Good location near White Pass and Mt. Rainier (summer). Property is good, solid, clean. Located in Packwood, where some motel properties are a bit sketchy, this one is clean, solid and everything worked. I'd stay there again. The only issue is that it is located in Packwood which has less than a handful of dining options. But that's not their fault. Oh, in the morning, we saw a herd of elk from the back window just grazing away...cool!

We had a first class experience there....staff were friendly, personable and helpful; the facility was very clean and comfortable. We were hoping there might be a continental breakfast, or fresh fruit to nibble on, but that wasn't a deal breaker for us Thanks!
