    Not much. Room could be a bit brighter, but not a big deal.

    Very clean and neat. No funny smells either. Well maintained. Comfortable bed. Very spacious suite.

    We were at the very last room on the first floor by the door and 4-5 people, mostly men, were up outside the door talking loudly for much of the night. Would have hoped the area would have been better patrolled. I needed something from my car and wouldn’t walk past them to get it.

    We had a small suite with frig, stove, pots and pans, etc. very nicely kept.

    Nice quiet, comfortable accommodations for longer stay or business traveler. Quiet.

    • Deluxe King Suite - Non-Smoking
    • Stayed 2 nights

    The Booking.com website is misleading on the king suites. There ARE NO BALCONIES or ATTACHED OUTDOOR SPACES to the suite itself. Double-queens are the only ones that have that. When the descriptions say "outdoor dining space" it means that if you walk down to the Sleep Inn, there are picnic tables in a courtyard. It was also a really long way to get breakfast, especially if you were carrying it back to your room, rather than eating in the dining area. You had to walk from Mainstay to the attached, Sleep Inn & Suites, to get breakfast and to also to get to the pool. Not a long walk if you are young and of sound body, but arthritic, not so fun. All of the amenities were in the Sleep Inn or on the Sleep Inn side of the walkway between the two hotels. It's really one massive hotel, attached by a long hallway. If I had realized that, I may have just stayed at the Sleep Inn, especially since the room I booked didn't have a balcony or patio, which was the main reason that I booked it. The check-in was at the Sleep Inn & everything was on that end. The stay was very quiet but the hotel is pretty inconvenient to get to. Google maps makes it look like it's not a big deal, but it's on the edges of town and not conveniently located at all, or close to anything. It's in an industrial area. The road to get to it is poorly maintained for a long section and goes through a dumpy, run down neighborhood. Then you come around the corner and the road is new and the buildings on the one side of the road are industrial. There is a smoother way to get to it but much longer and more difficult to figure out.

    Breakfast options were good. A lot of hot and cold choices, including protein, carbs, yogurt, fruit, cereal, etc. The kitchenette was well-stocked with utensils and dishes for simple meals for 2-4 people. Don't forget to turn on your ice maker in the freezer when you get there. Although, if someone is sleeping on the sofa bed, the ice dropping is very loud, but can be turned off overnight. It's a standard residential refrigerator with an ice maker in the freezer compartment. The bed in the King suite is actually a King and the linens are top notch and smelled very clean. Super white, and crisp. Lots of fluffy pillows. The bed was very comfy (I have severe arthritis in my back and I was comfortable). It's far enough away from the highway that I didn't hear any highway noise at night. The entire room was squeaky clean. No dust in the corners or on top of things like the lights. No mold in the grout or cracks in the tiles. Everything seemed new and well-cared for. The suite felt much more luxurious than the price would indicate. The room safe was large enough for my laptop and all of my files. Now that I know what I know, I would stay again. The hotel feels more 3 star, than the 2 most of these booking sites has it listed as. Very clean and comfortable, with nice towels and sheets and a really good mattress on the bed. Room has a hair dryer and plenty of towels already stocked, which is nice. Overall, a really nice room and a good night's sleep.

    The staff was not very friendly. The pool was so over chlorinated that the kids were getting rashes all over their skin and your eyes burned just walking into the pool area. Asked staff for more pool towels and they didn’t have any clean and the front desk guy said they(people in pool) would have to drip dry. Not very safe for their tiled areas to be all wet and have someone slip. It was disappointing to not be able to use the pool area because the unventilated and high chlorine levels.

    The rooms were very clean and the beds comfortable. Room size was very nice.

    The ice in the back entrance, made walking in with a bunch of luggage hard, while sliding to the door.

    The beds were comfortable. Loved all the extra pillows. My children enjoyed the pool. Free bottled water was unexpected, but I am thankful you all do that. Rooms were very clean. Staff was super friendly with great recommendations on what to see while in town.

    This place is great, I never thought it was so clean and cozy. The reception and cleaning employees are very friendly and efficient and the facilities are great. This place exceeded my expectations and I hope it never changes. Its cleanliness and strict rules make it a place you want to be, safe for the whole family. . I will definitely return soon! The girl who greeted me at the reception was very kind and very helpful. Her name is Nukari and I want to highlight how great she was!

    It was priced a little high. Our mistake was we didn’t realize when we were traveling through the area that UW had a home football game that day. Our lack of planning cost us since we were lucky to find an available room for the night.
