Nothing. From a distance it looks decent and as you get closer you notice how dirty it is. Once we got out of the car we noticed a lot of traffic from random people walk-in and out of rooms and across the street. The parking lot was dirty and halls had trash in the corners. You can tell they don’t up keep the cosmetics.

There were some protein choices at breakfast as well as yogurt and cereals. Apples were available. My room was clean and comfortable. It was divided into two areas. There was a couch and TV as you entered. The second space which was separated by the refrigerator, microwave and table had the bed and another TV. There was plenty of light and electrical switches. I appreciated the two living areas which made it seem more than a hotel room.
It is very close to the Steinbeck Center.

The value was great, and it met my expectations. The staff was very friendly as well. I’d stay again.
The Steinbeck Center is a must. I had breakfast at a local coffee shop on Main street, a few blocks away from the Steinbeck center. I can't remember the name, but the food was good and affordable. The staff was great. Seems like a draw for the locals.

A little farther from Monterey than I would have liked.
A little farther from Monterey than I would have liked. Took 45 minutes with traffic. Went to Fujiyama Japanese Restaurant in salinas. The chefs make it interactive, So much fun to watch them prepare the meal, the food was fantastic and my 8 year old loved it.

There is a one day reason to stay in Salinas, John Steinbeck Museum. Unfortunately booking.com is trying to charge us for TWO Nights. I am on the verge of never using OR recommending them again. Please booking.com refund us for the night we did not stay at Salinas Best Western. We only stayed the ONE night .

I came to Salinas in September of 2020 as a traveler for nuclear medicine. I was to be in Salinas for 2 months at Natividad hospital. At first I was disappointed that Monterey Car Week and other car events had been cancelled. I heard of the Salinas Cars and Coffee on Main Street near Starbucks. I met some really great guys there as well as going on a cruise held by the guys at Deadend Magazine. I have a newer muscle car but everyone was friendly and great! I was asked to extend my contract for another month and I agreed. It was sad to leave in November and return to my home in Las Vegas.
I am currently back in Salinas working at Natividad. They requested me specifically while a staff member was off on medical leave. I was excited to have the opportunity to return and see everyone again.
I love the city and the car culture here. Everyone was very helpful and friendly. As an example, I had issues with my brakes and one of the guys offered his tools, garage, and time to change them out for me.
The weather is great and there is plenty to do and see here. Especially if you are into automobiles. There have been some vehicles here I have not seen since I was a kid. I have enjoyed my second stay just as much or more! It’s almost like a second home and I have made some great friends!!

For us, being a block over from family is most convenient.
For us, being a block over from family is most convenient. Good breakfast at the hotel. Everything in the hotel is clean and kept up. If you have a concern, the front desk is always accommodating.
Our favorite spot is a brewery on Main St. near the Steinbeck Center.
Salinas is centrally located to reach Monterey and Carmel within 30-45 minutes.

The Steinbeck Center is informative, well laid out.
The Steinbeck Center is informative, well laid out. I enjoyed the typewriting experience.
Please visit The Steinbeck home and support the volunteers who maintain and run the beautiful home all year round.
Patria is a wonderful restaurant in Old Town, serving Italian, German and Italian inspired food in a beautiful building.
Great bookstores.

It is very close to the Steinbeck Center.
Lots of homeless and questionable people in the parking area and out front. Cops were called one morning by staff to get homeless folks out of the breakfast area, the staff lady even locked the front door. Furniture in the dining area is old and in poor shape. TV is very small and the connection was bad, it kept freezing up. The carafe for the coffee maker in the room was missing, never was it replaced. Upgrades are really needed. I don’t recommend this hotel.
The wagon wheel was a pleasant surprise it was a very cool place very old school hotel very clean and the location was not that far from the free way. I would stay here again and the price was very reasonable. you should check it out and it was very safe....
We did not like anything with this hotel. It was so dirty discussing. However, If you are an ant you will love it. We found lots of them. Especially in the morning we found these species in the shoes. A lot of them.
The staff was wonderful! Super friendly, helpful and attentive. They really made my stay a wonderful experience. There is safe, gated parking behind the hotel. Would definitely stay here again.
The room was great and clean also. Pretty much everything was perfect! It suited all of our needs. There were also plenty of clean towels and the refrigerator was a nice size.
Host was very timely in his responses. Beds were very comfortable and spacious. We appreciated that there were two bathrooms and a great view in the lounge room!
