Love this Hampton Inn. Staff are super friendly and accomodating. The room was cozy and quiet. The beds are super comfy. Not too hard or soft. The TV was huge, has real cable with a great selection of channels and the remotes worked very well. The AC in the room ran great and I really appreciated it didn't make some weird noise like a lot of other hotel AC's. The hotel breakfast was ok, it was better when we stayed a few years ago. We were there three nights but only ended up eating it twice. The first morning the only meat option was a vegan sausage which was not good. Second morning they had sausage links. This hampton inn does a little egg omelette thing that is ok. They used to do bacon and scrambled eggs which is the best in our opinion, so we missed that. Still, the waffles are bomb. People complain about a homeless encampment...when we stayed there was a small encampment behind the hotel but upon closer inspection the encampment is actually separated from the hotel by a large ditch/water runoff thing. They are really a good distance from the hotel. We did notice a few tweakers here and there walking through the far end of the parking lot but never experienced and real trouble. Overall a great stay and will be staying here again!

bring back bacon and scrambled eggs!

Gustavo checked us in and was very kind and welcoming. He made sure we were happy and satisfied with our stay. Our room was beautiful, clean and comfortable. Breakfast was fresh and delicious with a great variety. I really love how complimentary coffee, tea and hot cocoa is always available in the lobby. Location was convenient. Facility was very clean and quiet. Many thanks to Gustavo for being so kind and friendly and the rest of the staff including the young woman who checked us out for making our stay wonderful, welcoming and comfortable. Can’t wait to stay there again.

Everything was great

Everything was amazing but I do feel very strongly that BOOKING.com needs to let guests know before they pay that there is a charge for incidentals. As this trip for me was very costly coming from down south I had a very tight budget but needed to stay somewhere that was close to the freeway and not in a horrible location like most other hotels in Salinas are. Luckily I had extra money for the incidental cost. I just think it’s important to set expectations! What would’ve happened if I had not had that extra money? I would’ve lost all my money I paid for the room because the money was non refundable. So please do better in sharing that type of information.

The hotel tried charging me for water bottles. That was stupid.. and the lady on the phone was very rude when I asked for the water.

Breakfast was good only thing food staff in the cafeteria area should continue to keep breakfast items filled even toward the end of the breakfast time people staying at the hotel we’re still going in to get breakfast looking for more breakfast items even last minute to grab some breakfast. Hotel is clean and a pleasant atmosphere staff was very friendly I would stay here again

Only thing I saw was breakfast items selections should be refilled even close to the breakfast time ending a lot of people were still coming looking for breakfast and they’re were very little selection left and coffee should always be available and not running out.

Breakfast was great! Thank you so much! The location was not great in that my friend had her bike rack stolen off of her car in the middle of the night even though it had two locks on it locking it to her vehicle. She had two bikes to transport the next morning to the bike race plus kids and gear. Major headache for her. She has another race coming up and is not able to bring a second bike because she cannot afford a bike rack. I liked that Starbucks was right there in the morning too. I am addicted to coffee.

Better lighting or security for parking lot?

The property was nice. The room was clean and the location was quiet or at least my room was.

I think the breakfast could’ve been a little bit better. I didn’t really care for the egg dish and the coffee seems to be situated outside the main eating area, which is kind of odd otherwise overall experience was fine.

Hope-the front desk attendant made this trip! You cannot put a price on Quality Staff! Hope was the reason why our stay was as wonderful as it was. Upon checkout; we watched her politely and professionally work with a dissatisfied guest; yet she managed to find a compatible solution for him! This property was under construction 🚧 but it still ran like a champ! Congratulations to your Staff & Management for creating a Win-Win for everyone involved!!! Sincerely, Steve B

Staff was Very friendly informative and loved when they were smiling!

The chair at the desk in rm 134 is so big that when my wife sat in it to put on her makeup it was difficult to get by to my bed by the windows. Desk should have been built on the far right side of the TV.

Well for me Breakfast was ok, but watery eggs don't get it , terrible I know there powered eggs but have someone maintain , now I had front desk tell me that they would have cleaners clean my room after they found a pair of underwear in closet but never showed up.

For the amount that is been spent there for stay real eggs for one , put some love in to it for the people and guaranty they will be back , WI -fi don't work there , now that should be free and not have to pay . Slow down traffic from star buck , i notice some rude people and almost accidents .

Staff was cordial and friendly

Children playing in the pool with balls and water guns. I got hit with the ball twice. They were also eating chips in the sauna. They were using the empty chips bags to get water and poured into the other pool. The door was left open the cold air was running in from the outside.
