What guests think

Across reviews of Western Inn Lakewood, guests consistently describe friendly, accommodating staff and budget pricing, while noting dated, sparsely furnished rooms, limited amenities, and a very basic breakfast that often consists of coffee and packaged pastries.

Cleanliness is mixed, with some clean, fresh-smelling rooms and others reporting odors, stained bedding, or missed housekeeping. Rooms are basic and dated, with reports of unreliable Wi‑Fi, weak hot water or AC, occasional broken fixtures, and noise from traffic or other guests. The location is convenient for quick stops, though several guests felt the area was sketchy and mentioned tight parking or tricky access. Best for a short, budget stopover.

I liked the fact they have smoking rooms. What I didn't like was what they called a continental breakfast.

Staff was friendly at check in and accommodated my request for a non smoking room after realizing my reservation was for a smoking room. This is an older place but for the price it’s definitely worth it for a good night’s rest after a long day of driving.

It was easy to check-in and out. Room was clean. Had no problem finding parking. Plus, the parking lot was lit so I felt like my car was safe. Hoping this was only a one-time thing but at 2am a bunch of guests came and spent well over an hour blaring music in their room and out at their cars talking/laughing very loud and drinking beer.

First room I was in I accidentally booked a smoking room. Not from the cigarette smoke alone but the room was DISGUSTING. Wouldn’t sleep there for sure. The toilet didn’t work so I swapped rooms and requested a non smoking room and substantially better. I think it was OKAY (not good) for the price.

We checked in Saturday around 11:15 and the manager up dated our Hotel from smoking to nonsmoking,and put us on the main floor. They were very nice to us and told us about the Continent home breakfast. When we went into the hotel room it smelled very nice like pine sent. We injoyed the nice comfortable queen sized bed. There were plenty of clean towls for us to use, along with soap and shampoo!

Quick one-night stay for a meeting the next day. Convenient location and very hospitable and friendly staff. Fast food (DQ) a block away and an AM-PM Mini Mart across the street. The first thing I noticed was that the room smelled great! Not real fancy but for an "overnighter" the bed was comfortable and the room was clean.

Clean room...however, pretty sparse room and the lights switch next to bed is broken. The toilet is this little tiny mini one, barely usable. Never seen one so low and small. The hot water only remained hot for a few moments, so my hot bath wasn't hot. That was a big disappointment and highly unusual. Honestly, this room ought to be highly discounted for these reasons. I will ask for one when I check out.

The property says it has wifi however it didn't work for the duration of my stay. I informed the front desk twice over the 2 days I was there. They said they would reboot the modem but it the internet never connected. The water was cold. Even when the shower was at full blast with only the hot faucet turned on the warmest it got was tepid at best. My keycard lost connection after I was out for an event. The front desk reactivated it when I gave them my room number without even asking my name. Anyone could come with an old keycard and get access to the rooms since they do no verification before giving keys.

The hotel room was very dated, very few amenities. But you can see that from the photos. I was happy with how clean it was-didn’t smell bad, just stale air kind of smell. The ac unit didn’t work properly, and I was told by the office that it’s just how it was. The person who checked me in and checked me out were both very nice. The person I spoke with was not as pleasant, nor the person I had to ask for toilet paper. It says housekeeping is included, but they only came by on the morning after our first night, not to be seen again

I shouldve just slept in my car. Waited 20 minutes in the lobby for someone to finally show up. Had to shove the couch against my door so i would feel safe. Really loved the huge firework that was let off at 1130pm. Thought someone was shooting at my door. Breakfast is literally a honeybun. Please save your money and go some place else.

Staff were helpful and pleasant to deal with. Breakfast is tea or coffee, no milk/cream, only powdered coffee whitener. There is a choice of juices from a self-serve machine, and a choice of 2 prepackaged pastries. Of our 4 days there, 2 of the days had no coffee available. You can get hot water any time of day if you bring you bring your own tea etc.
