There were only two hotels with outdoor pools in Yakima. Hotel Y looked like a nice hotel online but it was not in the best area. The room had a smell, a few gnats were in the room, the towels did not smell freshly cleaned. I will not be staying there again.

Flooring in the bathroom needs to be repaired. It seems as though there was a little bit of water flow that lifted the flooring, creating a slight problem. But nothing that was worth complaining about only to bring note to maintenance. I always stay here because it is clean, reasonable, and easy access off the freeway. Great breakfast, and great staff. The beds are very comfortable and bedding is nice as well!
