When checking in I was told their POS computer system was down and I was forced to pay in advance with CASH which I didn't have on me. I had to find an ATM, withdraw with cash -including a $25 deposit- AND pay a $3.50 ATM fee.
Back at the front desk I was told that the senior/disability room I had RESERVED @ Hotels.com was not available.
The room was clean, the towels and bedding were clean, wi-fi was available, but no free breakfast and there is no on-site restaurant. Upon check-out I asked for my deposit to be returned and I was forced to wait while they sent an employee to the room to check it for damage before they would release the $25 deposit to me.
Most inconvenient!

Night one, our bed frame fell, we called the front desk and they stated “ I’m working alone and there is really nothing I can do. If you can wait until midnight I may be able to help”……the next morning we asked for fresh towels for showers, and was told they are low and don’t have any.

Our room was as far away from the main lobby as possible. No other guests/vehicles in our area. Dark parking lot. Not a safe feeling. Intended to enjoy time in the lounge, but it was so far away, we would have to drive there and back from the room. The hotel was by no means full in occupancy (hardly occupied), so we don't understand the reasoning for this room location.
Hallway was extremely cold and room was extremely hot when walking in initially. Room temp was controllable, but only after reducing the temperature, leaving the room and coming back later, again through a cold hallway.
Took quite some time to get warm/tepid water at night. Better in the am.
The king size bed was like an oversized hammock. Swayed into the middle and so soft it was uncomfortable.
Ability to charge cell was nearly impossible. The wall plug was in the center of the king sized bed and the lamp had no plug in options. Had to swap out lamps to charge cell phones on the nightstand.
The corners of the bathroom floor very much need attention. Quite a great deal of dirt build up.
Had this been our first stay in this hotel, the review would be one star. We know this hotel has much higher quality accommodations as we have both stayed there for personal and professional reasons. Based on this and the availability of rooms, we are not impressed with our stay. Definitely would not recommend this hotel based on our most frequent stay.

Not worth it, run down and outdated

The whole building is old and run down, the rooms smell and the furniture is stained and dirty. There were no amenities not even soap to wash your hands in the room. I turned on the heat and it made me sick between the smell and the noise. The food options were terrible and also contributed to making me sick- not worth the $10 breakfast fee! Noone was at reception for checkout and I waited for over 15min. Definitely would not waste any time or money there again.

The service from the Airport was great and so convenient for the conference. The shuttle driver was very prompt and friendly when she picked me up (and dropped me back off at the airport) and had no problems accommodating my large trade show baggage. Front desk staff was very friendly as well - I lost an earring and they didn't hesitate to help me look for it in the lobby and let other staff know (found it!). Met Maria, the manager - kudos to her for not only being friendly herself, but training a great staff. I will stay again when I come back to Yakima!

This is a very affordable place with parking and quiet. One thing that would help, is if they would update their website. The restaurant info has a tiny disclaimer that it's closed, and that breakfast is only on weekends. But it's daily. They just started charging for it, which isn't disclosed anywhere that I found. I would still stay there, because of the location & the many nearby dining options.

This hotel was great for the price. It was clean and very comfortable. The pool looked inviting. The outside was a little run down but they are making upgrades. We were a little disappointed the lounge was not open- ( we tried out a great place called Purrs instead) but other than that it was a great place to stay. We went to the capital theater for a show- and next time would stay at the Red Lion again.

There isn’t much to like about this place except the location downtown within walking distance of decent shops and restaurants, and the staff.
Our first room was infested with ants and was super damaged (walls with holes and torn wallpaper, furniture falling apart and damaged). Towels had stains on them and were small and abrasive.
We got moved to a different room that seemed to be in slightly better condition, but still old and dated decor. Bed was too hard for my husband who had difficulty sleeping. The toilet would randomly run to refill the tank. We later discovered that this was due to the toilet leaking from the pipes underneath the room where there is additional parking, creating a concern for potential biohazard.
If you don’t need to stay on the main drag and can afford to stay elsewhere, I strongly recommend you do so.

Reserved a room with King Size bed since I am in a wheelchair it is easier for me to have a king size bed to get in and out. Got there and the man at the front counter told us that all of the king size room are only accessible by stairs. Then asked for a handicap room and was told they didn't have any. But they could put us in a room with 2 queen beds with an additional charge. I refused to be charged because they don't have the room I reserved since I am in a wheelchair. Finally got a room after 20 minutes. I couldn't get my wheelchair past the bathroom since the cabinet for frig and TV was in the way. NOT a great experience.

Located in downtown Yakima, next to the event center, is this hotel. It's dated, in a retro late 80's/early 90's kinda way. The room was clean (dated) and comfortable. The grounds on the property are maintained, and clean. The building(s) themselves could use some minor repairs and upkeep.
It felt like we were the only ones there for the night, which felt odd , but made for a quiet stay. The staff that I encountered were friendly, and outgoing.
All in all, I feel like it's an older property that's a bit neglected by the ownership, but lovingly maintained and kept on course by the staff. Id recommend the place as a value stay if you were needing a place in Yakima.
