This distinctive, budget bed-and-breakfast is in a class of its own, situated on a ranch that formerly housed wild animals used in the film industry. The eight-room property is in the process of transitioning to a wild-animal habitat, and guests are allowed to view and interact with the animals. A major attraction is the continental breakfast delivered to bungalows daily by staff and an elephant. Guests should be aware that the bungalows are basically tents with wood floors, but they're clean and have TVs, DVD players, showers, mini-fridges, and coffeemakers. Decor is animal themed and kitschy. Guests seeking a basic stay in Salinas could try the Super 8 Salinas, where there's a pretty outdoor pool and comfy, modern rooms.

Guests of the Super 8 Salinas say that this budget hotel is surprisingly clean, modern, and well-maintained. The 70-room property sits right against Highway US 101, making it very convenient for travelers, but less convenient for light sleepers who can hear the traffic from their rooms. Guest rooms are functional and modern with comfortable beds, flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, and microwaves. A standard continental breakfast comes free with a stay, and the hotel has an outdoor pool, which is nice except that it faces a busy road and a Motel 6. For another budget hotel two and a half miles up the road, and just slightly farther from the highway, try the Laurel Inn and Conference Center.
