This is an old motel that has been remodeled into a hipster spot! The only drawback is it's close to the train track - thankfully not a crossing so no train horns, but you do hear trains roll by in the night if you are sensitive to noise.

The room is excellent, comfortable, warm and in general all I need at a really decent price. Wifi, tv, fridge, microwave and bed all work as anticipated. Within easy walking distance of the theatre and the two restaurants associated with the hotel. This was my third stay here and I'll be back. Only small issues - No way to shut off the bathroom fan...not a really big deal...and I could have done without the bird poop on the stair hand rails. All in all, my favorite stay in Spolkane, even including relatives free houses.

The hotel room smelled like it hadn’t been cleaned properly in forever and there were stains in the carpets (which they tried to blame on my dogs). The bathroom had water leaking out of the wall and the door to the hotel room would not properly close and FLEW open in the middle of the night while we were sleeping. The area was surrounded by homeless people and you had to walk half a mile to a postage stamp sized piece of grass to let your dog pee. Then, after charging a pet fee per night, they still charged us over $100 extra for “stained towels” that you know they are going to bleach anyway. The “breakfast” that is included is at a mediocre restaurant DOWN THE STREET that we had to wait almost an hour to get our food from, and coffee is not even included in that. Awful.

The beds were clean and comfy, but the washroom seemed like it had been missed, there were hairs and a smear of blood on the wall. Parking was an additional $5. It also advertised that breakfast was included, but then at checkin we were told that they were only allowed to give us one voucher for one person (there were three of us), so that’s pretty misleading. Morning staff were super kind and helpful with questions.
