Neither of these properties have yet been reported to the board 'as-is' but...

My guess for the Monterey property is the Holiday Inn Express Seaside with a 'missing' Fitness icon which it has previously been seen with. If you're interested in this property a better way to try to target this hotel is if you change your search to 2adults/2children a 2.5* hotel for the same price appears with the same amenities as above except also with the addition of a Fitness icon. This is how the Holiday Inn Express Seaside has been seen in the past so that would be my best guess for this one.

I don't have a guess for the Pacific Grove property but based upon the price, breakdown of reviews and percent recommended by HOTWIRE users, the Monterey property would be the better choice, imo.

Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.
