We were only there for 1 night. The room was clean & big enough for 5 people. The benches at the balcony were dusty though so I had to clean it myself. I like where it’s located which is to the end of the building & on 2nd floor. Great location & short drive to Mt. Rainier.

Nice clean room, beds were great, overstuffed pillow was not - negative is there wasn’t a fridge, nor a microwave and no TV. This is the first time we’ve stayed a motel/hotel that didn’t have those.
