Choas Managed.

I think the hotel either just went smoke free or someone didnt listen to what was told, the room smelled heavily of cigarettes. The door to the bathroom got jammed day one and the two wonderful ladies at the front desk came up and tried to fix it then it was decided they needed to uninstall the knob. They said they would send maintenance up in the morning to fix it. We had decided not to wait around and just go get our day started. The gentleman at the front desk said that he was giving us a little bit to wake up. I believe maintenance wanted us there and we just didnt want to wait around. I reminded them on the way out. The key card deactivated VERY easily. If you carried it close to your phone, like in your pocket, it would deactivate. Even with all the surprises we still had fun. All we really wanted as a place to laid our heads and that was what we got. The customer Service was top level. The beds were comfy and the pool was VERY clean and cold.

Was missing some standard basics for any hotel/motel room - no mini fridge, no microwave, no hair dryer, no shampoo. Could see daylight all around the door, so could hear every sound outside clearly. Centipede in the shower.

Our room was pretty clean but it smells like guests have been smoking in it. We were assigned on the second floor and there's no elevator. The lady who helped us was pretty friendly though. She offered us coffee that's available in the morning. So I guess all the shortness of the quality of the hotel pretty much covers with the staff's niceness.

Fife is an alright area. I’ve lived in Tacoma, If I hadn’t I might not feel safe here. Few unhoused people in the parking lot in their cars. A couple weird stains in the floor, not sure if they could’ve been cleaned or not. Good value for the price, staff was amazing, but the room was probably what you expect for a motel.

I made a booking with Expedia about 1:32 yesterday then when I got to the hotel the booking was never there so I had to pay for the room again after I already paid for it but you guys which really piss me off then when I got back to the room I noticed at the booking number came up so I went back over there and they cancel out the hundred bucks that I just paid so I have to wait 7 days for that and they took your booking so I'm not happy with the people at all I'm going to try somebody else that's two times you did that to me already two times
