The bed is very big. The hotel is clean and quiet. There are self-service waffles, coffee and hot water for breakfast 24 hours a day. Although it is an American breakfast, it is filling. There is a very delicious Mexican restaurant nearby, which is about 5 minutes' drive from the hotel. The hotel is worth staying in and is suitable for 7 friends who drive on Highway 1. It is highly recommended.

This hotel is next to the highway, but you won't hear the traffic, it's quiet and clean Comfortable bed, simple hardware, 24-hour coffee/cold and hot water A deposit of 100 USD was collected. We stayed in 3 Holiday Inn hotels in different regions for 8 days. The first one deducted money, but I didn't see any payment on my credit card.... It should be refunded, right? It's better for everyone to pay attention. The breakfast is rich, with meat, eggs, juice, yogurt, fruit, hot and cold water, coffee, cereal, bread, muffins. Holiday Inn seems to have cinnamon rolls, which are delicious. Didn't have time to use the swimming pool and hot tub, not sure if they were clean Free parking

The hotel is in the town of Salinas. It feels like a small town surrounded by farms, and there are many motels around it. The hotel facilities are not ideal and the air conditioning is very noisy. I asked the front desk and they said all the rooms are the same.

We stayed overnight in Big Sur and Carmel Town, and went to 101 the next day. We had a simple American breakfast, which was OK. It was near the highway, so it was a little noisy. The deposit was processed slowly.

It meets the expectations of a Holiday Inn. The room is large and the bedding is comfortable. It’s not a surprise when choosing a holiday.
