Nice rooms, but prefer a better price point for the location.
Pros:

The rooms are very nice and plenty of easy accessible parking.

Cons:

The price was a little higher for the area and the office staff are not very friendly. Both my stays I had to go ask for bath towels as they didn’t have any in the room.

Pros:

There is not much outside of Mount Rainer. This location was the closest with a market and morning coffee and brewery.

Cons:

Our room was clean and the bed was comfortable.
The lobby had extras like maps, popcorn and drinks for purchase but it wasn’t very clean .
The staff was to the point and not very welcoming.
It would serve them well to be more inviting and the lobby clean. Based on check in I was concerned about our accommodations. As it turned out our room was clean and comfortable 😅
