It was adequate. Room pics looked better than the real thing. Parking lot is hard to manuever. Did not post the pet fee, amd actually read a review that said they liked that that there was no additional charge for pets, so was disappointed to be charged for that upon arrival.

This is not a Hotel—it’s a Motel. As the homeless situation in Spokane is pretty bad—this Motel is not in a safe area. Felt VERY misled about this venue on the Expedia website

I'm not sure what to say about this one actually. The hospitality experience is changing almost by the week and cost cutting springs to mind constantly. Sometimes, front desks aren't even staffed on arrival which wasn't the case here. wife and I were surprised to see only the thinnest of bedding and no comforter. When we mentioned it, the hotel said that it was all part of transitioning to the need for cooler bedding in summer. However, they did produce a comforter and so that was ok. Elsewhere the room had a broken lamp with the shade and lamp broken from its stand and the lamp hanging by its cord. I reported this. Breakfast was weird as we misunderstood that a "free" cooked breakfast at an off-site restaurant was only for one of us. Spokane is a great city and the hotel was conveniently located in a nice area of town and had good parking. It probably caters more to a younger and hipper clientele. My wife and I fell into neither category. Very nice hot shower but hotels are changing in terms of what they offer and provide and not always for the better I fear.

The room was small, compact with everything you need. Mini fridge, microwave and Keurig. The bed was super comfy and breakfast was included at Rosie's, a block away. The staff at the hotel was so friendly and helpfull! The only downside was the train noise. I would stay again if I could pick a room opposite the train track area. Otherwise everything was great.

This is a great hotel. The steam plant restaurant that is a few blocks down has some amazing food and the restaurant itself is so historic and beautiful with the old steam plant factor implemented into it. Service was very nice. Interior was cozy and clean, exterior of the building looks okay, there was a couple pieces of trash in the parking lot

Great budget minded downtown location

Great location in the heart of downtown for the budget conscious traveler, close enough to walk to several great restaurant, clubs, comedy club, live music venues, and the riverfront park which is great. Parking was not free but off the street, easily accessible, and only $5. It is not your standard hotel. It appears to be an old downtown motel with exterior entrances, but don’t let that stop you. The building has been totally revitalized, and while the furniture has a few bumps and scratches, the room was spotless, the beds were comfortable, and the shower was wonderful. Free breakfast is served up as vouchers for a local diner around the corner, Rosie’s. Best idea ever. Apply your voucher to eat from their main menu. The food is delicious! Service at both the hotel and diner were ON POINT! We will be back!
