Do not waste your money at this Motel! Cu

Being with my family and proximity to the Ocean is what made this Motel appealing. Salinas is a beautiful town, lots to see.

The customer service at this hotel was horrible! There was no one at the desk tending it's customer's. The so called employee who calls herself manager was asleep at 11 am for check out. I had to ring the bell more than once to get someone to help me.I called more than once to ask some questions and they would pick up the phone and hang it up. Lastly, they didn't return all my deposit because there was fingerprints on the TV.

"Be(a)st 5 Motel: Low Rates"; No Amenities.

I only stayed 1 night, per my original plans; they granted my advance request thru Booking.com for room on 2nd floor. I never used my laptop (only my M. phone on the network), so I didn't bother trying the WiFi, if they had any. Rates are low as advertised; this is brown-bag, no-frills lodging; almost anything can be put up with for a night. Used earplugs to sleep well due to room / Motel next to Hwy. 101; bed firm but comfy, sheets, towels, & shower stall clean; but bring your own fave shampoo, conditioner, lotion, & food/drink to eat in. No mini-fridge, microwave oven, or coffeemaker. Fan in bathroom exhausts damp air with light on. Used AC unit on fan-alone mode only, to circulate & freshen air about room; kept window locked shut & curtains drawn for privacy & noise/light reduction, which worked well for helping sleep.

I was able to get some rest and go on my way.

It was much cheaper than all the other options in the area.

Bare bones motel. Furniture well worn. Room was small and it had no mini fridge.

. Nothing other than it was the cheapest in town

I paid in advance online but when I went to check in, the woman said it wasn't an accepted form of payment. Never heard of such a thing. Is this a scam? I paid a second time. Asked about a refund and she just kept repeating that I needed to call Booking.com. It was supposed to be a room w/1 queen size bed. There was what appeared to be a full size bed and a large area where obviously a second bed once stood, but now there was nothing. No phone, no rack to hang clothesThere was no TElectricity went out a couple times in the night there was off all morning which method heater except when they felt they should be paying me to stay there

Miese Absteige -such a bloody experience Never again

Absolut nichts . Wir müssen Booking com raten, diese Angebot entsprechend des Zustands auszubieten oder zu streichen . Dreckiges Gebäude. Counterfenster zur Concierge blieb verschlossen, durchreichen der Kreditkarte und der Zimmerkarte durch Fensterschlitz, wohl als Überfallschutz in unsicherem Umfeld und klientelangepasst . Laminat -Photo -rissig und aufgequollen. Tür zum Bad eingetreten. Dusche lief über . Kein Staub gewischt -Photo. Keine Frühstücks Möglichkeit in der Nähe. Der Highway 101 nebenan laut und Carmel , Monterey und Elkhorn sludge berechtigen bei der gebotenen Minderleistung nicht den hohen Preis der Absteige.

Der hohe Preis , das ganze Angebot. Nie vorher so ein Angebot auf dieser Seite erlitten. Nie wieder so ein Urlaubseinstieg . Wir blieben nur, weil nach Flug zu müde zur Weiterreise .

Gammel, achterstallig onderhoud, kapote lampen
