The beds are super comfortable! As a senior citizen with heath issues, that is major! Kitchen staff was thoughtful and accommodated our vegan needs. Breakfast was quite good both days. The in unit kitchen was adequate, with full size fridge, cook top, dishwasher and all pots, dishware and utensils needed. The location is great and many options for shopping and meals were a short walk away. I was staying with my adult developmentally disabled, brain impaired son. We were riding out a storm that had a potential for flooding, loss of power and evacuation. When first suite did not meet our specific needs due to configuration, a helpful staff member went out of the way to relocate us to a more suitably spacious suite, at no additional cost to us. It is very welcome, when faced with our personal challenges, that we are treated with empathy and thoughtfulness by any business/corporation, rather than treated with impatience or made to feel burdensome. While not marketed as such, I will be recommending this hotel, as a welcoming place to stay, a respite, to other members of our support group. Many issues around travelling with an adult special needs child, like adequate space, separation, privacy, while still being in one secure unit, are resolved by staying here. It is very much appreciated and will make Residence Inn our first choice in the future. In fact, I will be returning periodically, simply to take a much needed break from housework and stress; allowing the opportunity to focus on quality time playing cards, board games, taking walks and watching movies with my son, in a safe, clean, home like environment. While the location was only minutes from home, it was a mini, stress free vacation, providing respite for us both. Something families with limitations and special needs, like ours, seriously need. I look forward to returning.Thank you Residence Inn Staff!

The Steinbeck Center is a must.

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!!
