Best WLM Reviews
Charming and comfy! My wife Stephanie is writing this review.
We are seniors and travel on a budget and have seen many many hotels and motels. We will definitely be back to stay here.
The building is older but it is in excellent condition and the feel is like going to visit your grandparents elegant old home. The room was on the second floor. We climbed the spacious stairway to get there. The carpet is thick and in wonderful condition, my husband calls it "theater carpeting." Plantation shutters, a kitchenette with china, silverware and everything you could need including a wine opener is in the room. The bath was spotless and updated. This is a standard 2 queen room.
The only negatives, which were not a big deal at all, were that the towels were a little skimpy and we were only given a set of two. ( I like an extra towel for my hair in the morning).The sheets are older and the beds a bit soft, like going to visit your grandmother ????
All in all we loved it and are definitely going back. The charm, quaint elegance and coziness as well as the cleanliness were a big plus for us. We felt very ' at home' .
The staff was friendly. The area was a bit scary and I felt uncomfortable walking in by myself. My room was very clean. The bed, however, was not very comfortable. It was a bit lumpy. My room had a nice kitchenette with coffee provided. It served its purpose for the one night I was there.
The reviews worried me a little but the place worked well for us. They were very nice and the location is perfect. Yes, it’s outdated and a little dirty but it’s an old hotel and they seem to be doing thier best. The stove and refrigerator barely worked so don’t plan on cooking or trying to store perishable food for more than a day.
Sad to say, it's as bad as other reviews have outlined. Visible dirt, furniture so old/beat up/ broken that it should have been taken to the dump YEARS ago. The upside is that the kitchen and bathroom seemed reasonably clean and smelled like bleach, great location, and it was quiet. Given what I experienced, I have no reason to doubt the validity of the reviews I see talking about even worse experiences. 100% would not return.
We only stayed an hour. We could tell it would be outdated when we booked it but we expected safe and sanitary. There is a bad smell to the whole place. The bedside table and lamp in our room were broken, things were held together with tape. The bedsheets did not appear clean and for the first time ever we checked a mattress for bed bugs because the room felt so dirty. Our breaking point was the bathroom. Pubic hairs on the floor and it smelled like urine. When we went to talk to them no one was at the desk even though it was supposed to be manned until 10pm.
The rooms were dated and dirty. I had three rooms total. The carpet was gross in all three and the rooms smelled like mildew. The room we were in had a kitchen and it was gross at best (tin foil on burners, dirty toaster, nail polish on the furniture). It also had a Murphy bed which looked like it hadn’t had linens changed. There was a filthy couch taking up a large portion of the room, but I didn’t let anyone sit on it. The carpets had holes. The hotel only provides 2 towels for 4 people. The young man who checked us in was kind but the woman who was there later lacked customer service skills and was very put out by having to provide enough towels for people to shower. The young man is the only reason I gave it two stars. It’s close to everything, but so are the other hotels in Anacortes. I’d go elsewhere.
Booked 3 nights, stayed only 2 in Room 103. Management has a REAL problem with safety, cleanliness and customer service. Where to start……. * We paid for a kitchenette/ refrigerator since we brought our own food. Sadly, It was leaking profusely all over the already warped floor. A disaster! Never fixed - it looked like it was never defrosted! Spoiled food. * Window lock was broken / a stick in the window was used. Safety issue. Outside window screen was bent, twisted and had a large scratch and gauge in the frame. Use your own judgement here. * The sheets were PILLED and obviously many years old. Awful! Faded pillow covers and very hard / old pillows. * The bathtub was unsafe as it was so slippery. * The rug smelled awful and felt funny to walk on. We always wore socks! *Breakfast was a joke; one rotten apple in two days, one loaf of bread, warm milk - very limited. * The broken Lazy Boy chair had a large piece of duck tape on the head rest. How charming! * We couldn’t figure out turning the TV on. They explained you had to use one remote to turn it on and one to operate it!! * Feeling frustrated to a point where we became ill, we asked for a partial refund due to the utter frustration we had experienced - especially from our spoiled food and no refrigerator. A resounding NO. The Managers on site, Virginia and Bill blamed everything on the owners. Really!! Responsible? Pro-Active? Caring? The cost of 3 days definitely didn’t justify the conditions of this awful experience.
Positive: "" Negative: This room looked like it hadn?t been cleaned in a long time. Sheets and pillows had stains, carpet looked like it hadn?t been cleaned or vacuumed, cupboards had crumbs, Murphy bed had clumps of dust behind the headboard,
