Great House Motel

Great value for money

The price and location, especially for June stood out to me. I have stayed here several times before.

On the last day I checked the bottom corner of my mattress and was horrified. Also I heard movements and sounds of small creatures running around behind the walls and ceiling. A man staying next to me heard it as well and reported the pest. Due to the mattress findings, I ran to a laundry mat and a local store to buy supplies. I will NEVER stay here again. There was a time I gave this place an extremely high rating, unfortunately the 'Not' so Great House is no longer what it once was.

Check-in went well. Location was near enough to the main entrance of Olympic National Park.

The room interior and furnishings were old and in a somewhat poor state. I saw at least ten critters in the room, of which at least five were cockroaches. The dining table had what appeared to be dried food stains. The bed was saggy in the middle. There was dust or dirt in some areas of the room, as well as some hair that wasn't mine. I didn't deduct any points for this, but it's worth mentioning that unlike most of the other rooms in this motel, this king room is on the second floor and so you need to haul your luggage up some stairs.

The bed was very firm and squeaky. The shower knob didn't work well, was impossible to get it to rest on a temperature that wasn't too hot or too cold. Otherwise it was clean, had a microwave, coffee maker and mini fridge.

The location was perfect! It is right in the middle of Sequim next to a grocery store, QFC, lovely huge park Carrie Blake and five minutes walk from downtown. The room has a refrigerator and microwave and small coffeepot--perfect for storing leftovers from the many restaurants nearby. It was very cozy and the AC was perfect during the warm day and they have lots of extra blankets for night. The owners were very kind and they have a bulletin board with Thank you notes from over the years from all their travelers. You can tell people really appreciate the effort they make. Thank you for the stay!

The room was definitely not what we were hoping for. The furniture was curb alert chic. There was a power strip screwed to the wall, for the tv and cable box. There was coffee still in the coffee maker from a previous guest. I asked for ice and was told that the ice machine was broken and I would have to go to the gas station next door to buy ice. The shower head was taped on with duct tape and dripped all night so the bathroom floor was wet from the drip spatter.

Clean rooms and on the road so easily accessible

Heater was not working and no water for drinking
