The rooms were clean and well equipped with a (pod) coffee maker, microwave, fridge, and plenty of towels. The staff were friendly and helpful. The location is excellent for walking access to downtown Spokane restaurants and attractions. On-site parking is inexpensive ($5/day) and did not completely fill during a weekend visit. A few things about our stay were a surprise. - In spite of "Hotel" in the name, this is motel-style lodging, with no interior hallways; all rooms are accessed from exterior doors. - Free Breakfast: This is not on site, but at a restaurant a couple short blocks away. Free breakfast is limited to 2 guests per room, per day. - Fitness Facility: This is also not on site, but guests have access at a different hotel a couple of blocks away. - Nearby train tracks: these have frequent trains but the noise was not bad inside the room. The hotel provides earplugs, but we didn't need them. - Vintage cartoons projected on the wall of the building in the evenings provided a touch of fun. (There was no sound, so this was not a disturbance).

Disliked: Amenities
The rooms are very outdated. Everything's worn vent tore up. Reminded me of a motel. 6. Very cheap. Beds are uncomfortable not to mention the noise from the train and they ask you to ask them to clean your room and you do and they don't clean it. It happens all Ruby properties cuz I stayed at Ruby River and the same thing happened twice as much per night per room too. Staff was friendly but it doesn't make up for everything else. Not to mention it's downtown very shady lot of homeless

Steam Plant Hotel offered an abundent of opportunities to explore the locations in downtown Spokane. The hotel is clean, cozy, and easily accessed. Our room was warm (great for winter!), comfortable, and well stocked with essentials. Check in and check out were simple and friendly-great staff! Partner dinning options were great! Ate dinner at the Steam Plant Bar and breakfast (included!) at Rosie's, both were fabulous! Downtown offers very walkable locations to explore, the riverfront was beautiful!
