Best Hotels near Ostroms Drug & Gift, Kenmore

The hotel should have just been renovated, the exterior looks rather old, but the rooms have been renovated so they are still pretty good. The location of the hotel is also ok, and the breakfast is relatively simple, and it is the shop with the least variety.

I rarely write a bad review, but for the money it just isn't the best. First the front desk staff was not the friendliest. She wasn't rude, just not friendly or helpful. The hotel was clean, but seemed to have an issue with the plumbing. Our toilet got backed up and when I called the front desk they told me I'd have to plunge it myself and come to the front desk to get the plunger. When asked why they didn't send maintenance they said the owner did the maintenance and wouldn't be in until Tuesday (this was Saturday night). And they wouldn't even bring the plunger to the room. The clerk was not very apologetic. She sounded more like this was routine. When I was headed down to the front desk I noticed a closet in the hallway that had 2 plunges and 2 buckets in it. I was on the 3rd floor. It seems that this must be a common problem for this hotel. What got me was not only did I have to fix the toilet myself and they wouldn't bring the plunger to the room, it was the front desk person seemly lack of concern. For the $250 a night we were paying, I'd have expected better service.

The location is suitable for a holiday by the lake; very quiet. Guests with cars are very convenient; there is a car park. There are docks where you can rent a boat with your children. The restaurant is nice and the environment is quiet.

I’ve stayed at this hotel whenever I’m in Bellevue, WA for well over thirty years. My earliest memories of this property were as a Red Lion Hotel. Then it became a Double Tree and finally, on its deathbed , it’s a Hilton. How the mighty have fallen… Not withstanding the property, which I’ll get into, I will say that the staff are generally kind and helpful. So this review is not to diminish their efforts. However hard they work, the reality is this property is beyond salvage and should be torn down and a new property should be built in its place. The bedrooms are grossly outdated, and when you look behind the doors, or in between the furniture, you’ll see how old this hotel is. While it’s sizeable in space and scope, the elevators are tragically slow, with two-of-four being out of commission when we stayed there recently. Sadly, the water pressure is so low it takes forever to wash and rinse. Our keycard failed three separate times, requiring a long walk and painful elevator ride back to the main desk where the staff reset the keycard. The pool is functioning, but there were never enough chairs and loungers. Add to this there were never enough fresh towels and you’re getting the taste of mediocrity this hotel delivers. One absolutely disgusting site is the swamp that lies just beside the pool (down the concrete foundation about twenty feet). I have no idea who thinks this is aesthetically pleasing, but it’s not. It’s home to a few ducks who clearly have poor taste in accommodations, as did we. This poolside unattraction is downright ugly. One thing I was interested to see were several staff members not wearing any type of formal Hilton uniforms. The breakfast buffet chef was literally dressed in Carharts with a t-shirt, work boots and a ball cap on. And one of the maintenance staff looked like he just walked in off the street. Management must have been on vacation at another property. Finally, the outside of the building, including the massive sloping glass facade, clearly hasn’t been washed in decades. And worse, yet, the parking area is filthy to say the least. Food containers, candy wrappers, cigarette butts and hygiene products lay a strewn for days with no effort to maintain a modest effort in appearance. This was the last time we will stay at this hotel. If you want to save yourself frustration and disappointment, I encourage you to stay at the new Marriott up the street. Literally blocks away, it’s a cleaner, nicer bet.

Not gonna lie, had not held a meeting at the Embassy Suites in 20 years and boy have I been delighted! Service wonderful, clean, friendly, organized, staffed. Pleasantly surprised how great everything has been. Room set up perfectly. Smiling staff. They are very accommodating and flexible. Appreciate Embassy Suites in Lynnwood today! 70 independent insurance agents in attendance.

The hotel is quite far away from down town although it's nice hotel and some good restaurant nearby. Facility is good and they have a restaurant & bar inside, very nice. You can also find some good restaurants that not far from the hotel.

The location served our needs and the room appeared clean upon arrival. However, we have mixed emotions regarding this property. There was a very friendly young man at the front desk who was very caring and helpful. He was wonderful. On the other side, the fire alarm went off at 5AM and when we called the front desk, the first couple times there was no response, then someone hung up on us. In addition, we were told every other day the room would be cleaned. We stayed 3 nights and our room was never cleaned.
