Best Western Salinas Monterey

We came to this area for a spontaneous trip to explore beaches and hopefully find a spot to pitch a tent, lol. Of course, there was nothing available. So, it was pretty late that night, we were searching for stays for about 2 hours. All we wanted was to sleep wherever. And then found Best Western! When we arrived, the staff greeted us warmly and made us feel like valued guests! The service was exceptional. David, who checked us in, and Peter, who checked us out, were always available to assist us with any request or provide recommendations on local attractions. Their genuine care and personalized attention made me feel like I was not just another guest. I've been to 5-star hotels and never felt the way I did at Best Western. Believe me. The hotel's amenities were top-notch, with everything I needed and more. The complimentary breakfast was delicious, offering a variety of fresh options to start the day on a high note. You can even make your own fresh waffles!😍 The peaceful ambiance of the hotel added to the overall experience, allowing me to unwind and relax completely after a long trip! Thank you so much for everything. It was the best experience so far after I moved to the US one year ago!

The staff was above and beyond my expectations and made my stay over 15 days enjoyable. Most importantly when in evitable problems cropped up quickly and competently resolve those problems so they did not affect my stay. This included issues with the hardwired Internet and the timing of cleaning the room, they also help me with some unpredictable extensions of my stay due to work obligations. I cannot say enough about how good this staff is and I would never stay anywhere else in Salinas for this reason I have had the good fortune to stay in hotels of high-quality all around the world, including the four seasons, and I have never seen a better hotel staff.

Front desk staff was friendly and helpful. Room was clean and well cared for. The property was a bit dated and in a busy residential/commercial area but overall, for what we needed (a quick convenient place to stay for a short event) it was great. Prices are high, but that's expected for this area. I would recommend this hotel.

We liked everything! Rooms were clean and comfortable. Loved the shampoo and conditioner in the shower. Breakfast was decent. Eggs, sausage, waffles, oatmeal, pastries, fruit, juice and coffee. Lots to choose from. Lots of places to eat nearby as well. Just passing thru, so only stayed one night, but would definitely stay again!

Customer service was above and beyond. Love the guy that was working there. He was attentive and very nice. Breakfast was very good. Alot of good varieties.
