Quality Inn Salinas
3.5/5107 Reviews
I made a reservation to stay at the Quality Inn in Salinas, CA; located at 144 Kern St | Salinas, CA, 93905, US. Our arrival to the hotels started off horrible. My family and I could not check in due to no one manning the front desk, the hotel lobby was closed. We waited 40 minutes for someone to come out and open the front lobby, where there are signs stating 24 hours services. I would also like to add we were not the only family waiting to be checkin in. Our arrival time was 1:30am. When the receptionist did come out she stated if her boyfriend wasn't parked out front in his car, and saw us in front of the lobby she wouldn't have come out. it was cleary visible she was woken from her sleep. I did call on Wednesday to let the front desk know I would be checking in late. It was the most awful feeling to wait out front of a lobby not knowing how to check in. I had called the front desk using the number listed on the window with no answer. I had never experienced this before. My family was not at ease once in the room. there were : hug stains on the floor the only chair in the room also was stained I found chewed blue gum on the floor. there were a trail of black ants on the only counter the beds looked like they had been laid in The door leading outside wasn't secure the tub would not drain. there was also brown stains on the walls to the restroom the mini fridge was corroded and didn't not close well the tv did not work My daughter had vomited a little and I had cleaned her face with a hand towel. That dirt towel was placed on the floor of the bathroom area to be picked up and the hotel cleaning staff hung the dirty vomited towel back up! My family and I ended up checking out 1 day early due to the disgusting circumstances. When I was checking out the lady at the front desk was the rudest hostess i have ever encountered. i told her why i was checking out however she didn't care for the news and did not apologize for the inconvenience. She had the poorest customer service. I also asked for the supervisor's name and she would not give it to me.
Super 8 by Wyndham Salinas
3.4/5103 Reviews
Breakfast is very simple. The hotel has a small open-air swimming pool, where children can bubble their feet after breakfast, and unknown water birds will fall by the swimming pool. It is not scary at all. Health is ok, much better than Days Hotel. I chose this because the hotels in Monterey during the summer are too expensive, the prices here are much more affordable and the service is good. When we checked out, we left a backpack in our room, and when we came back, the service staff found it directly.
Best Western Plus Salinas Valley Inn  Suites
3.7/580 Reviews
The room is not very big, no extra bed, the environment is not bad, the service is very good. Brushed twice, the front desk said that the amount of the second brush can be returned in 2-3 days. Today is the third day after check-out, and no refund has been received.
Motel 6 Salinas, CA - North Monterey Area
3.2/5103 Reviews
The scale is quite large and the price is not expensive, which is an advantage. The disadvantage is that the bathroom is not clean and there are hairs from the customers in front. I have already paid for it at Ctrip, but the front desk charged me at the beginning. Although it was unintentional, there were still problems with the management. I said I wanted a quiet room, because my mother had a heart attack when she was old, but she arranged for me to be on the road and changed it after repeated requests. This experience was not good. There is no breakfast, but that's fine, continental breakfast is only $5.
Hampton Inn & Suites Salinas
4.1/595 Reviews
Had car trouble on New Years Eve. Checked in and was delighted by front desk personal Michelle and Nadia. All smiles. John the night auditor too plenty of smiles. This is rare for a night auditor as they usually choose their job not having to deal with people. The upgrade in a/c and heating controls seem to have a few bugs still in them. TV screen was too small for the spacious room. Bathroom is nice and large too. Rug, really nice and thick carpeting makes it a dream to walk on. Though entranceway was not and naturally the bathroom too there was no coldness to ones barefoot touch. Kids rule. Perfect for the family as the breakfast included had everything one could wish for. Granola, when was the last time you enjoyed this at a hotel breakfast. Naturally the fruit loop container emptied fast. Orange juice was not, it dispensed cold water. Apples and oranges were supermarket size. Line at waffle maker. Hotel was sold out the previous three nights. There are none to match the quality here. One thing the bathroom could use would be rainforest shower heads. Hot water in about 2 minutes, as it is winter time. Lighting in the lobby and breakfast area supurb. Rooms were quiet, no outside street noise. Noise absent from adjoining rooms too. 3 not 2 large bath towels and accompanying smaller ones are nice. Clean hallways and rooms. Quick telephone response. One can see their smiles. .Pantry is well stocked and the dining area pleasantly decorated. Accompanying photos may be sideways as Trip Advisor has not corrected their bugs in the system. Elevator is quick, quicker than most of a three story abode. Entrance has two double doors and driveway is quite convenient Starbucks is at the corner. Quick trip to the Steinbeck Center. Secret, Cannery Row use to be called Ocean View until the publication of John Steinbeck's ”Cannery Row”. John was born in Salinas. Only until the early 1960's did the population of the Salinas Valley outnumber that of the Monterey Peninsula. John would not recognize it now. My grandfather S.F.B. Morse (Google) knew him well. John wrote his novels in Pacific Grove, a town grandad owned. Before he became famous for ”The Grapes of Wrath,” he wrote a column for a San Francisco newspaper entitled, ”Migrant Gypsies.”. Salinas would not be Salinas if it were not for agriculture. All the lettuce America eats comes from Salinas. Easy freeway 101 access, connecting to the Monterey exit. Salinas is the county capital too. Hotel is safe no car break ins at night. Microwave and large personal refrigerator are handy especially if you have kids. Train stops here. For those who enjoy the Coast Starliner from Los Angeles to San Francisco the hotel is 5 Uber minutes away. Not much to do in Salinas at night, so relax here. Gordon the general manager and Larissa the guest service manager will do everything to assure that your stay is a pleasant one. Once you stay, except for car trouble you wil
Motel 6-Salinas, CA - South - Monterey Area
2.9/51 Reviews
If you're looking for a place that's reasonably priced and clean and convienient, this is it. Don't expect bells and whistles. The rooms are small compared to other similar hotel/motels, but it's right off the highway and there is a Denny's and Jack in the Box right next door. The staff at the front desk are awesome! Lisa and Angela were very friendly and helpful (five stars for them!). Again, pretty basic place but our room was clean every day with fresh towels and we had no issues.
