Really friendly staff and spacious room. Close to the airport and grocery stores. Most tours offer pick up here. I do recommend renting a car. If you stay in the first floor, the second floor may be loud.

The place was clean and quiet and the bed was comfortable. Staff was pleasant. If all you need is rest, this is the place. The room was small, not much to enjoy if you stay in. No real view of the windows. Worst of all, i kept wanting to get my tools and fix the sprung door and hinges on my room. I'm not sure a 100lb person could have even closed my door. I'd stay again, but hope the improvements continue.

Had a great stay at Golden North Inn. It’s not fancy but clean, safe, walking distance to Fred Meyer, provides free airport shuttle, and has decent continental breakfast. The staff are very helpful and welcoming. The bed was comfortable.

We only stopped in for a short time. The bed was comfortable, the showers were hot, and the front desk people were so kind! The only negative we had was the planes fly low nearby so it was a little nerve racking along with what we assumed was some construction at the hotel that made it noisy. Would stay again!

Great property close to the airport. Small but family owned so they really do care about the guests. The facilities were in great condition, bed was comfy, the complimentary breakfast was actually amazing with lots of options and healthy snacks. The area is quiet and close to the airport. I definitely would stay here again.
