Top Blue Rapids Hotel Reviews

Heritage Inn Express

8/10 Good

"WiFi was terrible, off and on."

An Updated, Secluded family friendly home with Fast Wifi

10/10 Excellent

"The house is very spacious. Our kids enjoyed having the upstairs to themselves. The view from the living room was beautiful and I found myself just sitting and looking out the windows often. Kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked. Host was prompt when an issue came up with the auto door lock glitching."

Travelodge by Wyndham Marysville

8/10 Good

"The property seems to attract alot of railroad workers. It does not have a free breakfast, but does have "Penny's" a nearby 24-hr restaurant. Initially I was booked to stay in the lower level of one building. The motel manager managed to get the booking changed to the upstairs of an adjacent building. This building appeared to have new carpet and paint. However, the A/C in that room was not working properly. I checked again with the manager who assigned me a different room in the 2nd building. My stay in that building was clean, quiet, and comfortable. I was traveling for business. The "Penny's" diner nearby had good service for eggs, sausage and hash browns for breakfast. Local workers and farmers often eat there."

4BR Family Home w/Game Room & Spacious Yard

10/10 Excellent

"Four couples stayed and there was ample space for everyone. We had an additional family of five join for a visit and there was still plenty of room. The game room provided a lot of entertainment. We have stayed at various rentals and this one met our needs. The host was very attentive to all of our inquiries."
