Hampton Inn & Suites Salinas

I spent a few weeks at this location while my home was getting work done. Rooms were clean and all the staff were very accommodating. Special thanks to Paulina and Rosa! They made my stay much more pleasant and all of their food was delicious! -Ryan

First off the rooms are clean and very nice. The front desk staff are wonderful and very friendly. But now there’s a new manager who seems to be cutting back on cost.

She didn't even consider my request even though I am a gold member and there were other rooms available. There was a long hair on my bed when I got to the room and overall the room wasn't very clean. The toilet bowl was dirty and I ended up bleaching the seat with wipes myself. you could see where the grout on the walls and floor were clean under the sink and black everywhere else. The elevator smelled strongly of weed and there was trash juice on the floor of the elevator and on the walls of the elevator. At breakfast, I saw the serving lady transfer the egg omelet and sausages by hand to the serving dish. The front d
