Within a year, we have stayed at this location a dozen times. We love the suite arrangement and love the location although there isn't much to do in Salinas really. It's always clean and comfortable. Front desk is always pleasant to converse with. One nagging negative is the very crowded breakfast arrangement. There's no place to set your coffee cup... More

I'm platinum with Marriott and this is one of the worst properties I've stayed at. I think the floor, ceiling and walls are made of papier mache since you can easily hear average level conversations on all sides, and the bed slopes to the bathroom. The room is adequately clean so I can't give it a 1. But to top... More

My husband had a last minute trip on the west coast so we packed the kids and went along without reservations or any idea of what we would be doing. We rented a car and drove down the coast. It was a busy weekend on the coast and all of the hotels were either booked or upwards of $400 a... More

Staff were wonderful, especially in the breakfast room. Very good breakfast buffet (included in room rate) with many choices, including fresh fruit, real oatmeal, belgian waffles, and other hot items. Also liked the buffalo wings and salad bar at the social hour. Two-bedroom suite was fine, a bit smaller than other Residence Inn locations where we've stayed. Appointments are in... More

Stayed here with my family of 5, my mother and my nephew. We had a 2 room suite with 2 queens and a sofa bed. The hotel provided a pack-n-play for our 2 yr. old. The 7 of us fit perfectly even though the website states that it only sleeps 5. Very clean. Nice pool. Wonderful breakfast. A bit of... More

Stayed here the night of August 6, 2011. We had a little problem but it was fixed very fast by the daytime manager. She is incredible. She made things more than right. It is a nice place, clean and very comfortable. I highly recommend this establishment More

Rooms were very spacious and generally comfortable. The sofa in the living room was "saggy" and needs replacing. Breakfast was good. Staff was very friendly and helpful. More

First the last review dated May 26th is a scam, a kid doing a prank, someone just writing bad reviews or someone paid to write bad reviews. This hotel is not old, a dump or out of the 70's. It's just the opposite. This is a great new, comfortable and very clean hotel. It's rated #3 in Salinas but no... More
