Salinas Hotel Guide - Northridge Mall hotels in Salinas, United States of America.

"The staff was friendly."

"Portola is great! We stay there whenever we go to Monterey, the hotel is great, the employees couldn't be more helpful, the location is the best in walking distance to so many things which i really love. Don't hesitate on booking this place."

"The breakfast is a brown bag with an orange and a mini yogurt. The hotel is really rooms attached to a gas station, there’s no lobby. You check in inside the gas station. The toilet paper holder was a public bathroom locked holder. Very loud because of the gas station over night. "

"Room was clean and cozy. Staff were friendly and helpful. I liked the location, there was so much within walking distance. Downsides: the old hotel has a weird layout, it’s hard to navigate and although there is an elevator, I still had to drag luggage up some stairs and through narrow corridors. No onsite parking so you have to pay extra to park, and again you have to carry luggage around."

"Stayed here during IMSA race weekend at Laguna Seca — at $120+/night, expectations were modest but the value still felt like a stretch. Amenities are bare bones: soap only, no mini fridge (available for an extra nightly charge), and no housekeeping for our four-night stay — you have to swap towels and sheets yourself at the front desk during the day. That said, the room was genuinely clean, and as a non-smoker who is very sensitive to cigarette smell, I can honestly say there was zero smoke odor — a pleasant surprise for a Motel 6. If you're just looking for a place to crash during a busy race weekend and can manage without the extras, it gets the job done."

"The dragging of bags in & out of buildings was terrible, we had to take an elevator & walk through 2 buildings to get to our room & go outside between buildings- some buildings did not connect making it even harder to find the room, would not recommend this for mostly this reason- people move & helpful, room clean & quiet"

"The room was ok for the price. Inside was tired, needs updating. The bed was comfortable, it’s a shame there is a throw as part of the bedding which obviously doesn’t get washed after each guest, just the sheet underneath does. It was noisy with guests standing outside of the room talking on the phone, but again - we didn’t expect much for the price. Very close to shops, cafes and restaurants in the industrial park across the road. All in all it served a purpose for one night, if you don’t want to splash out more money on accommodation."

"Room was clean and staff was friendly. Furniture is ok but looking dated. There was a group of us, and we all got rooms close to each other. Thanks!"

"This hotel feels misleading and absolutely not worth the money. We paid extra specifically for a bay view room with a balcony and instead were put in a cheap room overlooking the parking lot with no balcony whatsoever. That is not a minor inconvenience — it is literally not the room category we booked and paid for. To make things worse, the hotel barely provided basic toiletries. No lotion and missing standard amenities you would expect even from lower-priced hotels. The entire stay felt low quality and poorly managed. Parking was another joke: extremely limited spaces while still charging $15 per night. Paying extra for downgraded accommodations and inconvenient parking made the whole experience frustrating from start to finish. If you book an upgraded room here, don’t assume you’ll actually receive it. We definitely did not."
