“Nasty Room, poor location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 July 2010

Right on 101, tons of truck traffic 24/7, very noisy.
The second floor room had cigarette burns on the edges of all the furniture, the mini fridge didn't work, the rooms air was turned clear down and it was still hot, we heard another lady in the lobby complaining about that as well.
The lobby was clean and neat, desk help was nice, if you are going to Monterey stay somewhere else.

“Love it!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 June 2010

We stayed 1 night after coming from Santa Cruz beach, we were hungry, sleepy and in need of a shower, this place was everything and more then what we needed at the time! The price was perfect for us and room was clean. The next morning we had the complimantry breakfast which was just perfect for what we needed to start our day! Thanks for the lovely stay!

“Someone went into my room and rifled through my belongings.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 December 2009

person found this review helpful

It was a clean, pleasant-looking, inexpensive motel. I arrived at 9:00 PM, asked for a restaurant referral, dropped my bags in my room, and went to dinner. I arrived back at Super 8 at 10:00 and discovered someone had been in my room and had gone through my things. I had taken everything of value with me, so as far as I know nothing was stolen. I called the front desk and the man who answered was fidgety and said he would call me back. He never did, and needless to say it was hard to sleep. The next morning I went to the front desk and spoke with the woman there. She acted surprised and said it wasn't possible because they had cameras. I asked if we could look at the tape. She said no. I wrote Motel 8 describing everything that had happened and still got no response. Everyone has completely ignored me. I think this is a very serious matter. I will think twice before ever staying at a Super 8 again.

“great stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 May 2007

The vagabond inn is completely acceptable for a place to sleep. I stayed there for a weekend and had no problems. The room was clean, and well kept. The people at the front desk were kind and quick to help. We asked for extra towels and pillows and they came very quickly. The inn is right next to the freeway, but the sound from it was just dull white noise I don't think it would be a problem for anyone except maybe the lightest of sleepers. There was also working wireless internet in the rooms that was complimentary. Overall, the stay was great, convenient, and problem free.

  • Liked — complimentary wireless internet
  • Disliked — no spa at pool

“speak for it self”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 October 2006

being here at this hotel made it home away from home,The rooms were neatly prepared, the desk clerk was really helpful with information for each of our destinations as we vacationed here in salinas. It amazes me to see others review on how they did not like there stay. As a frequent traveler we all make reservations, within that time of making the reservation there are questions asked about the hotel from the price, to is the pool heated or not. I was waiting my turn to get checked in and this guest who was checked in by her reservation was complaining how much she was paying. When it comes to reservations each client has the right to choose either yes or no if they want to stay. This was a nice hotel, of course hwy 101 is right next to the hotel but why are they getting checked in if they already relize the freeway is right there. every hotel has its possitives and negatives. When I was checked in I looked for the friendliness of staff and the lobby being well cleaned. I recieved both so I would stay here again.
