Super 8 Motel – Shelton

We had to stay here August 10, 2015 since the shop repairing our trailer had not finished. We paid and then I found an advertisement on the local map stating that we could receive a discount for AARP members. I went back to the front desk and Mrs. Kim graciously gave me the discounted price. The next morning we discovered that there was a washer and dryer available to guests. Since we had been on the road for a month this was wonderful. Mr. Kim was working away in the laundry room. They both were so pleasant and it was delightful to see smiles from them since our trailer repair job was not making us happy. The Kims certainly made us happy. Thank you.

Drove 12hrs straight to Washington for a family emergency. Forgot to make a reservation somewhere. Called here and got one, thank goodness! $ 15 a night for our dog on top of $ 80 something a night for us, not bad at all! Clean rooms, comfortable beds, a mini fridge & a microwave. We are happy travelers!

Great location, close to everything you might want. Breakfast was suprisngly better than I expected. Room was clean, and staff was very friendly. We had some questions about Seattle, and the evening desk attended was extremely knowledable and helpful. He made our visit so much enjoyable.

Was grateful for a pet friendly non smoking room with a bed and tv. We also had a mini fridge and microwave. It was a last minute need due to a broken down vehicle. It wasn’t extra fancy but it was perfectly fine. Kind service at the front desk too. Would recommend if you are in the area and need a place to sleep.

Lovely surprise. Beds comfy, owner and staff very sweet and really helpful. Nice breakfast cereal and waffles. Plus you can go to Denny’s near by and get 10% off your bill with your room key. Property is older as expected in area, but smells great and there is a small sitting area outside where you can get some sun and/​or have a smoke. We had a 24 foot trailer which normally freaks out hotel staff, but here they suggested where to park it so they could keep an eye on it. Definitely would come back.

A Super 8 is what a Super 8 is. It is not a full service hotel. It is usually not in the vicinity of haute cuisine. It is a room with a bed, tv, free internet and free parking.
This location is pretty much what you would expect from a Super 8. Checkin was quick and the room was basic. I wish the front desk would give you the internet access code so you didn’t have to call down and deal with someone whose first language is not English to get the internet access code. I don’t know what it is with Super 8’s that the outlet location so you can plug in your computer/​electronics is always in very hard to reach location (under a desk/​almost behind a table). That is one thing they should consider for future locations.
I didn’t grab any breakfast at the hotel as I was in a protein deficit and needed eggs.
Since I was up early I was amazed at how much I could hear from the floor above me as others got up and started their days.
I haven’t stayed at other hotels in the area so I can’t say if I would recommend this location over others in the area, but I can say I have had worse experiences at better hotels.

Pretty much the last available place for me to stay near The Ridge Motorsports park and the reviews on TripAdvisor (which Super8 showcases) were pretty mixed so I wasn’t expecting much. The room is dated, and the color scheme isn’t helped by low wattage incandescents, but it’s clean, has free wifi/​HBO, a working shower, and the bed is better than the next option which is camping. Only complaint so far is the walls are pretty thin, but I’ve stayed in Fairmonts that had plumbing issues and thin walls so whatever. Nice that it’s walking distance to Fred Meyer, Walmart and a host of fast food including a Dennys.
It’s a motel, k?

It’s a Super 8, so no surprises. I pulled into town at 3:30 a.m. and the counter clerk only made me pay ½ the rate for a room that night.
