I stayed here years ago when my son and I took the mountaineering course up on Rainier. If you’re looking for luxury, look elsewhere. If you’re looking for a fun experience that’ll remind you of that summer camp you went to as a child, this is the place. And come on, Whittaker, Everest, history and of course this is the launch pad for so many Mt Rainier climbs. I hope to be back.

Great value for a family of 5. But the cafe really lacked in prepared breakfast options everything was microwaved! Would have like home cooked breakfast options. Grounds were very nice and the room spacious.

We were told, on arrival, that there was no water. This was not the fault of the motel. It was a problem with the local service. However, the motel only provided one small bottle of water per customer, and advised us to not use the tap water at all except for showers (and even then, there was risk involved). They warned us of this through expedia an hour before our check-in time, but we were on the road and unable to access email. But the motel refused to supply us with any more water. Why did they not go to the supermarket themselves to provide their guests with more bottled water? This was very poor service given the considerable fee paid for one night in what was a quite shabby room. The problem with the water meant that none of the other services (bar, restaurant etc) were open. But there was no concession at all from the motel.

This place was way over charged. And the room was dirty and sheets weren’t changed. Heater was not working and I was too cold at night that i couldn’t sleep. There was no tv and WiFi was so slow. At Night we hear so many random noises and knocks around that we get terrified because I was there with just my girls. I would not recommend this place.
