Quality Inn Salinas

What a dump! No Quality at this inn, save yourselves!!! Not sure where to start with this but here goes..... The place is a dump. Dirty, dilapidated, kinda gross. Reserved 2 rooms for a night in June 2024. First impression, the lobby is not very inviting but hey, I'm not staying in the lobby and this is a "Quality" Inn, right? Room #1 had a missing smoke detector, a creepy unsealed attic access directly above the bed (peek-a-boo, i c u!), used tissues in the ice bucket, and used soap bars in the shower. The toilet handle is flopping around but still flushes the bowl (whew!), however when I saw the hairs on the bathroom floor I knew I would not be taking a shower here. The plastic mattress protector under the sheets makes for a crinkly, noisy night of sleep. Room #2 had a peculiar smell to it, the same plastic mattress protector, but what really set it off was the window. I'm not sure what year it was that it shattered, but it had been long enough for about an inch of putrid, rusty water to accumulate between the panes. Open that one at your own risk. Breakfast.... no way I was going to participate in that. But I'm certain it was delicious. Checkout was a breeze because the office is closed in the morning. You just drop your room key in the slot and hope for the best. Thankfully the final bill was ok. In summation I do not recommend this motel. The Motel 6 next door, and the Super 8 across the street looked a lot nicer. And both of those had pools too.

If traveling, preferably stay somewhere else Although more affordable than other hotels of the area this was the least satisfactory of all our stays during a week in california. The mattress was covered in plastic which made me sleep very hot. The free breakfast was of only fair quality but was plentiful. The breakfast room could only accommodate about 7 people maximum and was very cramped at that level. Our room failed to have a hair dryer and it took a day for staff to find us one. Traffic in front of the hotel was heavy in mornings and evenings making access challenging. The room was normally functional other than these complaints.

Staff rude and abusive, and worst experience ever The front desk guy +tall and bald) worked at night with tall bald head was rude when I asked the thermostat on the wall not turning on. He replied rudely. I tried many times before I even called him. He said 'if you do not know how to use phone, how to turn on TV and thermostat you should not book the room. I do n't have time to go to your room" . I was shocked. And he came to room using abusive language and intimidating "what is this, now it is working " wow!! I did not feel safe there already and checked out middle of the night. He refused to give mr the receipt and said " why did you book here" . I just ignored him and came to different hotel. It was a nightmare.

I'd Rather Be Somewhere Else Upon checking in I found the floor to have some kind of dreck scattered around; it hadn't been swept or mopped. The manager offered housekeeping in the morning, a different room, or check out. I cleaned the floor (vinyl flooring) with a towel, making it liveable. I can overlook the broken tub handle, the falling-off-the-wall telephone, the falling-out-of-the-wall toilet paper holder, the broken coffee maker with grounds in the water compartment--but breakfast was the last straw. The 6:30 to 9:30 breakfast was non-existent; the door to the breakfast room was locked at 6:40 and 6:50 and the office was closed with no one in sight. At least the bed was comfortable and there were no bedbugs.

lousy management Price doesn’t justify the quality. The motel is loud, dirty and is in need of renovation. It doesn't meet the 'Quality Inn' standard. If you pay cash check the receipt! In my case it was an empty form without amount for the stay. E-mails to the manager in this respect remains unanswered. A reminder mail ended up with the blocking/blacklisting of my e-mail adress. Conclusion: I got no valid receipt, my payed stay was cancelled by the motel, I got no points for my Choice account and the motel manager is not reachable - neither by e-mail nor by phone.
