It rained when I was staying there and my room started leaking, the front desk clerk brought me towels and said she’d put in a request for “them” to look at it tomorrow. When I was checking in, she didn’t say but maybe 5 words to me the entire time, and seemed like I was bothering her

It was close to downtown and made it worth the stay. Room was ok, but will say it was fairly clean. Breakfast could have been better in my opinion for "grab and go" options. They offered strawberry nutrigrain bars and small prepackaged muffins. Adding cereal or something would be an excellent addition. Firepit in the parking lot is a nice touch. Overall, it was good!

This is the 3rd time staying there I only have 2 negative things. #1 Pool was right outside our room. So kids were kinda noisy. #2 Security wise there was not the security latch on the door. Otherwise it was perfect for what we needed.

Skip and go to Park Vista

Gross and not on the river. It’s on a creek. The beds were not clean, the floors turned my white socks brown, the light switches were broke, and overall gross. At least they didn’t have bedbugs! For the price, I thought it was a rod run deal or something…it was not that cheap for rod run it’s because it is gross. The employees were super nice and the fire pit is cool! Parking is very convenient.

This was a really nice hotel to stay at. We got to see bears at nighttime walking around and with us being up there during rod run our area was peaceful. If catching the trolley its à quick 5 minute walk to the aquarium and I definitely recommend it

I have stayed here several times for the convenience and cleanliness. Close to aquarium and shopping. Large rooms. Be aware it is a motel and not a fancy hotel. If what you need is a no frills economical place this js your place.
