Julia United States of America

location was great! walking distance to downtown it’s really nice.

Elvira United States of America

I liked the location the most, it was off the main busy street and even though a high school was across the street, it was quiet. Transportation was within walking distance and shopping and restaurants were plentiful. And most of all, I really appreciated the early check-in, I arrived early via Amtrak from Seattle, I called the Inn and asked and was told my room was ready. On arrival the lady said even if the room was not ready, I could have left my luggage until later.

Armando United States of America
