In Serious Need of Upgrade
The hotel is in serious need of a remodel/upgrade. The staff were all great, but the conditions of the hotel were quite poor. When I got off the elevator on the floor my room was on, the ceiling height was maybe 7 feet tall, which made it feel claustrophobic in the hallways. When I got into the room, it was clear that nothing but perhaps the Keurig, TV, bedsheets and towels had been updated any time recently. The carpet, bed skirt, and all other furniture/decor were VERY old (late 70's early 80's is my guess). When I plugged my laptop and cell phone charing cords into the the outlets, most were VERY loose fitting and would barely stay in the wall. There was also no updated AC/Heat (such as a multi-split) in the room. The thermostat looked to be from the late 60's/early 70's. I turned it to cool, but the room stayed very warm all night (high 70's/low 80's). I felt the air coming out of the one vent near the ceiling and it continued to blow warm air all night. The room needed circulation though, so I kept it on. The area is also sketchy. I worried about my car getting broken into, but luckily it was fine out there. My only five star rating goes to the employees I interacted with. They did an amazing job with what they had to work with.

Going home
Visited family and friends in Olympia. The governor house is always my first choice because it’s right downtown and has a few of the lake. Yes, it needs a bit of spiffing up, but the reception desk is very responsive and helpful

Ok , honest review time . Front desk was very friendly and accommodating ! Room was disappointing . The bathroom toilet seat was broken , there was no garbage can in the bathroom . I ran a bath and stepped in and the water burnt the **** out of my foot . No safety on the water temp … night stands were gross , old and beat up . There was gum mashed into the carpet ( looked old ) , and the extra “ suite “ was two desks and an old chair . Waste of Space and very cheap/ odd . Now that I’ve said that , you get what you pay for and for the price I think it was “ok” . It’s sad to see that area struggling with so many homeless people . Front door was locked upon arrival and had to push a button to even check in.
