This facility was easy to book, easy to find, and had competent staff. The amenities were slightly above average with the exception of the breakfast, which, like most hotel breakfasts, is very much lacking for protein. The coffee was weak. The immediate surroundings were below average, but it felt safe... just sort of bleh. Exercise facility was OK but, again, like most, very small. My room was on the second floor and I experienced a quiet evening and night with almost no neighbor noise. The room was clean and well-supplied. The entertainment was good quality and easy to operate. The wifi was good enough for all my needs. A good place to stay, but nothing exceptional.

This trip included myself and my 3 young daughters. I know the area pretty well, however Spark by Hilton was new for me as I now live out of state. The outside doesn't seem like anything super fancy, but upon entering the hotel itself was very nice. The rooms were huge with plenty of table space, a mini fridge, and a nice sized bathroom. The pool was clean and well kept. My kids loved the breakfast options, for me it was a little light, but overall nice for the price of the hotel. Our most favorite thing about this hotel was the front desk attendant, Roland. This man was exceptional from the second we walked in the door. My kids were always bummed when he wasn't working, as he had the best conversations with them. It means so much to me as my husband was still back home, yet Roland went out of his way to entertain my kiddos and make them feel welcome at the hotel as well. We will most definitely make this our go to hotel when we go back to WA to visit our family. Overall we had zero complaints.

Cleanliness of property and room was the best I've seen in years. Some things were missing, like cups in the bathroom, coffee in the room, But I would take a clean room over those anytime.

Inexpensive vs. Cheap

Spark, which I had never heard about before, is Hilton’s idea of a budget chain. It was definitely priced well compared to others in the area. But there is a difference between low price and cheap. Spark is cheap. Every corner that could be cut to lower cost was. For example there are no glasses or cups of any kind for water in the room. I thought this was a mistake made by a maid. The front desk told me it was policy. Now that is being cheap. If you don’t make a habit of brushing you teeth or taking medication, the room is large and clean enough. But personally I found it uncomfortable for reasons I could not put a finger on. Slept really badly.
