The room was comfortable and the breakfast was good. Pre-made breakfast burritos and sandwiches were a nice treat. The overall area of town is not fantastic though. I didn't feel entirely safe with my children in this part of town. I wouldn't stay here again simply because of the location (while conveniently close to the freeway, it was also inconveniently close to many homeless people).

Great little hotel. Seems to be recently renovated. Rooms are spaceous for this type of hotel. Very clean, friendly staff. Yakima is not too big so even if the hotel is on the outer rim of the city, you are close to everything.

Overall Stays Summary

For the comfort and value, just a place to sleep and shower it works great. We didn’t have time to use the outdoor heated pool. It is kinda windy and a little cold that weekend. The room cleanliness could be a little better. We saw spiders and cobweb along the window. Other than that it works fine for us as we had basketball tournament for the boys around that venues. The front people were nice and polite at check-in and check out.
