I would seriously advice to go somewhere else, pay a little more and sleep at a clean place. Dirty, smelled bad, stains everywhere, the guy at the front desk is rude and you wont even want to touch the miserable coffee machine in the room. Everything is very old and creepy, the view is nice, but that about it. I... More

This place has a great view of the lake, wi-fi works perfectly and the mattress was comfortable. All the rest was awlful. Really dirty, stains everywhere, bad smelll, phone missing keys, bulbs missing, the carpet was dark and we could see stains all over, even the towels were dirty. I felt bad to let my dog sleep there (lol). We... More

We used to stay here because of the lakeside view and balcony and clean rooms, but even though housekeeping assured the desk clerk when he called to check in front of us that the room was clean, they lied. The bathtub had moldy soap flecks from previous guests, there was no Kleenex and the toilet paper dispenser was both empty... More

Almost nothing was clean except for the lack of dust on surfaces. Linens (shoe marks), carpets (bits of trash), drawers (bits of things), washing basin (barely O.K. if you use the shower), towels (does not look good), you name it. The bath sink was clogged although he fixed it upon request. The flushing mechanism of the toilet also needs fixing... More

I have stayed at this location many times. I have always been treated very well. Gary is very helpful and courteous as well as the rest of the people there. Breakfast waffle and cookies and muffins,juice are addiquite to get you started. A good place to land for the value. Jack Limbaugh

I arrived after a long day of travelling and working and all I wanted was a place to lay my head. The staff was friendly and the price was right. I found the room to be bright and cheery. The staff (Gary was on duty that night) was very considerate of a woman travelling alone and offered a room over... More

My friend and I stayed at this motel as she had made a reservation prior to our arrival. The staff was not friendly and the room was not the cleanest. We had to ask for extra towels, of which the (presumed) manager led me to the laundry room where he retrieved towels from a laundry basket. The "continental breakfast" consisted... More

The room itself was pretty old and dated. The rates were really cheap but the carpet was not clean. My mom was wearing socks and they got pretty black on the soles. The blankets had burn marks. Room had a microwave and bthroom felt a bit industrial to me. I had booked two queen beds. It ended up being like... More

We decided to go find snow one winter evening, and decided to stay in the Chehalis/Centralia area because of the random snow accumulation. We have passed Americas Best Value Inn many times while driving down Interstate 5 and we have wanted to stay there for a long time due to the view of the lake. Call us crazy, but we... More

We stayed here for 1 night during our 3-weeks-northwestern tour. The Motel is right next to the freeway but wasn´t as noisy as expected when we arrived. There was nobody at the front desk upon arrival. After about 10 minutes waiting and ringing the bell (we already thought about leaving and finding a place where they love to have guests)... More
