Our breaker box at home died and we had no power or heat. Room had your basic necessities and was reasonably priced. For the 3 days we had to be displaced from our home it was comfortable and convenient. Our interactions with staff were always friendly.

Too busy for us. But we would visit again.

Tumwater is a neutral for me just due to lack of things to do outside of movies, or beer areas. There is great shopping opportunities for groceries, & west Olympia where the mall is is a short drive. Small hiking trail along the deschutes river.
