favorite hotels in/near Monterey, Calif.?

[firecat]

I'm thinking about going to Monterey in August to visit the Monterey County Fair and Wool Show and the aquarium. I'm having trouble deciding where to stay. Do you have a favorite hotel there? My budget is up to $250 per night but I'd rather pay less if I can find someplace decent for less. I don't care about being within "walking distance" of anything because my "walking distance" is only a couple of blocks, and I know I can park in a city lot to visit the aquarium. I prefer hotels to b&bs.

we stayed at... oh crap. i don't remember the name of it, but were really about 4 blocks from the aquarium. the price was "reasonable" and the room, was small but ok. we also went down without reservations on memorial day weekend.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the aquarium. one of my favorite places on earth.

clearly i need to make one of my pics a user pic now...

enjoy your stay.
