Howard Johnson by Wyndham Salinas

Terrible Rooms look recently remodeled but are dirty. Ironing board missing in one room. Another iron did not work. Mold in the bathroom. Photos on different profiles show a breakfast bar but was told there was none when we arrived. “Women of the night” operate out of this hotel. We booked several rooms here for a youth group trip for the Salinas and Monterey areas. Our group has several teenagers. One night as we came back to the hotel, we had to pass by two women coming into the parking lot wearing nothing but a bra top, thong and high heels. The women appeared to be on their way to complete their nightly business. Don’t stay here.

nasty The whole place was nasty. trash everywhere outside. Burns and holes in the room. The trash can had been stolen from a holiday inn. The TV in the room had been mounted crooked on the wall. But the base for the TV was still bolted to the dresser. The lamp was missing its shade. There was even an empty bottle of KY lube in the bed side table along with a cut up ELF makeup container.

Bad, just bad. Also for the $$, it robbery. Let’s start with the fact that this not a hotel. It’s a motel with cheap interior. The sinks don’t have stoppers, the dry doesn’t work, the elevator is shut down from evening to early am, room smell like pot, not well cleaned and party central on the evening with “ladies of the night”. The hotel.com, Expedia, etc should let unsuspecting people from get their money back!!!!

Think before you book this hotel The place from outside looks well manicured, when I went into lobby to check in, reception area was clean and the check in process went very smooth. The room had an overwhelmed smell of floor cleaner, yet the room was very dirty all over. The bathroom towels had yellow stains, the hand towel looked like were been used with wrinkles and black spots on them and the face towel were grayish white. Yes, I did shower respite that, ( I travel with my own towels.) after I showered walked around the room barefoot and my feet got filthy black _ the floor were very dirty. The door was filthy too. ____. I did not read the reviews until today. As for the community service worker activity that other people have mentioned in their review 100% true. Is a very busy hotel from that aspect. You might want really consider staying at a Hayward Johnson by Wyndham. This was my first time staying at one of their hotels and most definitely i will think about it twice before I book with them.

Very shady and questionable hotel. Bed were comfortable but the rest of the stay felt unsafe. Area is surrounded by homeless and prostitutes. Many people lucking throughout the property late in the evening around bedtime. Don't count on any coffee or juice when you wake up. They advertise it as an option but its a lie. For your safety and piece of mind, look elsewhere.
