I didn't know the office closed at 11pm as we booked the room around 10pm on hotels.com and still had a few hours on the road until we got there. This wouldn't have been a problem if we were given the after hours number the lady at the front desk informed me of..... The next day after sleeping in our car. I was also unaware of the $100 deposit for the room. The same lady on day 2 at the office told me she would accept only $50 for the deposit for our troubles. I said ok... But when we got back later in the day to check in.... Again.... The $50 deposit offer was not honored and we were refused our room. And then we were refused a refund even though we had never checked in and still had a night left on our stay.
And this is just my issues with the administration. This isn't to mention the urban warfare conducted throughout the neighborhoods every evening. Gangs, gunfire, and all. This also doesn't include the prostitutes and crack heads swarming this building.
Silver lining, I'm kind of glad that our reservation didn't work out because I'm sure we would have either been shot, got AIDS or tetanus from being stabbed by a discarded needle, and std from touching anything in our room, or an unwanted high from 2nd hand crack smoke.

The worst experience I've ever had at a hotel the staff was obviously corrupt I had to pay three different $100 deposits it looked like a tweakers den someone tried breaking into my room while I was in there through the window twice and I had made two different reservations my brother was staying in one and they came into his room a day early kicked him out told him he stole the room even though I had a receipt saying that we paid for three days there was burnt holes in the beds the window didn't lock in staff was very unfriendly

Well my stay was faulty, from the first night... It started out being charged a deposit I wasnt told about, and then got registered into a room that seemed "well-enough." Then my wife pointed out some stained on linens. It doesnt end there--we stay the night and return our keycards to front desk for refund on remaining nights(29 days, for around $1700). Well, its been a month, and all I got back was the deposit. Also the location they gave bothered me too: Didnt remember it being in this part of Kent. I was searching for rooms in Federal Way anyways.

The room was obviously not cleaned after the last person there was hair all over the bed under the blankets there was female Purfume bottle under the bed a used toothpick in the shower no plate in the microwave and the bathroom light didn’t work but that might have been a benefit the shower is remarkably identical to a prison shower I used slippers in there to be safe this was my first stay here I can’t say about other rooms my room was forsure nasty and it was close to the office there no way they could miss these things

On 1/14/24 4 p.m., there was a broken pipe, but the hotel did not inform guests to take precautionary measures to protect guests’ property. Several hours later in the late evening, after I stepped on the water, my stuffs were in the water. On Monday, I must move to another room that was smaller with malfunctioned furnishings. My renting of a storage unit would start on Friday, which was 4 days away. Moving twice in a week made me exhausted.
I could not complete moving until 2:40 a.m. Tuesday., primarily because I put a large bath towel and a bath mat to help stop the water and to minimize the damage. I must wring them every two hours or more often when they are fully wet. I also took time trying to wipe dry my stuff so that I did not need to move wet stuff into the new room. My Foot Massager was on the floor, and it got water. Now, when I use it, it stops from time to time.
I found two roaches in my new room. This is bad because the roaches may get into my stuff. Another guest told me that her room also had a roach problem.
The new room has no shower curtain for the bathtub. The bathtub was only 11 inches deep. It may not be deep enough for people to enjoy a bath, other than a sanitary issue. There were no Tub Drain Stopper or a Sink Plug. I needed to use my food container when I washed my face. Without a shower curtain, I must wipe the bathroom floor dry after a shower.
The stove-top range did not work. The two plates could not be heated.

The room we got was very stuffy, we changed to another room which was very cold with no working AC, we had to look for another place for the night because we could not tolerate the cold.

The key to my room stopped working, no one was I. The office, no one answered the phone at the number provided, and I finally had to give up and rent a room at a different hotel at 1 am.
Stay away from this place! It’s horrible.

Felt unsafe. Property was dirty and stank of urine. Neighbours were very loud and woke us by talking and smoking directly outside our room.

The room we stayed wasn't as clean as we hoped. The floors weren't swept, it smelled a little, there were observed garbage around the facility that wasn't cleaned up. The rates were reasonable - I guess you get what you pay for.

No one at the desk on check except a sign saying be back in 10. Then to have the manager? Come out in an arrogant and condescending tone to tell me I’d have to wait - truth!

My stay was terrible. I checked under the bed and there was trash and receipts from whoever was there before me, the kitchen was filthy (oil splashes still on the wall), and the kitchen cabinets were rotting. There was no iron or hair dryer in the room so I went to the front desk and they said they don't offer those amenities which is ridiculous for a hotel. The laundry is also trash (many of them out of service), The ones that did work, didn't do a great job because my clothes were still wet. To top it all off, while I was doing laundry I read a posted sign that said there was free coffee in the main office. Upon arrival to the main office for my free coffee, they told me they do not offer coffee and that the sign was there since pre-covid. Overall terrible experience.

This property looked rough on the outside, but we checked in anyways and went to our room. The sheets hadn’t been changed as there was hair and skin flakes all over them. The floor was sticky, and the bathroom wall had gunk all over it. Paint was chipping everywhere and the room itself looked really gross. The staff was amazing though and immediately agreed to refund our full stay.

I will not be coming back to this property. Room was very dirty and it smelled. I left earlier than what I booked it was so bad.

the rooms were foul with blatant evidence of drug use by past occupants. everything reeked and there was a general uncleanliness on top of all of the trash lining the hallways and staircases. However, the front desk lady (i wish i had gotten her name) was phenomenal she deserves a raise and a half she looked overworked and underpaid for what she was having to deal with but she was extremely kind and courteous to us despite the lowkey horrific conditions

When i came to check in the manager did not have the three rooms i had reserved, cleaned so i was forced to go to find another hotel which was a big inconvenience.

First I would like to say the front desk dude was Really great but I would gives this place a zero percent. There was trash in front of door. No door number on door. The staff was decent but the office hours was inconvenient due to I went to a concert with my friend and got back around 1am. The microwave was not working and we didn’t know it wasn’t going to work. The office closes at 11pm therefore there was nothing we can do about it. The phone in the room had no cord.
The bathroom was super small. The room was not up kept. There was cigarette holes on the blankets and widow curtains. The cabinets smelled moldy or mildew. The room needed a wipe down. The house keeper person kept knocking on our door around 10:15 when you have until 11am to check out. The usb outlet on the wall near the lamps did not work. This place has false pictures because they are horrible. I wrote the manager of the hotel a three page statement regarding bathe issues with the room and the hotel in general. This hotel should only be worth 60 dollars.
The only think positive I can say about the hotel was the beds we’re comfortable, no bed bugs and the tv was great.
WARNING: DO NOT STAY HERE UNLESS IT IS THE LAST RESORT.

The reception agent was very friendly. Property was clean however the rooms leave much to be desired. Very dim lighting, outdated, dusty and uncomfortable. Probably will not return.

Took forever to check in. Spent 6 hours trying to call the front desk before check in but no one would answer. The room was super dirty and creepy. It definitely feels like a "by the hour" kind of place. We slept on top of the comforter and got out of there as soon as possible.

Arrived 9pm amd room not ready until 1030pm.
Floors sticky, no towels, no toilet paper, no blankets, broken sink and running toilet. Blankets not ready until 1130pm and never received.
People screaming until 2am. Elevator discusting. Entire property looked like it hadnt been cleaned in years. Red Roof corp will be hearing about this. I have stayed in over 1000 hotel rooms in 50 years and this was the worst in my life.

The worst ever. Filthy beyond words. When we got there, trash was everywhere, in the elevator garbage… my grand daughter asked me if we could sleep in the car as it was so dirty. We énervé had to go to the office to get some toilet paper as none was provided in the room. I’ve read so many other comments which are the same. Should have read them before booking. I can believe sanitary services don’t look into it. Gross experience!
