Let's face it, you are looking at this place because you don't want to drop anywhere from 200 to 400 bucks to stay at the Best Western or Red Lion etc... So what do you expect?
The reviews I've read are fair on their own, so if one of them speaks to you, believe THAT one.
The Kings Inn was built during the World's Fair era and it probably hasn't changed much. The lot was clean, our room was clean, and everything had a fresh coat of paint on it. Sure the rooms were small and dated, but in my opinion everything was okay. Our bed was fine, a little worn sure but still fine. I've stayed in worse guest beds in friends homes.
As for the clientele, there was a computer convention in town, bumper shoot, a Husky's game and a Mariner's game all on the same weekend. I think we had a cross-section of those folks staying in the building. There was a little rumble of noise outside but the Night Clerk was quick to talk to the noisy parties and deal with the issues.
I'd guess that it won't be there much longer because of the Condos going up around it and I'm sure that lot is worth a mint.
I rated it as Average for what it is. Please ignore the Terrible rating for Swimming Pool and Fitness Centre because they don't exist, and once you rate an item, TripAdvisor won't let you Unselect it.
