Disliked: Cleanliness
This is winter, and it’s cold… AC is still in the window, leaving about an inch of cold air coming through, we covered it with a plastic bag… 1/3 of a roll of toilet paper was left, and we ran out… Beds were made but fairly certain bedding was not clean… crumbs and a dark spots on the bedding and pillow cases. Not sure how old the mattresses are, but very uncomfortable, you were either heading upstream or down stream depending on what angle you were facing… They advertised WiFi, um very very spotty WiFi, and we were told it in the office this building has great WiFi… 🙄 We were supposed to stay 1 more night, however neither my friend or myself would probably be able to walk if we slept here 1 more night… my back is already giving me issues with 1 night… I will not be back to the Gateway inn…

We had a lovely stay here!! We stayed for the weekend, the bed was incredibly comfy! They had direct TV setup for us and the heaters going when we got there so it was nice and cozy. They also offer coffee, a mini fridge, have a full bathroom and even a massage chair which we weren’t expecting. Checkin/checkout was a breeze! The mountain was just a few minutes way for a fun day of hiking as well. Highly recommend staying here if you want a nice relaxing stay☺️

The cabin was cozy and sufficient, but the housekeeping needs improvement. We stayed for about a week, and upon arrival, we had to ask for clean bed sheets, as there was a vast amount of hair and debris in the bed. That paired with cobwebs, bugs, and a mouse on the last night, but I did expect some of this as it is a rural cabin. The staff did take care of our needs on their time, which began about 8:30am (things like extra towels or toilet paper and replenishing wood, etc.). There are no dining facilites on site, but some decent restaurants down the road. Like any tourist destination, be prepared to spend a bit extra on food. The nearest mainline grocery and dining was about 45 minutes away. We used the fireplace to assist in cooking our own food, as there is only a microwave, mini fridge, and coffee maker in the cabin. All in all, I'd recommend and return, however, I do hope cleanliness improves.

Nice little cabin with plenty of room. This property is right outside the gate at Rainier National Park. Easy check in and friendly staff. If I had to recommend one thing, it would be new pillows. Pillow wear flat and worn out. Great property and location.

Needs blackout curtains. Very thin curtains let in lots of light at night. Internet is extremely slow (ethernet cord). No wifi in the room, only in the office. Only a mini fridge inside the cabin, but the picture showed a fullsize fridge. Otherwise the cabin is cozy, but gets cold quickly when the loud heater stops. I'd stay here again if I didn't need internet for work.

Very nice and cute little cabin. The heat did not get very warm so that was a bit of a down side. Otherwise everything was perfect for our one night stay.

So there are a lot of mixed reviews of this place. I can only state that our stay in one of the "premium cottages" was excellent. Clean, neat, two queen beds with good shower. It could use a little more counterspace in the bathroom but that's minor. Coffeemaker, fridge and mini microwave. Wifi/internet was good enough to stream a Big 10 football game and cast to the large TV. Friendly desk staff and it's right at the gate to the national park. Two decent restaurants within a three minute drive for breakfast and two dinners (Wildberry and Copper Creek Inn). In the morning/evenings, sat on our front porch with coffee/wine, enjoying the forest.
