This is a pretty clean hotel in a nice area. The staff were friendly. The rooms are not as soundproofed as I expected and the whirlpool was cold. Maybe we just caught the hotel on an off day with the pool. Overall though a decent hotel.

Room was very clean. Property is in excellent condition and very convenient to the Kent Stage and downtown restaurants, which are all walkable. Only issue was room key cards didn't work-had to go back down to desk twice to get them fixed. Otherwise, everything was great.

My stay at this property was not good ! We waited to check in because they had issues with computer They don’t have water ! We have to buy it for 5$ a bottle !! Then they had some festival going on so the music and the loud noises was so load I called front desk at 11:45 pm he said he it’s a festival and he will call police at midnight ! The drums and music was going on until 3am in the morning !! I had to wake up at 6 am to drive 7 hours ! Why did I pay for a stupid hotel that I cannot sleep in ??? It’s really frustrating ! The location is good near restaurants and stuff but other than there’s nothing
