Reviews for Trade Winds North Hotel
Review 1:When we arrived, it looked like the Trade Winds had become a Motel 6. The counter person barley spoke, and seemed to only care about listening to music on their phone. The sign outside, and online said Wi-Fi and breakfast, which they no longer offered apparently. The room was ok. The bed was practically a rock slab, and so were the pillows. It was also fairly filthy under the bed.
Review 2:The location was good. Being directly on Division street made traveling for shopping and eating very convenient.
Review 3:One lampshade in room was broken, worried about getting charged for it. Notified staff, they said would bring a new one, but that never happened. They stopped serving the continental breakfast.
Review 4:Friendly staff. Have been there before.
Review 5:They discontinued continental breakfast. They had a new computer system and couldn't print me a receipt. Also, I booked room for check in on 30 Dec 15, check out 31 Dec 15. Booking.com gave them data that I checked in 29 Dec 15 and was already there. When I checked out, they thought I owed for two nights. Was worried going to be charged double for one night due to your mistake. My confirmation on my phone said proper dates, their computer said different dates.
Review 6:Nice location in center of city on main street. Friendly staff. Clean room.
Review 7:An employee/manager we will call, "Charlene" -working the daytime front desk- refused to honor our confirmation from Booking.com for a late check out, even though we checked in late, and were given a confirmation receipt, she was outrageous in her belligerence, has absolutely zero skill or bedside manner for the hospitality industry. She single handedly ruined our stay, and we will never again stay with this company again, nor utilize a booking site/system which cannot honor it's own guidelines.
Review 8:Great hotel by way of the initial impression of the place, i.e., large bed, comfortable pillows, etc.
Review 9:I wish I was able to review this hotel. We booked due to a majorwindstorm knocking out power throughout half the city. Many hotels hadnotifications that they too had no power. We saw no such warning so webooked. Only to find a deserted parking lot. We did run into an employeein the who was nice enough I suppose. But real quick to tell us that thehotel would not be responsible for reimbursement & seemed a bitannoyed that we had questions or that we were even there. I am 8mthspregnant & we had out 15mth old daughter & 3yr old nephew in thecar excited to finally have heat, cartoons & most of all, swim! Itwas a major disappointment. Thankfully we did not get charged. Thelocation is great. If ur not from Spokane, take it from a local. Thishotel is on our main North South thoroughfare (we have no n/sfreeway),is a mile or two from downtown which is kinda a long walk butthe bus is right there and walking distance to the N.town mall & abulk or two from walgreens. Awesome Italian rest across the street hbreakfast house next door. Stayed here before the name change (formerlyHoward Johnson) rooms were small but clean with everything needed.
Review 10:Tried to call instead of booking on line as this was an emergent same day reservation, should have known when no one answered the phone that something was wrong. My teen son and 2 teammates got to address and place is run down, fenced off and in a scary neighborhood. It is ridiculous that this listing is still posted by your company!!
Review 11:This hotel is no longer open! Boarded shut and fenced off. No wonder it was the only hotel on Spokane w any rooms available,
Review 12:Halls stunk!! Dirty carpets. Rough blanket window didn't lock. TV lousy. Electrical outlet wouldn't take a cord. Top fell out and bottom felt like it could burn my phone. Worst smell through out like dope or skunk. Shower horrible and controlsee were backwards. Web site said pool was closed but it looked great
Review 13:Nothing
Review 14:The hotel was in need of repair. The toilet in our room ran so loudly we had to shut off the water to it. Breakfast was anemic and the 2% milk was sour. A week before we stayed at a much nicer hotel in Spokane for the same price.
Review 15:Not much.
Review 16:Ice machine broken Barking dog in a guest room (not mgmt. fault) Faint smell from former smoking Minor cosmetic issues in room and hallway (walls, carpeting)
Review 17:Room away from noisy road side was very quiet. Efficient unobtrusive AC Attractive well-supplied breakfast area. Several good restaurants within walking distance.
Review 18:The public bus goes right in front of the hitel and goes right past the convention center. Saved a lot of money over renting a car. There were good restaurants nearby within walking distance or direct route of the bus line.
Review 19:Service suck like front desk woman had no respect to the Clint they also means no greetings waiting for my Room took almost 15 to 30mints.......
Review 20:Nice and quite clean inside ......
Review 21:Our room smelled, carpet was dirty, bathroom door was broke anddidn't close. Bathroom needs to be up to be updated. Maybe the whole room itself could be updated. We stayed at another Howard Johnson in Yakima and this one doesn't compare to that one.
Review 22:Staff were friendly.
Review 23:The TV blew up and caught on fire Sunday AM while watching. Had to disconnect and extinguish the fire. Not very relaxating. Pool seemed always closed and not opened when indicated. Shower ran with Luke warm to cold. Staff stated there was no problem with the temperature,set at the proper temp so we would not burn ourselves.
Review 24:Location and price. The room was nice and the quiet.
Review 25:My card was charged a total of $375 in three different charges that 3 days later have not been removed after calls to the hotel and also to my bank not very impressed when the room was supposed to be $109
Review 26:No drinking water available. No hot water for showers. Bed and pillows were uncomfortable. Difficult to breathe in the room due to heavy air freshener.
Review 27:It has been many years since any updating, so things a very tired looking. Our room was not cleaned the next day. The break fast was very sad, crumbling quarter sliced muffins, luke warm coffee, we did not eat there. The common area smelled bad. The wall s are very thin, so good luck if you have anyone in the adjoining rooms.
Review 28:Location is god
Review 29:The AC system wasn't exactly the best I've used before. I choose a room facing Division Street which I forgot could be very busy often.
Review 30:The staff was friendly and accommodating. I also enjoyed the pool and thought the room was clean and fresh.
Review 31:Water never got hot--just lukewarm. Told staff and he said he'd check water heater, but it never got better. DELUXE breakfast means more than cereal and toast & muffins.
Review 32:Shower tepid to cool. Bananas served for breakfast were bad. Rooms were cool even though it was in the mid thirties in Spokane. Cleaning staff removed my newspapers without asking. Desk staff could care less about guests.
Review 33:Room was not overly spacious but adequate. Breakfast was minimal but could hold someone over if they need to leave early.
Review 34:Located with easy access to main highways and close to downtown. We needed to bring our small dog at the last moment and they were very accommodating. The room was very clean.
Review 35:The pool was closed
Review 36:I liked everything about the Inn. It was the first time that we'd stayed at a Howard Johnson and would do so again. It was also right across the street from one of our favourite restaurants - House of India
Review 37:In clean, sheet rock in celing all cracking and broken. No hot water at 11 pm. Had to change rooms at that point. Next room bath tub had rust in bottom. Stair way and hall ways smelled like pee very over whelming of smell.
Review 38:Elder bugs in our room, pool was cold and the overall cleanliness left a lot to desire. Cleaning staff had only one or 2 ladies that knew how to clean while others were engrossed playing with their cell phone. The Inn needs many repairs / renovations but could still maintain expected standards by having it properly cleaned.
Review 39:The staff was friendly and accommodating in trying to resolve our problems. Breakfast was nice and had a good variety. The price was reasonable and the location was close to beautiful Corbin Park.
Review 40:We were in the area for medical reasons, after booking and leaving 2 other hotels...due to the uncleanliness, my card had reached it's limit...Howard Johnson did what was in their power to make it possible for us to have a safe place to stay...!! Thank You
Review 41:I was frustrated to find my room was not overly clean, and rather that it had a somewhat musty smell, that the carpets were sticky in several places, and that the A/C made a very loud noise if we turned it on. Also, the included breakfast was merely dry cereal, toast, apples, or bananas. It suited our immediate needs, but was not somewhere I would choose to stay at again.
Review 42:I like the rate and the fact that it is an inside hallway, so it was more secure than a motel. The lobby appeared clean and attractive, and the staff I spoke with were friendly, even though largely unable to assist with my specific concerns.
Review 43:No hot water. Could have happened to anyone, but it had been out forseveral days. You could have told me in time to make other arrangements.Big deal breakfast except that the main dish (waffles) was availableonly on Saturday or Sunday . You really need to know why I'm notcoming back?
Review 44:The room was dirty and smelled bad despite the heavy use of Febreeze. The linens were stained and had holes. The bathroom was so bad that we couldn't bathe the children.
Review 45:The pool was out of service,some of the vending machines were were out of service and the key cards were not working. the staff had to let every guest in the hotel into their rooms every time.
Review 46:Staff are very friendly and helpful. The rooms are nice and clean. The beds are great and the room amenities are good.
Review 47:Building smelled of marijuana, rooms were filthy, a/c didn't work, Manager was unprofessional and verbally attacking. Treated me like a pest when i complained of conditions even after offered to fix and returned was still not fixed.
Review 48:One clerk was polite
Review 49:Checkin took 1/2hr due to computer problems. Swimming pool and hot tub closed. No hot water during our stay, we were not advised on check in. Deluxe breakfast advertised only cereal, toast provided. Air conditioner filters dirt. Building is old and requires tender loving care and upgrade.
Review 50:Location was good for our purposes
Review 51:Had to ask for a hair dryer, mattress was old and springy, hot water went out so couldn't take a shower, air conditioner at highest setting did not keep room cool.
Review 52:Location and staff
Review 53:Pool had been broken for many weeks. No wifi in room or lobby. Both no-pet rooms we got smelled strongly of pets. Air conditioners were old and loud. Boys' room didn't have a screen on the second floor window. Hard beds. Dirty carpet. Old TVs. Mold in both bathrooms. No waffles during the week. Had to ask at checkin desk for yogurt. Other breakfast items were pitiful. Ice machine flooded hallway. Staff at night was snarky.
Review 54:Location
Review 55:The doorbell into the lobby was my first value this was going to be interesting. The night time desk clerk was asking us if we had pets (5 times)? No... My friend had a purse.. What kind of pets could fit in a purse? EVERY soda machine ate out money.... Breakfast was free to those who got up with the birds... My reservation information was grossly mishandled until we asked to cancel the last portion of our stay. If your on a tight budget and don't mind a tight budget room & can avoid the staff I would suggest this place but never recommend it.
Review 56:Not much half the employees were hospitable. Location was good in proximity to where I was going.
Review 57:The air conditioner in our room did not work, it was very old. We were immediately given a different room with an updated, working air conditioner. So our only complaint was rapidly remedied.
Review 58:Convenient location, great staff, free parking, adequate bed and pillows, iron and ironing board and hair dryer in the room.
Review 59:The location was ok, busy street, not best part of town. The policy that to pay cash required a $150 deposit is absurd! I had to use my credit card when we wanted to play cash. The receptionist was not pleasant and we had to wait quite a while to check in because no one was manning the front desk The pool was "broken" and not accessable. We will not be staying there again.
Review 60:The room was clean and acceptable.

Review 103:Terrible breakfast. Pool closed. No elevator. Lots of smokers. Smelled like urine on stairwell outside.
Review 104:Staff was amazing!
Review 105:There was no continental breakfast visible to me, the bed felt like a rock, pillows the same. I asked for a non smoking room but I could smell it, even in the pillows. I asked for new pillows, very uncomfortable. People would be smoking by the exit door, so I smelled it every moment I spent there. Very unhappy customer!
Review 106:Indoor pool was one reason we chose this hotel. It was out of service. Rise & dine breakfast had eliminated waffles except for weekends. No skim milk.
Review 107:Comfortable bed and room
Review 108:Room was not in a condition I thought that could have some repairs or updated. Wall plug was loose by bed, just a little seedy
Review 109:They accommodated us when ask for room without climbing stairs
Review 110:We booked rooms at the HJ in Spokane because we knew there was a swimming pool for our grandkids. But the pool was not functioning the whole time we were there. It was a big disappointment for the kids.
Review 111:It was quiet and clean.
Review 112:I had reserved a room ahead and when I arrived the heater was shut off in the room. It was very cold out and I feel they should be on ...especially when they know you are arriving. The pool was also closed. (cost too much to heat?) There were stains on a chair that should have been cleaned.
Review 113:Breakfast bar was well maintained, Night staff offered me a heater because they knew the rooms were cold (from other complaints).
Review 114:The breakfast is rather sparse. The hot water ran out or was tepid during showering. Additional capacity is needed.
Review 115:The night clerk bent over backwards to straighten out a Booking.com error. We thank her for this. The motel has a pool.
Review 116:Found 8-10 bed bugs in the morning, collected them in a cup, andpresented them to the front desk clerk who said the manager would callus and probably discount or comp the room. No one called and we werecharged for the room. The hallways were stifling hot and the room was sowarm we turned on the air conditioner and then left the hotel and founda restaurant to sit in while the room cooled down.
Review 117:Affordable, continental breakfast, clean.
Review 118:Room was comfortable, clean and surprisingly quiet for it's location. I had recently had surgery and was thrilled to find a recliner in the room!!
Review 119:They didn't have my reservation. The room only had single panewindows so the room was drafty and you heard the noisy, busy streettraffic all night long. They charge you for a safe even though you mightnot use it.
Review 120:Pet friendly
Review 121:The room was ok.
