Best Western Plus Forest Park Inn

After being out in the cold November weather it was such an amazing experience walking into our hotel room and feeling it toasty warm with the fireplace on. We did get woken up at 8:30am with housekeeping knocking and about to come in with their keys but that was our bad for not putting up the “Do not disturb” sign the night before. Overall rooms were very clean and cozy. The hotel itself is very well maintained and has a nice appeal. We didn’t make it for their free breakfast. But Right across the parking lot of the hotel is a big bear diner. We would definitely stay again.

This was my first time staying here. I usually stay at the Hilton Garden Gilroy. Rooms were great. Not 4 star but I didn't expect 4 star. Good sized, clean room. Even had a little balcony. Breakfast was complimentary and pretty good. I appreciated it considering Hilton Garden charges you for breakfast and costs more to stay there without as convenient of a location to things. The big bummer about this hotel is the lobby is in a separate building, so to go eat breakfast, you have to leave the building, walk a (very short distance), eat, and then walk back to the other building. I'd still stay here in the future. Staff was great and there was good parking.

So I had to come down to Salinas for a funeral. My Cousin lost his som Josh Hostetter. Career firefighter in Salinas. I made it as far as Gilroy from Northern California. I just want to say that Isaiah at the front counter was warm and accommodating. We got a room and the ground floor as requested and it was spotless. Upon checkout Vanessa was understanding and made exception for us and even offered up Chocolate bars for the rest of our journey. The breakfast was on point as always at Best Western. Thank you all for taking care of us.

Stayed for the NorCal Ren Faire. The only thing I would say is that the rooms are far from the front desk, so prepare to drive to your overnight parking space and room. Rooms are great though I don’t understand why there were two spotlight lights on the entry hallway. It seemed overkill but I didn’t use those lights once I found out it was blinding! Beds and bathroom were clean, though there was a minor ant issue in the bathroom. Scouts were looking around.

Rooms are spacious and clean (though I called management's attention to the stained upholstered chairs). Beds are comfortable and real food at breakfast is appreciated (though need better coffee and half-and-half -- otherwise, Fifth St. Coffee Roasting is great!). Could use more sound-proofing, given noisy, thoughtless guests who enter/leave late/early. All in all, an excellent motel.

This is a very nice, clean, and quiet motel. There is real food for breakfast, cooked on-site by humans. Eggs, potatoes, bacon. Yay. Plus other options, including yogurt and cereal. Easy to get to from Hwy 101, but not so close you can hear it. Price is reasonable. For really good coffee, head to Fifth St. Coffee Roasters.

I’ve stayed here twice and it’s very cozy and the bathroom is super spacious and nice. Everything about the room is nice besides the AC- it was broken and it worked very poorly. The pool and jaccuzi were so much fun for my kids aswell. But I was super disgusted when I also found bedbugs crawling around, I was very surprised when I saw them and I was able to take a photo of one. When I last stayed here I did get bites and so did my kids but we wouldn’t have guessed it was bedbugs. I’m beyond disappointed and grossed out by this and watch out for them if u plan on staying here!!

The chair that was out on the balcony was broken. The company tried to tape it together but the tape broke. The toilet in room 217 would run water most of the time. You just needed a new flap seal. I heard other people say the coffee was way too strong. I wish they would have had a list of restaurants nearby. The room was clean and nice
