SilverStone Inn North Spokane

10/10 Excellent

"Cheap, clean and friendly"

Fairfield Inn & Suites Spokane Downtown

8/10 Good

"This hotel is a little run down and I thought I would regret staying here, but the location is amazing. We were able to walk to the river park and the mall across the street from the river park. This really mattered to me because the streets around the mall are super confusing. The breakfast was fantastic. Plus they had fresh bananas and apples available all day as well as coffee, tea and hot chocolate. Only complaint is that they had no cold water. Not at breakfast even. The rooms were outdated, but clean. We moved the couch to reach something and no dust bunnies! And the rooms were so quiet. My (adult) children were next door and we never heard a peep."

Best Western Plus City Center

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was all beyond amazing. Friendly, knowledgeable, and respectful. The jetted tub was on the smaller size and parking is a bit crazy; especially when they have a bus full of athletes arriving in the middle of the night and have half the spaces blocked off; there is indoor parking (for an additional fee) which we only needed one night due to the bus, but they comped it upon checkout. It CAN be a bit noisy on the weekend with the cars revving their engines at the stoplight (it just so happened to be right outside our windows) but thats not anything the hotel can manage; just a heads up if you're a lite sleeper. Breakfast was simple yet delicious all 3 days. The hotel is clean and modern."
