The lobby closed at 8pm. There were only about half of the lights that worked. They were supposed to have wifi but it wouldn't work. Tv remote had no batteries and the remote was broken. We didn't feel safe there so we rushed out in the morning. Overall the worste hotel experience I've had.

Website showed a totally different hotel. Room smelled horrible and very chemically. No proper blanket. The blanket looked like a curtain. The breakfast was cereal and bread. There were no other options. My kids didn’t even want to eat. The only milk option was skim milk. The pool was closed and broken. Just overall a horrible stay and will not be booking this hotel again.

After I got checked in and given my room key, I proceeded to the room they assigned. I reserved a king size single bed smoking, but that wasn’t what I got. I chose this hotel because I was looking to relax in the pool, however that couldn’t happen because it was empty and not working. There were holes in the walls of the room. The safety locks that are found inside the room were nonexistent. The faucet in the bathtub ran constantly all night. The toilet seat was detached, only the lid was there. Needless to say, my experience was horrible and I won’t stay at Magnuson Hotel ever again. The photos they have posted on these sites are lies. This is a hotel that I would not recommend to anyone.

The good was check-in went well and the initial appearance of the hotel and room were satisfactory. The price was good. The shower was good The bad was 1. The sheets were stained with black markings as well as the shower curtain and side of the shower. 2. the pillow cases smelled musty. 3. The bath tub had old/used soap. 4. Internet didn't work. 5. The room came with breakfast. Bull. It came with coffee, 1 slice of white bread (replaced with 6 more), some corn flakes and Cheerios with no milk (until complained and then some was found in the back room). I didn't expect a hot breakfast but this was ridiculous. Generally there is yogurt, some fruit, cereal, milk, juice, and coffee at a minimum. If they do not wish to provide a breakfast don't advertise that it is provided.

I made it sure I got my 3hr sleeping time. I rushed to get out quickly because I’m afraid of bugs and the unsanitary tub. This is my 1st time not to go to shower in any motel or inn. Tub was too mouldy!

The only good thing was the night staff that tried to accommodate all the wrong things with the room. There were holes in the wall, headboard was ripped off the wall, the door had been kicked in, there were roaches around the AC.

Toilet paper looked like it was dropped in toilet and left to dry. Sick was broke. Neighbors were loud. Breakfast served was only toast. DO NOT RECOMMEND

Would not recommend. Hotel was horrible and I should have known better! But my experience at another Magnuson hotel was good. Shower curtain fell down, water was cold for shower. Stains on floor, on wall, on bed, etc. No TV (without having to set up the service) 2025 version of the Bates Motel. Hotel clerk barely spoke English!
