The person at desk was talking to another employee for several minutes and it took forever to get help. Overall the place was clean but it hasnt had well upkeep though. The outside reminds me of a place no longer in business. It was cheap and was good enough to lay my head for a night.

The service was great but as soon I got to the room most of the lights didn't work or just didn't have bulbs there was 4 pills on the floor. The toilet wouldn't flush and the sink wouldn't drain. The molding around the room was hanging off. Nothing like the photos when booking very disappointing.

This place was pretty good. I slept well and continued on the road the following day. Room was clean and reasonably priced. Gas and food across the street. Downtown Kent just a short drive away.

Honestly the only nice thing about this place is the chandelier in the entrence of the hotel. Its so dirty our beds where covered in dirt and little rocks all over the beds the pool is sooo grimmy looking n the water is freezing. When we had breakfast we was told we cant take food or drinks back to our room... even though we have a fridge and micerwave. There was no lock on the inside just the keycard lock. The toilet would hardly even flush either. I also think i got lice because my hair and body have been itching non stop since night one at the hotel. We will never return thats for sure. The. We checked out early and cleaned the room. We got called at 11 being told to check out... we already did that. Then they said they would look at the room n see if we would get the deposit back. I still havnt gotten it back n we left that room clean didnt break nothing and still no refund. Worst place eeeeever
