Larkspur Landing Extended Stay Suites Renton

Breakfast was convenient

Quiet area. Staff was friendly. Clean. Bed was comfortable.

Room was clean. The check in gal was very friendly and courteous. Room was close to outside to take dog out.

I would recommend against staying in this hotel for a couple reasons.

First the pros:
The suite is very large, with a full living room, computer desk and kitchen, including fridge, stove, microwave, dishwasher. The separate bedroom has a king size bed. The bathroom has two sinks, which is certainly convenient. The shuttle bus pilot was most friendly, and shared her entire biography with us.

The cons:
The room is wet, stuffy, and stinks of mould. The in-room amenities, e.g., shower gel, shampoo, Kleenex box, are all empty. The Internet is sketchy, and frequently drops. The advertised continental breakfast is not available. Staff told us u alternately the food delivery hadn’t arrived, or new management has cancelled the program. Take your pick. The property advertised as being close to services, but in fact is isolated, and so one must travel for shopping, dining, etc. While advertised as an airport hotel, it is in fact far from anything.

Unfortunately, I booked and paid in full through Expedia, and I’m unable to obtain a refund. I also have air flights that will be complicated to change on short notice.

The 2nd time i have stayed here, just as good a few years ago
good size room and clean and tidy
good breakfast in the morning
would stay again

This hotel is in big trouble. Staff told us manager had left unexpectedly. Felt sorry for the staff as things were so bad. No breakfast available. Out of coffee cups. Elevators not recently inspected. Door electronic keys didn't work. We had reservations for 3 nights and left after 2, forfeiting our cost to get to a better place. Do not waste your money.

There was a bed with clean sheets

I booked with breakfast and shuttle but they say we don’t have a stuff there was no breakfast and then I called them to come and pick us up. It says after 10 there will be no shuttle but they said it doesn’t say you knew when I booked this site shuttle service and I asked the girl what is your name? She was rude and she refused to give her name. I called Booking.com and they gave my reservation number and they say that is wrong which I have in my Booking.com that’s a reservation number confirmation number I had the worst experience with this Hotel and with Booking.com.

Everything is gud

The room was generous in size for the price.

The room is big with a separate bedroom big bathroom

La taille de la chambre

I've been using this establishment since 2012 and have probably stayed at this particular location 100's of times now. It has always been a convenient tucked away safe location. With large bedroom style layouts, very clean, knowledgeable friendly staff and great pricing for the service. It's not a marriot but it's not a motel. Well none of this is the case anymore. The guy at the front desk should probably learn some hospitality etiquette as you interrogating your guests for why they’re staying here after providing my ID and seeing where I live is quite condescending. I just got back from staying at lovely hotels for WC and literally it was, how can we help you, checking in? Would you like any recommendations while you’re staying with us? Talk about the amenities on site, and thank me for choosing to stay with their establishment. Not why you here today? Well let’s see your a hotel and I paid that’s why I’m here. They are now being stingy with parking and charging $15 a night-this isn't seattle, this isn't DT, this isn't Bellevue (had I known of the change I'd much rather stay at the eastgate location) it's a massive flat parking lot. Then upon checkin it took the front desk attendant 15mins and mind you I'm the only person in line. She couldn't figure out how to place the deposit on my card. Then I finally get up to the room with my food I picked up to go that's now getting cold and ruined. I get smacked in the face with cigarette smoke! I put my stuff down and call back down, is this a smoking room???? She says no come back down, with my stuff or without??? Just you. I come back down and she gives me another room but now I gotta go back up and get my stuff to move it all down into this new room. Literally took me 30mins from the time I walked through their door to get to my room. That's ridiculous when I'm the only person in the lobby the entire time. Theirs 3x as many workers as there is me to check 1 person in. Then I get to my new room. I finally sit down my food is ruined and I don't even want to stay here anymore. Pretty sad when the Hilton across the parking lot has free parking and same pricing. So note to self I'll never stay here again. On top of all of this I go to use the bathroom and it doesn't even looked like it was cleaned! Straight up bare minimum below par experience. I will never stay here at this location ever again. Mind you it did get bad in here during Covid but then it got better again. Well idk if it's new ownership or what cause they also asked for my number and email like what you need that info for I already paid with hotels.com! If you're considering I would go across the parking lot to the Hilton. They also used to have fresh baked cookies upon check in and those are gone too.

I stayed here for a few nights in July. There is much about this place that is very positive. The staff is great. The beds are comfortable. Everything was comfortable. The kitchens in the suites are really nice. The AC works well. The location is pretty good. The shuttle service to the airport is great (my driver was super cool). The furniture is a bit dated but really, really well made. The televisions are nice, big LG digital ones and they work really well. You get a lot of nice, fluffy towels. They are only a short distance from a Walmart so you can stock up for your stay. The area felt safe even at night. The rooms are really spacious too with plenty of closet space.

Now some things they should work on;
The kitchen in my suite was nice, but for some reason there was almost no flatware. There were absolutely no cooking utensils. I also wish their kitchens had toasters. There was also a shortage of wooden hangers. The WIFI worked great on the first day/night and then it had trouble for the remainder of my stay. The carpeting in the second floor hallway needs to be stretched. It is not loose enough to be a tripping hazard, but it does look bad. The shower items are unmarked so I wasn't really sure what products they used.

The breakfast was sad. It consisted of yogurt, bagels, cold cereal and milk. Some bananas on one day. Some little muffins on another day. One day, they ran out of cream cheese for the bagels because someone stole a container of cream cheese. The next morning they only had flavored cream cheese. If you want a good, hot breakfast, go out to eat.

Despite these things, I would recommend Larkspur Landing to anyone staying in Renton. It needs a little bit of love, but the great staff makes up for that.
