We found this motel on Hotwire.com and have gotten good deals and comfortable, clean Hotel rooms in the past through them. The disadvantage is that you have to pay when you book and there are no refunds.
That said, when we drove to the motel, we were surprised to see it was a motel and not a hotel. Hotwire said 2 star hotel. The gentleman at the front desk who checked us in was quit nice. He also gave us a room that was farthest from the busy street it was on. It’s a small place, so we could still hear the traffic.
This is a alleged 2 star hotel, so we weren’t expecting the Ritz.
The walls are paper thin and we could hear everything. The hot water tap for the sink only was not even lukewarm, it was just as cold as the cold tap. The wwii fi was so slow,we ended up going to Starbucks to use my laptop and tablet.. The place was gungy looking and you could feel the springs in the mattress. The entire bed bounced and jiggled when either one of us so much as moved a muscle. Over all, a poor excuse for a motel. I would give it no stars if the was an option!
To be fair, I need to say what was good about it. The price, $50 and the best part about it, leaving!!!! If we hadn’t pre-booked the room with Hotwire and could have gotten a refund we would have left and found something better, perhaps a real 2 star or 3 star place.
Verdict: Pay more, do not stay there! Avoid it at all costs!

Teddy, thanks for such an honest review. I always hate when someone is obviously being paid by the company supplying a product for review and won’t say anything bad about it. A real review, whether good or bad, is so much more appreciated. My older son is doing an internship in Seattle this summer and if we go out to visit I will be looking for a hotel and I will definitely avoid this one! Thanks.
Thanks so much for the honest review. if in the area, I know to avoid!Thanks:O)
Oh, that’s too bad. Glad to hear the restaurant went better.
Good to know. Thanks. It is great to get deals but you have to be smart about it.
Wow. I think I’d have rather camped out in a tent lol. Thanks for the review 🙂 Definitely watch out for that when booking hotels.
That sound like a horrible stay, my ocd would make me crazy there.
Haven’t used Hotwire; didn’t know no refunds
Thanks for the review – I’ve always wondered what Hotwire and Priceline truly meant with their ratings, and 2 star does not sound up to par!
