For the price, by today's standards, I got what I paid for. The sink and tub were okay but the faucets in both a trial. The bed was Motel 6 level of comfort, but tolerable. I just needed a decent night's sleep and I got that without too much trauma, so it was worth spending less money for a nicer place.

Wifi did not work. Room was dirty and didn’t smell good. “Breakfast” was bad coffee and packaged baked goods. Really disappointed.

The hotel room was very dated, very few amenities. But you can see that from the photos. I was happy with how clean it was-didn’t smell bad, just stale air kind of smell. The ac unit didn’t work properly, and I was told by the office that it’s just how it was. The person who checked me in and checked me out were both very nice. The person I spoke with was not as pleasant, nor the person I had to ask for toilet paper. It says housekeeping is included, but they only came by on the morning after our first night, not to be seen again

Dark, dated, and its weird to have 2 of the exact same picture. But it was clean and had beds, so it met my requirements for a stay near family in Spanaway.

It was easy to check-in and out. Room was clean. Had no problem finding parking. Plus, the parking lot was lit so I felt like my car was safe.
Hoping this was only a one-time thing but at 2am a bunch of guests came and spent well over an hour blaring music in their room and out at their cars talking/laughing very loud and drinking beer.
