HORRIBLE!

Our room smelled like mold and the deadbolt was broken so we couldn’t lock the door. The hallways and parking areas were filthy. There was no grass to air our dogs even though they said they were “dog friendly”. We had to walk 2 blocks away to find a 6X 6 patch of grass at another business. There were people in the streets doing drugs and other illicit things. This was an unsafe and horrible area and hotel. We left and have not been able to get a refund from the manager even though they didn’t even have another room to move us to. DON’T BOOK THIS HOTEL!! It was the worst hotel situation we’ve ever been in.

Room was clean and check in was easy. The room did smell of smoke which was unfortunate. The breakfast is a voucher for 2 at a diner a block away.

This day was nice. The only recommendation I could make is that they vacuum the carpet on the outside every day and in the elevator, it would make it look so much better.

Do not stay here. It’s in the middle of all of the homeless people and drug users in Spokane. Also, it is not a hotel, it’s a “motel” where your front door is facing the street. Not dog friendly at all either, there is no grass whatsoever on property, you have to walk two blocks away to a patch of grass that is very small and full of cigarette butts and needles. DO NOT RECOMMEND.

We got into town very late and headed right to the hotel. The check in was super fast and easy. They had an elevator with easy access and the area was clean well lit. The room was clean and bed was comfortable. The breakfast was at Rosie’s a restaurant across the street and about a block up. You could choose what you wanted from a special menu or apply it towards a different item and pay the difference. The food was good and coffee was great. Will definitely return to both the hotel and the restaurant and will recommend them to others.
