FairBridge Inn & Suites

Ok, just wow! For anyone looking for affordable swaggy and great service in their hotel, get to FairBridgeInn & Suites.
Firstly, it has everything you need: Mini Fridge, Microwave, and Free wifi.
Secondly the staff are super helpful. Especially the Manager (guy in charge at the time of my visit).
Here is why:
I was coming from Everett to Leavenworth to see my Dad after years apart, because of work. So my dad is really excited and wants to be the man and take me to dinner, grab a drink, be the provider. Growing up, this was something he wasn’t always able to do. Man gets by, barely, almost homeless more times than I could count. But has a heart of gold. Almost too much heart.
He called me all joyful, because he’d booked us a great room. But dammit, I had just booked a room before at FairBridgeInn. So this was a huge problem. I had to take his room otherwise hurt his pride. No way, the man is far too down on himself already. I felt I had been rushed to grab my reservation, now I was looking at a wasted $ 80.00 (with AAA).
So I called and pleaded my case. Gale told me the «sir, unfortunately we-​blah blah blah,» the corporate Womp-​Womp. So I was seething. Rap music and Metallica for the next 50 miles. When I arrive, ready to submit but still pissed and a little delirious Gale saves the day.
She understands my frustration and grabs her manager. He comes forward from the back and is all charm and heart. Heard me out and allowed me a refund. It was an unfortunate circumstance, because I do really want to stay here! My dads choice was real shady, but it was about pride at that point. GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE! Gale is a really sweet young lady and the manager was a gentleman. Great place, service and affordable rooms, and guest recovery. Do it.
Thank you, FairBridgeInn & Suites.

We found a deal for this place and the hotel turned out to be great for the bargain we got. We new we were going to spend more time exploring than staying in. The staff was great for checking in and checking out. Our room was wonderful. We had a nice view from room. The bonus was the breakfast. It was such a nice continental breakfast… I’ve never had a place serve actual hot food for breakfast. It was nice. Plus the coffee, hot chocolate and juice in the lobby was a plus. We went tubing and really craved hot chocolate and snacks late at night and it was nice to have the lobby be so convenient for all that. We had no complaints about the room. The bed was comfy, the housekeeper kept us well stocked and clean, the heater was amazing. All around just happy with the experience. If you don’t have a ton of money to spend on a fancier resort… this place is pretty good. Plus! So close to town! We walked everywhere! Only had to take our car to the ski hill and that was it. The parking lot and walkways are well plowed.

You get what you pay for, a little mom and pop motel with country charm. The breakfast buffet is cute with a waffle bar, biscuits, gravy, eggs, cereal and muffin/​bagel assortment. Juices, hot chocolate and coffee all day and you can rent movies and popcorn for your room. The indoor pool and hot tub is a plus and the hours are late so that’s great. Location is close to the center of town and the staff is friendly enough. The room is old school, beds aren’t super comfy but it does the job. I would stay here again but if you are a picky person or don’t enjoy kitschy then you probably would not enjoy this spot.

Very average to below average hotel. The best thing they have going for them is the ski and stay package. It includes 2 lift tickets to Stevens Pass, and includes breakfast. We stayed 1 night, and went to the Stevens Pass, about a 40 min drive. If you need a place to just crash for the night as a stop on your way to ski/​snowboard it does the job, and it was clean. Furnishings leave much to be desired. Our friends had a room with a fireplace and it was really nice and modern, so ask for that type of room. They hire teenagers as a staff at front desk, some are very sweet and others, well, are not.
Breakfast was eggs, sausage, biscuits, pastries, cereal, waffles, fruit, yogurt, and… the did offer some GF options. don’t bother with the coffee at breakfast or the lobby it is terrible. They give you kerug coffee in the room and it is much better or just go to Starbucks.

This is a fantastic place to stay! I didn’t have high expectations as it is more of a budget place than the rest of the hotels we have stayed at previously.
The price was right, it is a quick 4 minute walk to town, breakfast is free, coffee is plentiful and service was great! You can even rent movies and popcorn from the front desk for $ 8 (2 movies.)
This was a great find and we will definitely be back! Very happy with our stay.

It was very clean and nice in the room. And it is very close to the Lights Show. The only thing I have to say bad is the free breakfast is OK but not the best.

No clue what’s the bad reviews below about. For how much we are paying for it is a real gem. Although while we were staying there, it seems to be renovation going on. Honestly, the room is clean, bed is comfortable. Bathroom is shower for us, but it’s ok. There is an indoor jacuzzi and pool downstairs so if you feel like staying in the water it’s just one floor away :) Receptionist was really helpful and friendly when we checked in, she helped us on finding a good late night dinner place in town.
Of Course is not a resort of any kind, but for our budget it some got cool amenities like breakfast, $ 5 movies and popcorn, and a cool sun deck!

The receptionist was a depressed teenager, who didn’t tell us that our King size bed had been changed to 2 Queen size beds. It turned out that the extra bed worked out for us, since 1 of the beds had a blood stained comforter! The sink was cracked and dirty, the carpet smelled like sweaty feet and the free Wi-​Fi kept losing connection. The free breakfast was decent, nothing special. Walking distance to the shops. Next time, we’ll pay extra to stay somewhere nicer.

Shower pressure and water tempature are unpredictable, no healthy choices for breakfast, expected more for the price. However the rooms were very clean and the pool nice.

We recently stayed here over a long weekend. We really enjoyed our time in Leavenworth and even staying at FairBridge Inn & Suites. Unfortunately, we got stuck in their elevator at about 10pm for about an hour. We spent the first fifteen minutes trying to contact someone, then the front desk woman came down and tried a few things. She was friendly, but still couldn’t get it open. At about 11pm we took out all the tools we had with us and tried to pry open the door. It eventually opened and we snuck out before the door slammed shut again. The front desk woman was very apologetic and said she’d speak to the manager and comp us for the trouble. No comp or even apology came. I’ve called and emailed and received no reply or further information on this. Besides this incident, everything else seemed pretty good. I would probably give it a 4 or 5 star even had it not been for the unprofessional way the elevator situation was handled.

You get what you pay for here. We did enjoy the hot breakfast and kids loved the pool but the rooms really need help. There not clean and outdated. Our shower curtain had some pretty gross looking stuff all over it, hair in the shower, and a dirty bathroom floor. The tile was also cracked and broke off the bottom border of the floor very unsafe and easy for someone to hurt themselves. If the rooms were cleaner we would have enjoyed it a lot more.

My bf and I were actually camping for the weekend but we’re too tired to drive home on our last day, so we went into town for lunch and bid on a hotel. We got one for a great price!!! We were SO excited to see it was walking distance from town! We checked in and walked back into town for a beer ^.^
Our room was clean and cute! Nice tv with a ton of channels. The art work throughout the hotel is so cute and quaint, it totally feels like you are in a cute German mountain village inn! The hotel has an indoor pool and 24 hour unlimited juice/​coffee and tea in the lobby! Also a pretty impressive ftee continental bfast. It was awesome!!! You just have to catch it from 7−10am which was so nice because most hotel breakfasts are early and you miss them if you sleep in. I loved this hotel and wished we had a longer stay there!

This place is lucky enough to get one star, let alone two. if there was a way to give it half a star I’d give it 1.5.
To start off, the room… ugh. the pillows had hair on them (word of advice, bring your own pillow or two), which either was from a previous attendee or from the cleaning person. the bed… one isn’t supposed to feel the springs when one is moving around on the bed. I’ve traveled the world, and stayed in hostel’s that had better beds in them this one.
The shower experience… hahahahhahaha…I’m sorry, but the pressure sucked, and for the fact that we’re paying what we’re paying, it should be slightly better then a trickle that seems forced by trickle standard. Again, I’ve stayed in hostels in parts of the world that had better pressure. I’ve stayed in an orphanage in Mexico that has better pressure. IN MEXICO!!!
Now…the food. HAHAHHAHHA… ahem. The breakfast is part of the stay, and I’m sorry to say, but the person or persons cooking, need to go back to cooking school and learn how to make eggs fit for normal people. they need to learn how to make food fit for people period. The eggs alone I had issues with, and because of something like that, I didn’t venture trying anything else, outside of the bread (again, if you’re going to be offering toast, some better bread, this is LEAVENWORTH FOR PITIES SAKE) and bagels; thankfully the cereal one cannot mess up. Again, I’ve stayed in hostels in other parts of the world that had better food, not to mention that the orphanage I stayed in Mexico had better food. The fact that I can say a Mexican Orphanage has better food then a supposed great hotel in tourist country in Leavenworth… is not a good thing.
All in all, that being said. If someone on staff or the owner reads this, do yourselves a favor and fix the place. Because when you have better places next door, like Red Lion or places that are more Barvarian-esque…or for that matter, Sleeping Lady right up the road, you should attempt to up your game.
At least the front desk people were nice.

This hotel is gross. GROSS. Do not stay here unless you can handle dog hair everywhere and vomit on the walls. Our room was filthy. Our bedding was filthy. The breakfast room is pretty, but filthy. Fire your maids or TAKE SOME PRIDE IN OWNERSHIP AND CLEAN IT YOURSELVES. This place has a lovely view and the opportunity to be a great little place but the management is not taking care of it. Disappointed in the rate in paid for staying in filth. I understand it is Christmas and you are busy, but that also means you are making money. Use some of it to care for your investment. I would not stay here again.

Very disappointing! For the price they charge i would expect that someone would be sure there was no mold in the windows and on the shower ceiling.
It’s drafty because when then installed the heater/​air conditioning they left a large gap that is completely open to the elements.
The room is run down and worn out. I felt like i stepped through a time warp and ended up in 1990. I think that the debris that is stuck on the dresser is also from the 90’s.
This owner should reevaluate the maintenance staff, i don’t have enough time to list all the things wrong in this room.
Be warned, this is NOT an Inn or Suites. It is a cheap motel.
I would stay here again, IF every bridge and cardboard box was already taken!

Not top tier by any stretch, but worthy place to rest thy head with some nice, key amenities. The heated indoor pool, location (short walk from downtown), breakfast in a spacious room, friendly front desk, and family friendly accommodations (dogs welcome!) make this a good option. If your cleanliness requirements are detailed, this might not be your place.
Government rates offered!

Stayed over the Labor Day weekend and I would not stay there again. Way over priced for a hotel/​inn that is about as clean as most truck stop hotels/​motels and I have stayed in some of those truck stop motels that were ALOT cleaner.
Check-​in was a breeze, the staff at the front desk were very helpful and seemed like they really cared about you.
The location is close to all the tourist traps and within easy walking distance. Parking is a little odd, rooms were not very clean unless you discount the cobwebs, and hair in the hand towels.
The bed would be comfortable if you like a lumpy, and mushy mattress. Then there were the half pillows. WTF? Half a pillow (but they gave you five of them) did not go well with an uncomfortable bed.
The bathroom was clean other than the hair in the towels. When the room was serviced, they went through the room and did minimal amount of cleaning. The window coverings were dirty and broken, and the windows were also dirty.
They do have a Breakfast there, but we opted to explore the down. With the cost of a breakfast at Sandy’s waffle house… eat at the hotel and save your funds.
Our door to our room had apparently been kicked-​in in the past so instead of replacing the door, they just put new hinges on it and semi repaired the door jam and there you go! Not very secure.
This property needs a lot of renovations. Heck even the maids carts are dilapidated and falling a part. I have stayed in older properties that were better, cleaner and more secure for the customer than this property. I am sure the owner can spare a little pocket change to make some MUCH NEEDED IMPROVEMENTS. It would not take much to raise this from a 2 star to a 3 star. After looking into the ownership of the building I have affirmed why it is in such poor shape. Do your research and pay just a little more and stay at a cleaner and more secure property. I do feel that the price was way out of line for a property this old and in this bad of shape.

All I can say is that this place is dirty. I would not stay here again. The room reminds me of a truck stop motel 6. Parking is VERY limited and tight.

Good little room. The staff was really nice and helpful. Just a stones throw from town. The indoor pool was worth it on a snowy day or night. There was a little too much chlorine in the water but it was still worth it. One plus with the pool was that it stays open til 12am for adults. Quiet room. Comfy bed. Decent flat screen tv (new enough to plug in my AppleTv). The breakfast was pretty awesome. Waffles. Biscuits and Gravy. Scrambled eggs. Sausage. and Cereal.
Really couldn’t have asked for anything more for 89bucks.

Overall: It says something that I would probably not stay here again. The experience was not terrible or wonderful… But some things were below expectation: Electronics should simply just work and the room should feel clean and well designed.
Pros:
–Close to town.
–Had a vacancy during December (so rare!)
–Room is neat.
–Staff is friendly.
–It’s a hotel.
Cons:
–Heater is intense and out of control. Same with the shower.
–Toilet needs to be tricked into flushing
–Towels are sharp and stabby.
–Room had a weird smell.
–TV volume keeps fluctuating for no reason
–Room door is outside. Walls too thin. You can hear EVERYTHING.
–The pillows are made for midgets. They’re basically a whole pillow cut in half.
–Door doesn’t always latch when shut. You have to jiggle it a bunch otherwise you’ll likely find that your room is open to the elements aka the icy breath of death once you return home.
