"Lo incomodo de hacer el check in fue que te tienen esperando para hacerlo y aun asi la habitación no estaba lista, el personal desatento cuando le pedí que me acomodaran el mueble para cama porq equivocaron la habitación que pedí, yo separe una habitación doble con dos camas twins y me dieron una habitación con una sola cama y un sofá. Y tuve que esperar todo el resto del dia para q me la acomodaran"

"The entrance is around the corner from the malecon which is a good thing in my opinion. I lived in Salinas for three years so I am pretty familiar with the place. The Malecon is the beachfront road and it can get loud especially on holiday weekends this is far enough up that its not the problem it is a few blocks down. Normally the weather this time of year is cool but with the El nino it was very warm and there were a lot of people in town which is unusual for this time of year. the torremar is one of the older buildings on the malecon and its starting to show its age that said the apartment is very spacious and the bed was comfortable and the shower was good and you can't get much closer to the beach . It's a good value for accommodations in Salinas and with 3 bedrooms and a very big kitchen it can handle more of a challenge than the two of us I will be back if the circumstances allow"
