Had a great stay at Golden North Inn. It’s not fancy but clean, safe, walking distance to Fred Meyer, provides free airport shuttle, and has decent continental breakfast. The staff are very helpful and welcoming. The bed was comfortable.

Great property close to the airport. Small but family owned so they really do care about the guests. The facilities were in great condition, bed was comfy, the complimentary breakfast was actually amazing with lots of options and healthy snacks. The area is quiet and close to the airport. I definitely would stay here again.

The smell was of a very old, water damaged property. I didn’t stay. No way was I dealing with that all night. It was small, but clean - but the smell was a deal breaker. And almost the same price as chain brand names.
