This was nice for a little one night stay! The staff were very friendly and accommodating. They also did our laundry for us which was so kind! Really appreciate that as a PCT hiker. Would recommend for anyone stopping in Packwood for a nero or zero!

We stayed here for two days. The property is a bit dated, and you get what you pay for — we booked last minute when few other options were available. That said, the staff were very helpful and friendly, which made the stay more comfortable. The surrounding area has some overgrown vegetation, but the location is a plus — close to the city center and near a few dining spots, though options are somewhat limited.

2 couples traveling together . Had 2 rooms, one room had extremely short stool and vanity. The knob for our shower keep coming off and the shower head has been replaced and not painted around. The beds were comfortable and a good pizza place next door

We had a great stay at Packwood Inn and really loved the location—it’s conveniently close to a grocery store. Our room had 2 queen beds and a kitchen, which was perfect for our trip. Having the kitchen was a huge plus since we were able to cook our own meals and prep food for our hike to Mount Rainier. The only downsides were that the kitchen faucet water pressure was quite weak and the washroom had a bit of a strange smell. Other than that, everything else worked well for us. Overall, I’d recommend this place if you’re looking for a budget-friendly stay with the bonus of having a kitchen, especially if you’re planning a hiking trip to Mount Rainier.

Completely adequate; nice staff

The Packwood Inn was completely adequate for our purposes which was mainly a hot shower, soft clean bed, and our dog welcome. Room 18's shower faucet needs some help. We were warned the TV didn't work which suits us. Though fully occupied it was quiet. Special treat; Elk came to visit the back lot.

Stayed here the night before a race, and having a pizza place next door is a huge bonus. The room was lack luster, the small tv didnt work, and there was a little drip from the bathroom sink. The grounds look a little unkept. Not terrible experience, but also do not think it was worth what i paid.

Great stay

Great location and close to Mt Rainier. Not a fancy hotel by any means - you get what you pay for. But the pool was nice, the room was clean, and the bathroom was clean. Would definitely stay here again if in the area and wanting a nice stay that's easier on the wallet than other local hotels.
