Very quiet location. Breakfast bar was very clean and had several good offerings.
We had an issue with getting into our bathroom as it was locked but the front desk man came right away and opened it.
4.1
Rude staff. Crime going on right outside. Further away from central Salinas than we thought. Terrible neighborhood.
4.1
The price.
The staff turned our room key off because we kept the trolley too long. We were there for a sudden funeral and a little disoriented. The staff was extremely rude. There were ladies of the night everywhere outside and street racing noise. The breakfast was just okay. No business center and the staff would not print a document for me.
4.1
The cleaning staff and the breakfast staff were so very polite and helpful. They were kind and helped us after they saw how rude the front desk person had been.
Upon checking in the individual behind the desk was so rude to us. We used booking.com to get our rooms and he seemed very unhappy that we went through a third party. He questioned why we got the rooms we got and told us that three people to a bed were not allowed (A father and his two small children who wanted to have a sleepover with their dad -- they were 5 and 7 years old). But the way he spoke to us was so disappointing and rude.

Location
The price for the room was very expensive. I was given a room right by the front desk and it was super noisy
4.1
Very very clean. Very helpful staff.
Location is next to fast food places. Traffic.

Bed was very comfortable, really nice shampoo/conditioner/body wash in the shower, and staff was GREAT!
There has got to be a better way to protect parking spot access when the drive-thrus next door (McDonalds and InNOut) are hopping. Both nights I returned to the hotel, I had to wait IN the drive-thru line for 15+ mins in order to slowly creep forward to a parking spot. It was nuts! Fortunately I brought earplugs for the noise - who knew the drive-thru was such a party all night! - but I do think Fri & Sat stays on the InNOut side of the hotel should be priced better than the rooms across the hall.
Lastly - the water pressure in the shower was really low. It was a tad disappointing. Other than that, had a good stay!

Granddaughter left her iwatch in the room. Housekeeping found it, turned it in and we were able to get it mailed back to us.

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!

Clean and convenient
however it has limited parking because they always have their back lot blocked off. It’s next door to a very busy InandOut burgers and Macdonalds. Also the shower barely had any pressure. I called the front desk but no help was offered? Only said I will let the general manager know?

Yep customer service is excellent, is very clean and quiet, the breakfast is complimentary and is good food

easy to find.
weird vibe. no parking. there was hair in the bathroom. “no tamper” tape on the smoke detector. list of charges of you “steal” anything posted on the wall. weird.
4.1
Hotel was great! Staff was so nice and generous, our room got upgraded free of charge (: and breakfast was so good, my partner did however find a small hair in his eggs but everything else was awesome, and the only complaint I would make really besides that was the power went out on the first day for a few hours, it was at no fault of the hotel though, there was an outage just in that area for a little while, and our stay wasn’t affected much other than it being a bit warm in the room at night, but only for a bit, other than that our stay was great (: would definitely visit again.
4.1
The staff was extremely kind and professional. Let me know if I needed anything, they're available 24 hours and to just call. The bed was comfortable and the room was nice and clean.
I wasn't thrilled with the location, right next to a McDonald's. My first stay I was in a room that was near the highway, which was a little noisy. My second stay I was midway and didn't hear anything 👍 The AC unit is a little bit loud, which was not great.
4.1
Service was great. Breakfast could. Use a little more choices for the hot meal..
The cost was a little high. I feel it could been cheaper

I was worried about cleanliness since you never know with some hotels but this one was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. the breakfast was good also and had variety.
we got a quiet call to our hotel room about 9:30 ish (we answered hello and no one said anything) I know checkout is at 11 and I didn’t appreciate being woken up by a call.

The front desk clerk Jay was really nice during check in. I had needed a store and he help give me options in the area since I was from out of town. He even checked with me after I returned from the store to make sure I found everything I needed. The room was great and clean super comfy bed. The breakfast had a lot of options and was good. It was my first time staying there and I would definitely return.
4.1
Location, staff, check in and out experience and clean
noise from the refrigerator and incredibly low pressure of the shower
