We should have clued in when we walked into our room and there were packages of ear plugs that it wouldn’t be quiet…but we didn’t. The location is great, fun theme throughout, clean aside from a hair that didn’t belong to us in the bathroom, but this place has a lot of noise. Maybe you can sleep through it? I couldn’t. A lot of folks before complained about parking but I didn’t see it as an issue at all (and I drive a midsize SUV). There is a parking fee of $5/night and parking is inside a gate. I loved that it was right across from the Knitting Factory, as we were there for a concert. Easy walk to the west end breweries and downtown. We didn’t need our car at all once we arrived.

No parking on site, I thought they had advertised free breakfast but only gave a coupon for 1 and not one for each guest, the coffee maker only had product for 1 cup of morning coffee, could have provided an extra towel. At 2:00 am I was awaken with what sounded like a trash compactor crushing glass and metal. Neighborhood was questionable. I appreciate what they are Trying to do with the quaint property but not good for older folks looking for a quite neighborhood.

Hotel is situated in an okay area, we stayed alert walking back to our hotel in the evening- a few interesting individuals out and about. There are a few individuals hanging out in the parking lot but they seemed to be harmless. It is rather noisy at night- must be the reason there were earplugs on the nightstand. Overall for an older hotel it is fairly clean and comfortable.

No parking on site. Then they charge us to park in what they call a sister site 2 blocks away. Staff didn’t tell us until we checked out.

The parking was terrible! We weren’t informed that the gates are locked until 7am, luckily a security guard at a restaurant told us, that way we were able to park on the street. We needed to be out of there by 3am.

The girl who checked me in lost my paperwork so i had to fill it out again the next day. Parking is so limited. Couldn't get a full night's sleep because of all the noise: music from the bars, people hanging out in the parking lot, traffic sounds. Will never stay here again.

Great location in Downtown Spokane
Great location close to the Knitting Factory where we were attending a concert. Clean simple room. Saphire Bar was a delight. Staff were all very friendly, helpful, and professional. There is quite a bit of noise being in downtown. Not the hotels fault. If you are looking for a very quiet place you may be happier at another hotel. The location is a winner for us. We will be back at Hotel Ruby.
