Property was directly beside entrance to Mt Rainier NP, so very convenient. Staff was very nice. Room was awful, beds uncomfortable, bathroom had an odor, shower tiny.
WiFi spotty.
Door to outside
It is a very nice hotel. Just a little run down, but the staff was great. And it was only a few yards from the entrance to RMNP. Which was great. We went in early and was able to get parking easily.
We loved the cabins. They were clean and enough room for the 2 of us. The grounds were well maintained. Great location to the park entrance, a 2 minute walk to the welcome.sign. The only downside was they did not have any ice machines, extra toilet paper and we had to ask for a hair dryer.
This is a step up from camping outdoors. I wanted to put a show on for my kids but literally only one channel worked. I found multiple bugs in the room. The beds are very shaky. Location is great! Literally feet from the entrance of Mount Rainier. Parking was easy and we were fortunate to have quiet neighbors. The furniture and decor is super random in these rooms.

Liked: Cleanliness
Cabin was clean and roomy. The street light and noise were a bit too loud. Bees were comfortable, shower hot. As close to the park as you can get.
Floor uneven. Decor very dated. Toilet had urine and toilet paper in it. Shower, mirror, sink, floor all appeared unclean. We waited for cleaning person to complete the cleaning but obviously she did not. We did not stay ended leaving and driving to Olympia that night.
Amazing location and beautiful scenery didn’t meet the staff very modern but still looks nice wish there wasn’t carpet noticed some stains in the bathroom and roof but overall great stay
Great location and had amenities needed for a visit to a National Park. If you're use to luxury hotels you likely won't agree with this review, but it's everything one needs after spending time in nature.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
It is dated for sure. The bed was okay and the pillows were poor. Found some Frito crumbs in the rug. Conveniently right at the entrance to Rainier National Park. Good communication.

Great location
Place was only surface clean and beds were okay. We had a mouse problem on one night that kept us awake. We liked the layout of the cabin and it made it easy to get into the National Park

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
Accomodation ok for mountains, close to Mt. Rainier.The cleanliness was however quite poor, we found 1 dirty towel, left underwear and mess under the beds. The fridge was in very poor condition and leaking. Beds were fine.
