Typical Salinas 💩
It's basically a place for prostitutes to turn tricks and tweakers to get his and be loud all night long, but hey it is Salinas.

If you’re in a pinch
Sunny D and Costco granola bars are not breakfast. Rooms could use a thorough deep cleaning. Mattresses probably cost 80 bucks new 10 years ago. Pillows are small square and stuffed full of ground up memory foam that sounds comfortable in theory but my neck is still sore even 24hrs after checkout. Husband and wife team who run it. The wife was nice. The husband gave the impression that I was bothering him when I asked him for extra towels. Conveniently located two blocks away from Starbucks.

Sliding Mattress
If you try sitting up on the bed to watch TV from a laying down position the mattress slides forward as to almost fall backwards.

The hotel was clean, but needs definite updating.
It needs a little updating because it’s old.

Paper thin walls and stark industrial neighborhood made this a place we wanted to leave in the rear view. The room was spare but clean. Nice TV. The walls are thin, and the landings echo, hear the

Bathroom sink backed up
On prior stays at Howard Johnson’s I had no problems, but this time the bathroom sink was backed up, and it took 15 minutes of running the water to get hot water! What a waste. There was mold on our sheets as well.

I'm very surprised that Howard Johnson would put their name on it. Must be recieving substantial payments for the name. Our visit was a emergency visit to the area otherwise I would have requested a refund and stayed elsewhere. Room wasn't entirely cleaned after last guest. Never stay again!
