Reviews for Best Western Salinas Monterey

Review 1:The only negative comments is that the t.v. was set a little low for comfortable viewing from anywhere other then sitting on the end of the bed. Also, the side chair was more like a dining room chair, not a chair for relaxation.

Review 2:Clean, comfortable and well worth the affordable price. Our room was very nice. The breakfast was the standard fare. I enjoyed the little chocolate muffins and the yogurt the best.

Review 3:breakfast very basic. Only hard boiled eggs for protein. In the fridge. Would prefer sausage, bacon, links, hash brown, and scrambled eggs.

Review 4:I thought it was cool I got the same room twice somehow. Being right next to inn out is really great.

Review 5:The location is a strip of hotels, but that must a city decision butoverall the hotel was very clean and the staff excellent

Review 6:Larry who checked me in was very friendly and detailed, we even got 2free nice cold waters @check in.

Review 7:Pool and spa were dirty, pavement around spa was crawling with ants. Our room got cleaned the first day - never again the whole time we were there (4 days). The night clerk the night we checked in was pretty abrupt with us - she didn't offer any real pertinent information such as hours for breakfast or whether there was a charge for bottled water. Breakfast was not what we've come to expect from Best Western.

Review 8:Comfortable beds, ample parking

Review 9:Really bad neighborhood.

Review 10:The rooms were big, basically sound proof and the staff didn't hassle me about being a day sleeper and not wanting to be bothered.

Review 11:The location; don't know about the rest of Salinas but the bit we saw was 'doors locked, keep some speed on the car' type. I'm not timid, but I decided against going into any fastfood place or convenience store after buying a couple of sandwiches.

Review 12:The hotel itself is pretty standard BW - ok for an overnight stop.

Review 13:Coffee was good, yet the breakfast was "skimpy" at best. Could easily put in a small serving dish of eggs and bacon or sausage. And, there's room for two waffle makers as well. Breakfast was less than what you get at a Motel 6 - really.

Review 14:Excellent beds - great sleep. And, quiet as well. Smaller property, but kept up very well. Staff were attentive and their employee groups were knowledgeable and worked well together.

Review 15:the room had a smoker before us, and so smelled terrible. There was no facilities to make tea or coffee. The AC was very noisy.

Review 16:The swimming pool was good.

Review 17:They need more than one bathroom in a suite. They need a mirror in each room in a suite, not just one total mirror. Noisy air conditioner

Review 18:close to freeway clean well lit

Review 19:Some people may find it a bit noisy since it is on a strip of hotels/restaurants, but I wasn't bothered by it at all and everything really seemed to quiet down by about 10:30 pm.

Review 20:I really enjoyed staying here. It was in a decent drive's distance from lots of great sights to see, but was much more accommodating in price than staying in many of those places. The staff was very kind, and the room was comfortable.

Review 21:The staff was very rude & nosey. The laundry closes at a certain time & they tell you when you can & cannot have guests. This was my first & last time staying at a best western. I will continue to stay with my family at the Hamptons from here on out. The Hamptons are very accommodating for families & their customer service is unremarkable, unlike the best western. Our stay at the best western was extremely terrible!

Review 22:here was no blanket for the bed. I did ask for one and was given one. The door did not close completely. I had to push it to latch.

Review 23:helpful staff made my stay better.

Review 24:Bathroom was cell-like with loud exhaust fan. Full length mirror directly across from toilet was nightmarish.

Review 25:Nice bed, comfortable room. Surprise: Fitness center, pool and spa. Good breakfast made better by a warm friendly attendant. Just a hop to McDonalds and In 'n Out Burger.

Review 26:Important aspects were great . What I didn't like fell Apon minor details Breakfast nook was small not enough room for. 10 kids and adults Refrigerator in the room was not ready for use we had to plug it in Water pressure of shower was slightly low On check in they asked me to put a permit on the dash of my car ( not immediately but if I didn't do it then i would of forgot ) In and out burger and McDonalds next door very tempting :)

Review 27:Location - immediately on/off 101 Quietness Building architecture is really nice Pool/hot tub Serves a breakfast at 6am Refrigerators in the room Comfy beds/ awesome pillows Great staff Plug Outlets on lamp base for easy charging of electronics

Review 28:A bit pricy for an older establishment, but they are capitalizing on location. It needs a major facelift badly...Staff was friendly enough, but a bit pompous when I tried to check-in.

Review 29:It was available...very good location

Review 30:Generic hotel. Good soundproofing but wow is it right next to freeway. Not a place to go walking around sightseeing.

Review 31:A solid hotel good value. Staff were very nice and attentive. Excellent management and good free continental breakfast. We were late and they were kind enough to give us no pressure to finish up so they could clean and put away the food.

Review 32:There is a full length mirror on the inside of the bathroom door, directly in front of the toilet. No one wants to see that. The fact that the bedroom of this suite has a door, this mirror should be moved.

Review 33:We had the suite and it was very comfortable. The Wi-Fi was excellent. The only thing we had of the breakfast was coffee, so we can't comment on its quality.

Review 34:Hotel was nice clean. Staff was nice and helpful. Room and bed was very comfortable and spacious. Very quiet . Close to gas station, in n out , and Mcdinalds.

Review 35:I pulled up to this place and because it is called Best Western Salinas Monterey it is false advertising. 30 minutes from Monterey and no where near the coast. It is the equivalent as calling a hotel Compton Beverly Hills which is also within 30 minutes.

Review 107:Clean Room

Review 108:We were on our 43rd Wedding Anniversary vacation. The manager knew this and upgraded us to one of their suites. This was very unexpected and very appreciated.

Review 109:The windows did not keep the freeway noise out. The pool should be indoors. It is right off the freeway. I didn't get my wake up call and was late!

Review 110:Attentiveness of staff, the room was clean

Review 111:The hotel is within yards of the 101 with the swimming pool right next to it. It's fine if you are a business man, not so good if you are a tourist.

Review 112:The rooms are very good, staff very helpful and facilities good.

Review 113:Didn't like the location of our room as it was facing the main parking lot which prevented us from keeping our windows open. Also shared the lot with a fast food restaurant which wasn't the greatest view

Review 114:Room was comfortable, staff friendly and very prepared for our arrival, breakfast good but would have liked more variety and not so many bread products.

Review 115:Floor seems abit icky. There was an eye lash on one of the towels and that's not ours cuz we don't apply fake lashes.

Review 116:Location and like how they gave bottle water when greeted.

Review 117:We were greeted at the desk with water after a long drive. How refreshing! Excellent assistance with finding a resturant that was still open. The room was clean and cheerful and we were just blocks away from where we wanted to be the next morning.

Review 118:We requested a room away from the highway noise, yet we were placed in a room nearest the highway. The free continental breakfast was mediocre. I have stayed at other 3-star hotels with better continental breakfast. The supply of condiments was limited to cream cheese and two different flavors of jelly. The pastries were mini muffins.

Review 119:The hotel was near a McDonalds. The room was cleaned promptly every day during our stay.

Review 120:Location! Next to freeway made it loud and it's not the best area.The local cvs required 2 security guards, one inside and one outside. TThe name is deceiving as well. I didn't research carefully enough,but when I saw Monterey in the name I assumed it was in or really close,but it was not. :( I was happy they refunded my 2nd night since it wasan anniversary we were celebrating. We moved to a place in Monterey,much better location.

Review 121:The bed was comfy! The waffles for breakfast.

Review 122:Dated decor.

Review 123:Stayed during high demand week. Expensive for that reason. The most clean hotel I've been to in this price range. Excellent staff. Very clean. Carpets need updating.
