Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were very spacious, and I managed to check in early to ensure I got non-smoking adjoining rooms. However, there were issues that could be fixed to enhance the stay.
The hotel is situated in a somewhat sketchy neighborhood with a fair distance to the airport. The rooms, although providing basic necessities, were disappointing due to the outdated furnishings and cleanliness concerns. The service was a mix of informative and lacking attention to detail. The dining options, while somewhat satisfactory, were limited for certain dietary needs. Overall, the value for money wasn't the best considering the location and room conditions.
I chose the Kent WA Howard Johnson hotel for its proximity to the Cornucopia Days Dragon Boat regatta on Lake Meridian, the appearance on the website, and the reasonable room rates. The rooms are at the 'you get what you pay for' stage but are in good condition. However, the service felt stuck up and rude, with issues like mold, dirt, and unkempt areas. The location is not the best, but it is decent for exploring the area. The dining was subpar, with limited options.
The hotel room I stayed in was a mixed experience. It was clean and sufficient, but unfortunately, there were some unwelcome guests like cockroaches and bed bugs. On the bright side, the service was accommodating and friendly. The location, while convenient to the freeway and Pacific Raceway, lacked proper maintenance. The dining options were subpar with limited continental choices that left much to be desired.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms weren't as clean as I would have liked and had a strange odor, lacking basic maintenance. However, they were still affordable. The service was somewhat accommodating but not overly friendly, with a focus on other tasks rather than checking us in promptly. The location was convenient for my travel plans, though I may choose differently next time. The dining experience was meager, offering limited options. Overall, a mixed experience with some room for improvement.
Despite being in a convenient location near the freeway and various amenities, my stay had its ups and downs. The room was clean but showed signs of wear and had a slight smoke odor. The service was a mix of unenthusiastic staff and rushed attention. The dining options were limited, prompting me to seek breakfast elsewhere. The facilities were decent but could use some improvement.
My stay at this hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. The rooms were clean but somewhat noisy, and the overall experience felt like you get what you pay for. On the bright side, the location was convenient for our plans.
The hotel offers a basic stay with essential amenities but lacks in certain areas like service and outdated rooms. The location is convenient for exploring the area but may not be ideal for families. The dining options are average, and the facilities are satisfactory for a short stay.
I arrived early at 2 pm on the day of the event and made sure to confirm with the staff my request for non-smoking rooms that are adjoining. The hotel is extremely clean, which is a big plus. However, the service was lacking, with issues like mold and dirt in some areas. The location, while clean and with new flooring, felt a bit seedy and not family-friendly. The dining options, although standard, lacked variety for specific dietary needs. Overall, a decent stay but with some drawbacks.
This hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms had a bad smell and were in poor condition with black stains and marks on the sheets. However, the staff was friendly and informative. The location, although sketchy and suffering from neglect, had some positives. The dining was better than expected with a standard breakfast offering.
