Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Of all the 8 hotels we used on our trip this was the only one we had problems with. Ants invaded through the air con but we were given a different room with no problems. Then forsenic detectives turned up to check an incident in one of the rooms upstairs! No pool much to our 13 year olds disgust. Rooms were clean other than the ants.

We chose the Hollister Inn as an alternative to staying in the Monterrey area, as everything there seemed overpriced for what it offered. Hollister also gave us the chance to stay in a proper old style Motel, in a real town, rather than a lot of the tourist places we would be staying in on our road trip.

On arrival the man at the front desk was very friendly and welcoming, and got us checked in quickly. From the outside, the place looks very well kept and maintained, and the rooms were the same. Our room was very clean and well maintained and had everything in it we could want. There is also a laundry room with coin operated machines that came in very handy.

It did look like some of the workers from local farms stay there, and when we arrived some of them were sat outside chatting and having a beer after a hard days work. They kept to themselves though and were quiet, and it certainly didn't bother us having them there.

Hollister itself was a surprise. It's a nice little town in the middle of a farming area, and has everything you could need. All in all, we enjoyed staying there.

We ended up here quite by accident, when the hotel down the street we had stayed at previously was full and we were delighted that we did. The management was really friendly and helpful, the room was spotlessly clean, with a brand new flat screen TV. The bed was one of the most comfortable we have ever found in a motel or hotel. Having a bad back makes a comfortable bed critical to a good night's sleep and this one was great. The free breakfast was adequate and appreciated. We will definitely stay here again, finding it a much more pleasant experience than the Best Western up the street.

Never Never Never stay at this hotel. The worst service I have ever gotten. The room was not made up, and when I went to the office to tell him, he started yelling at me. I had told them NOT to clean my room and they were NOT going to clean it. When I told him that was not true, he started calling me extremely dirty words and threatend to call 911 on me....for a room not clean???? The other 2 nights, they NEVER changed the sheets and the rooms had a "smell" to them. Minimal toiletries and a little refrig that froze everything. If you value your time and money...Don't bother with the Hollister Inn, or Hollister, at all.

Worst place we have ever stayed at and we have been 1/2 way around the world.
We were at a concert that night and could not check in till after the show. The room was already reserved. I got a call about 8:00 pm asking what time we would be checking in, so if we weren't coming in they would sell our room. But actually they were calling so they could rent our room out for an hour or so. When we got to the room it looked like it never got finished up w/ the cleaning. There were a couple of hairs on the bed and pillows. The sheets didn't look like they were washed, there was a stain that looked fairly fresh. I took a picture of the chair it was so stained i couldn't even sit on it. Unfortunately it was late and the woman we woke up to get our key didn't look capable of much help. This place has people coming and going all night. ( drugs ) Whatever you do not come to this gross by the hour motel. Obviously the owners do not care about clean rooms or the grounds.
Lucky to get out without any type of things crawling on me.

On a recent trip to The Pinnacles National Monument we spent the night at the Hollister Inn and were very pleased with the transformation of the establishment. On previous trips we thought it was O.K. at best but this time we were surprised that it had been re-done, inside and out. New paint, new rugs, new flat screen TV, new microwave and refrigerator and updated bathroom area.
And, amazingly, the price was still incredibly low. Bravo!

We booked a room way in advance for the MC Rally at the reg. rate. Hollister Inn sold our reserved room at a higher (rate) and cancelled our reservation. Better check to make sure your reservation is good before going to Hollister Inn. They don't honor reservations if they think they can get a highter rate for a room.

I really have mixed feelings about this one. I came on a holiday weekend when they were gouging guests for $99/night. A lot of the finishes and furnishings are unacceptably worn or damaged.

On the other hand, there was not anything that was unacceptably dirty. Big difference between unclean and just worn. I really liked the location and peaceful atmosphere. There's a McD directly across the street and a good diner too. The huge parking space makes it feel more relaxed somehow. There's definitely a rural feel to what would otherwise be just another run-down roadside motel. There's no pool; the owners have planted vegetable gardens everywhere there's bare soil it seems. The whole place has an improvised, funky feel to it. They had both DSL and wireless and they both worked well. Micro. + fridge worked well too.

These folks seem kind and honest enough, I suppose. They just aren't serious about making this a viable motel. They need to replace things like the antique a/c unit and damaged furniture if they want to ever want to have a respectable establishment.

I find it hilarious they categorize this as an "inn". It's a run-down highway MOTEL. Period. I think I would be perfectly fine with it if I had paid $35 to $55 for the night. But $99 is just way too much. They get away with it because there aren't many hotels in Hollister. If you want something classier or more luxurious, you'll need to look at Gilroy, where you have a lot more options.

This place would be OK for a low-budget business traveler who isn't planning on entertaining clients or perhaps for a family on a low-budget vacation.

At first sight, the place was the typical motel. But the staff tried to make us feel comfortable and the rooms were really clean. The brekfast is correct. Maybe not as big as we expected, but it was worth!
