The price was right for an overnight stay. I needed to move the chair in the corner and it hadn't been cleaned in awhile. Dust bunnies and dirt. Bed was comfortable and hot shower. Only observed one outdoor trash can.

Check in was busy (hectic for the gal) , but efficiently done ..Bravo... Units were clean , but could have used a "plug in" air freshener to keep the room smelling good , just a suggestion, small investment to make (a case of "plug-ins", to impress the Guest even more upon entering their room ( a little musty, but... to be expected for an older property.. so all good) breakfast was Great 👍, coffee was good (not to strong, not to weak 👍), it's a plus being a pet friendly place 👍.. had a good selection of snacks and drinks in the concession area, and reasonably priced as well.. At check out, DJ my front desk guy was a awesome young man and was very helpful , informative,kind and friendly.. He really made my day w our conversation... 😊... "service w a smile"...thanks DJ.. 😉👍 So...all around good stay I will make this my Spot wen I'm in Ellensburg, Yakima or Cle Elum.. 👍👍😉

Breakfast offered stale bagels and muffins. The toilet ran constantly. The bathtub sloped to the middle. The chair and ottoman were stained. The bed was comfortable though.

Rooms smell like cigarette smoke. Don't spend extra money on a lake view, the vegetation is overgrown, you won't see it.

I was there for a cwu graduation. I originally booked 2 nights and had no trouble calling before 2 and cancelling the second night. The bed was hard but the room was clean. The amenities around Ellensburg were lovely.

Thumbs down!!

I never leave reviews but i am this time in hopes that nobody will have to experience what I did. I paid over 300 for 2 queen bed and the shower was broke so took a lot to turn on and there was a leak on the bathroom floor. I let the front attendant know and she said “I will make a note of it. “ They didn’t even try to accommodate. The breakfast was just waffles and bagels or English muffin but the bagel was very hard. Worst experience ever.
