we travel in our pickup poor parking at the motel very tight and very small only about 20 spots, mostly for compacts over flow lot two blocks away and both are locked up at 10 pm. we had to park on the street walk to the hotel we are 78 years old in poor health; and had to crawl through the gate to get to our room we had rented earlier in the day. No one answered our phone calls for help. I was very disappoint that Expedia would even have a hotel on their listings like this

Downtown Spokane

Great central location in downtown Spokane. Friendly staff. Our room was recently updated. Pretty basic and nothing outstanding but a great value if you are looking for a place to rest your head. I would stay here again.

Not the best room

We’ve stayed here a few times and this room was VASTLY different than in our previous stays. Not as clean and no art on the walls in this room, much more aged than previous. Still a great bang for our buck. We also had to park in overflow for the first time but we were confident in how secure it felt there too, so we’ll worry less about that in the future.

Dog friendly but have to walk more than a block for a tiny green space for the dog. Had to pay for parking even though parking next to the hotel was not guaranteed. Parking across the street was inconvenient since we had a lot of stuff due to being on a long road trip. Very nice and clean room. Friendly staff. Surprisingly quiet for a downtown location.

Room was generally clean. Parking gate was still open when I went to bed around midnight and it was open when I left around 6:00. I was told it would be closed for the night at 11:00, not sure that it was secured at all overnight. Strong odor of marijuana coming through the AC vent just before I turned in for the night. No body wash or conditioner in the shower dispenser. Not a horrible stay, but I feel it could have easily been better with attention to details.
