Last hotel left with rooms available...now I know why. Exterior had the Bates Motel feel to it. The exterior paint is peeling, you can see broken windows from the outside, who would want to stay in a place that looks like that from the outside?? At least the lobby seemed a little friendlier in decor. Kevin, the manager who stays... More

when we arrived, our first thought was to leave again, because the place looked all shabby from the outside. Unfortunately we had already paid the room in advance. the guy from the reception suggested to pay another 5 bucks for a so called "deluxe room". i'm going to be straight forward with this: it was a dirty hell, the bathroom...

I was heading to Spirit West Coast and found this to be the cheapest hotel on priceline. So I booked it and then started to take a closer look at the "shared bathrooms". My first thought was what did I get myself into this time. But when I got there I was so suprised and felt very blessed. First of... More

In the heart of historic Salinas, the very low-priced Traveler's Inn provides the most basic of accommodations for those who might want to avoid a cookie-cutter experience and support a 30 year old family business. If you have the patience, you'll be ok for a short stay, though honestly, one night was more than enough for me. Kevin, the young... More

I enjoyed my stay: the Manager was friendly and helpful; I received a much more personal welcome than I experienced in Motels where, frankly, you're just one more of a number to be processed. And it was central - as an independent traveller relying (largely) on public transport it was much better placed than out of town More

I was searching for a hotel in a hundred mile area. This is the only one that had a room available. I see why. This place reminded me of my days on skid row many years ago. The hot water was cold and the cold water was hot. My wife flushed the toilet and everything came back up. I would... More
