This was a quaint, clean room, with all the necessary items for a short stay. Window opened but no screen. Being on the second floor with an a view of Mt. Rainer was great. Others need to know only outdoor stair access to second floor.

Book ground floor if you have sizable luggage. Paid for top floor with view of Mount Rainer, honestly not worth the additional charge. Carpet in need of steam cleaning. Bathroom clean with hot water after long day hiking. Ripped bed cover and dirty pillow slip. Changed on request. Laundry available with charge that is done by staff. Be mindful and triple check what clothes you give and what you get back. Lost socks and a tshirt, got someone else’s socks in return!!

This place is pretty rundown especially for the rate paid. For example there are almost no electrical outlets in the room to charge devices. The one that were there are so old and worn that charging cables fall out, how is that even safe, or up to code? It rained the night we were there and turned the parking lot into a lake, making our car inaccessible until morning. It feels like the place was built in the 1950’s and has apparently had no renovation since.

I have stayed at this hotel many times since 2014 for family vacations. Last time before this stay it was in 2020. It was always very nice and cozy! The staff is always very nice, friendly and attentive! But this time it was just awful: Cockroaches were crawling everywhere in the room with a kitchen! At night, cockroaches were crawling right on the body! This has never happened before! We were shocked! But that's the only thing bad, everything else there is excellent!

Older property but clean room and air conditioner. Super convenient as grocery store is right next door and restaurants within walking distance including a coffee shop and brewery! Front office staff was friendly and the location is convenient for those headed to the Paradise and Sunrise entrances of Mt. Rainier. Highly recommend Packwood Inn.

Mixed.
The carpet needs an immediate shampoo. The bed and bathroom were clean and in good shape. The refrigerator was much better than most other hotel refrigerators. The second step from the ground on the stairs not facing the street should be replaced before any more of it rots away. We had a peak of Mt. Rainier from our window!

In room AC was weak to non-functional, shared water heatereant insufficient hot water in the morning. Staff was excellent, room was otherwise clean and comfortable. Easy walk to dining/shopping. Easy parking, easy to find. Would stay at this location again for easy trips to Mt.Rainer National Park or Mt.Saint Helens.

Nice location and very close to Mt Raininer NP. Also has a grocery nearby in walking distance. But our room is kind in bad condition. Limited ceiling height and feels not spacious, I would say it is rather a motel not an Inn. Very noisy especially when people walking upstairs.

Among its peers, this motel does the job well. Clean and good check-in and -out experience. All I needed was a clean bed and bathroom with a/c (wall unit of course), and that’s what I got. Wasn’t looking for something to lounge around in. It is good for what it is. Area doesn’t have a lot of options, and I’d go back to this motel again when in area.

Average motel stay to experience the 70s
The only key positive about this place is its proximity to Mt. Ranier NP. Otherwise it is really old and dated. The dark decor makes made it worse. The big downside is the bathroom. The bathroom window offers no privacy. An opaque glass or curtain would work. Otherwise it’s an average place that is fairly clean.
