An otherwise decent experience sullied by an extremely rude staff member at check in. The hotel had charged my card prior to arrival, which is normal and fine by me. But at check in, staff member “Ag” claimed that there was a state law that required my credit card to have printed numbers on it. I travel often, including in Washington state, and always using this credit card, and this is the first time I’m hearing of such a law. I’m happy for the property to point me to the law, but I suspect it just has antiquated processes. The staff member refused to view the credit card number available on my bank app, which would have matched what she saw in her records. Instead, she insisted that she would refund the card and would need a payment card with the number printed. Throughout this process, I was clarifying with her and asking about how my card would be refunded, and what alternative form of payment would be accepted. She was defensive and stated that we could “take our business elsewhere”. At one point she raised her voice and said loudly “don’t talk back to me” - ironic, given that she was cutting me off at various points and well, talking back to me. I don’t have high expectations of service. But I do expect to be treated with a basic level of respect as a paying customer. I also expect hotels to update their processes, and not give excuses like “it’s the law” when that’s not the case.

Staff Needs Serious Training in Hospitality

AVOID AT ALL COST OF TRAVELING WITH KIDS (and maybe also without?). We checked in at 8:30pm. The person working reception was too ‘busy’ to bother herself to show up, then was angry that we ringed the bell. Told us 3 times not to leave the kids unattended. Yelled at my kid for touching a key card return box that was empty. After getting to our room, I went back to the car to bring in the luggage. Apparently our baby was crying, so she came to our room to tell me wife that if the baby won’t be quiet stop crying, she’ll need us to leave the hotel. Mind you, that was past 9pm and the crying lasted for MAYBE 2 minutes. WILL NEVER SET FOOT IN THE PLACE AGAIN. As for the rooms, we got the suite. While it was renovated and beds were ok, there are no curtains. Street light floods the room throughout the night and your morning will most likely start at 6am when the sun is up. The ‘GO AWAY’ bear in our room perfectly captures the vibe of this place.

The AC smelled bad, and the shower faucet was installed incorrectly — the hot and cold were reversed. But the towels were clean.

Very nicely updated rooms and hallways, very happy with that. There was a distinct smell of a cat living there. Area behind front desk looked more like someone’s unkept bedroom (which matched the cat smell) rather than a professional hotel.

Super nice staff- room is updated and clean .LOVE that there is no carpet anywhere!!! Looks well care for and maintained.There are benches out side to use . The road is Rt 12 Main road to the pass - so road noise you won’t get away from it. Turn the fan on. New and Fresh is the vibe I got . This is March - So that to say off peak - but would stay again if they keep it maintained- as of today amazing!
