Super 8 Lacey/Olympia Area

If I could give this place 0 stars I would. Dingy gross rooms. Incredibly rude staff and watched some cracked out couple trying to break into someone’s car as I waited in the parking lot to check in. I’m pretty sure roaches wouldn’t go here to die

Old, somewhat clean but the shower in my room did’t turn on at all. Absolutely would never recommend this place.

We stayed 10 minutes. Most of that was spent checking in. We had a non-​smoking room that smelled like smoke. Overall the hotel is just old and honestly a total dive. Super 8 hotels are either a hit or a miss and this is a total miss! We asked for our money back and went to a different hotel.

Stinky hallway, loud because its next to freeway exit. Would leave if it was just me. Hope they cleaned up the legionaries disease problem! Yuck

Staff wasnt very friendly, no pool towels, black mold in my room, hair in my shower, pool wasnt cleaned… definitely not worth 80 $ needs upgrades and cleaning staff

Nice place; clean, spacious, and situated in a decent neighborhood.
The free breakfast sucks so they lose a star for that, but I’d stay there again.

Local health department shut them down for having legionnaire disease July 2015. Refused to refund my money.

Be aware, safety concerns. 3 confirmed cases of Legionnaires disease. Do not stay here until health officials have deemed this place clean. A loved one nearly died. You don’t want to go through what we just went through.

Customer service was really good. After complaining our original room smelled if cigarette smoke in a non smoking room they switched us to a different room which still had a funky sent to it but at least it wasn’t cigarette smell. Lighting in the rooms could be better. Pool is really nice and so it hot tub. Continental breakfast is ok but not great. Stains were on the bathroom floor and carpet in the room as well as the chairs which is kinda gross.

If I could give this ½ a star I would.
After confirming our reservation my wife and I made our way to a room on the first floor close to the pool. As soon as we opened the door a stench that could only be described as a mixture of pee, smoke, chlorine and must, suffocated us. The room was tiny, dark and dungeon like. Aside from the horrible smell, the TV was a big box TV, which I think may date back to 1990, and the bed covers felt like sand paper.
We were literally in there for no more then 10 minutes and my wife started itching. It was then we decided that we could not stay. We went to the front desk and explained that the smell was overwhelming and that we would like to cancel our stay.
The women at the front desk was nice but also acted as if she was unaware of the problem at first. The manager then suggested that the smell might be coming from the harsh cleaners they used on it the night before, which was clearly not accurate. She humored me and went into the room to smell it. At first she said she could not smell anything but then later after showing me two other rooms on the same floor admitted that all of the rooms in fact smelled bad and very musty and humid.
While my wife and I were there for about 10 min total, they would not refund our money for the first night. I had to call cheap hotels .com for them to give us a refund for the second evening.
Whatever you do. DO NOT GO HERE.

It’s stuck in the 1990s. The carpet is so old and retro and the TVs need some time to turn on. The furniture and beds are old a dusty. The curtains over the a/​c unit smelled like urine and so the room smelled weird. When I sat on the chair a big puff of dust came out. The shampoo and soap provided, however, made my skin and hair soft. But the bathroom floor was sticky so I wore my flip flops the whole time in the hotel. The free breakfast was small but, okay. The staff were elderly people though, I felt weird asking them for stuff.
It’s really a place for those truck driver people who just need a bed and shower for a stop over. The whole 2 nights there made me envy the people next door at the quality in… But at least there was a 24 hour Denny’s a couple of step out the door.,
Overall., if you like comfort and cleanliness. don’t come here… Unless you’re on a really tight budget like I was… Then it’s… Okay…

I stayed at the Super 8 motel in Lacey in April 2014. The first room I had was Super 8 quality. The TV went out. The staff was very accommodating and let me change rooms. Next night (1am) the smoke detector in my room, 230, started chirping indicating a low battery. The grave shift desk clerk said I could disable the smoke alarm or change rooms. I ended up getting the battery and replacing it myself.
Why did the battery go bad? It’s pretty clear to me they don’t change them until they go bad. Disable the smoke alarm? If that isn’t illegal it ought to be. What if I had messed up the battery installation? I’m pretty sure they haven’t checked. So don’t stay in room 230.
Filthy floors. My feet stuck to the bathroom. Outlets that don’t work. Feeble wifi.
I’ve stayed in older motels that were in good shape because management cared enough to do the little things. This is one to avoid.
.

I just moved back to WA, and I was in a seriously tight budget. I decided to use Super 8 because it was the cheapest cost. The minute I entered the motel, I was immediately disappointed. I’m disabled, and I was carrying multiple bags on me, plus handling a service animal. I was pretty stressed out.
The entrance“looks“nice, but it is incredibly small. They have a tv in the entrance, but it has no volume, a pool that probably nobody uses, thin walls, no automatic door entrance, no elevator, has a lift, but can’t access it, small rooms, basic cable with not many channels to watch, cannabis is not permitted in the motel, and it’s right near the freeway, which makes sleeping impossible because of the noise. The only plus side is that the staff is nice, but don’t think they’re very knowledgeable.
I already cancelled the nights and cost refunded. I understand as to why there’s almost nobody at Super 8. I’m going back to La Quinta, it’s only about $ 4 more expensive.

I was waiting for my house to be ready and going on 12 days of staying in Army-​post lodging. I needed to find a cheaper place to stay so went with Super 8 to stay for 3 nights.
Checked into our first room, located on the second floor and there were no elevators. Had to make quite a few trips. Used the bathroom during these trips and noticed that the toilet was not working. I called the front desk and they sent a housekeeping maid over to plunge the toilet. I told her I had only peed in the toilet so I didn’t think it needed to be plunged. She told me that the toilet worked, but you just had to hold the flusher down for quite a while before the toilet flushed. Said she would put a maintenance request in but wasn’t sure when maintenance would be in again (this was a Friday afternoon). Didn’t think too much about it and left to pick my kids up from school and then to do some errands. Fast-​forward to the evening and one of my kids uses the bathroom and the same thing happens even when we hold the flusher. I call the front desk and verify that a maintenance request is put in and she says it is, but that maintenance probably won’t be back until Monday. She preceeds to tell me that I have to hold the flusher down. I told her I was doing that and it is still not working. I ask her to come and show me and she comes up to my room and it does not work for her either.
We switch rooms to our second room. About 10p, my kids want to watch tv. Turn on the tv and after about 5 minutes the screen turns pink. You can still hear the tv, but not see anything except a pink screen. Turn the tv off and then back on – exact thing happens about 6 minutes later. We do this a few more times. Since it is late, I decide to talk to the front desk in the morning. I told the front desk our issue and ask if we can get a new tv. Front desk says they cannot switch out tvs, but can switch our room.
We switch rooms to our third room. After moving all of our stuff, I pull off the bedspreads and throw them in the corner. On one of the beds is a stain about the size of a quarter that looks like sh*t. Then I find another one of those stains another place on the bed. I go down to the front desk and tell them about it and ask for another set of sheets. The lady comes with a new pair of sheets and changes the bed for me. Later that day, we find 2 used breath mints under the bed and a dirty washcloth hanging in the shower. I go to the front desk again and ask about a credit and the lady says she can only authorize $ 10 but I can talk to the manager on Monday.
Monday morning comes and I ask for the manager and am told he may not be in that day at all. I ask if I should call corporate about this and another lady appears from the office and says no, she can handle my problem. Not sure who this lady was but I explained all of the issues and she gave me 1 night free. I was fine with that. Will never stay here again. I’ve stayed at other Super 8s before but never experienced this at a hotel.
Some may ask why I stayed after all of these problems? I didn’t feel like switching hotels! My kids and I had been living in a hotel for close to 15 days at this point and our house was *this close* to being ready. When family comes to visit me, I would not recommend this hotel.

Absolutely agree with Ryan, this place is a pile of garbage. I’ve stayed at WAY better Super 8’s — hell, I’ve stayed at much nicer Motel 6’s. Paper-​thin walls, worn, stretched, lumpy carpet, a chair that i wouldn’t let my worst enemy sit in, no closet, a running toilet, a loud, rattling fan in the bathroom and the wall heater/​cooling unit sounded like an old swamp cooler. The one and only bright spot is the motel-​adjacent Denny’s (who doesn’t like Denny’s!?). Also, they charged us a $ 100 cash deposit for ONE night in a $ 50 room! Wtf?! Oh, the grand finale was the tissue holder trim piece that fell off when I grabbed a tissue. I will definitely pass this dump up next time I’m driving through…

Dear god this place was a SHIT HOLE. I figured it wouldn’t be THAT bad since the previous reviews gave it 3 stars… I guess they haven’t CLEANED the place since that review 2 years ago.
*The place was DIRTY — walls had years worth of filth on them
*The floors were sticky, my feet felt infected with disease when I walked on them
*The beds were HARD and had a dent in the middle
*The pillows were HARD and unusable
I even woke up early just to get out of this place. Terrible. I wish I could give them 0-​stars and get my money back!!!
And on top of this… it took FOREVER to check in because the idiot behind the counter didn’t know what the hell he was doing. He couldn’t find the reservation and took about 25 minutes to check us in. Ridiculous.

For a nights stay this Super 8 wasn’t too shabby. We didn’t plan on staying the night in WA, but I had a few to many drinks at a memorial and we didn’t feel like going all the way back. It was around $ 50 or $ 60 for the stay I believe… Room was NOT huge, standard Super 8 motel room. The bathroom shower was better than you average super 8. The shower was large and spacious with a nice adjustable shower head that… yes…actually worked. They did have cable and we were able to watch the Huskies and Beavers play. GO DUCKS! Anyway… They have safes in the rooms for any valuables you may have when you leave. Makes a great toy for a 2 year old by the way.
They have a «cute» continental breakfast. The milk was great… Danishes were just like the ones you would get at AM/​PM. Juice was the standard concentrate stuff… Great for my hangover though.
I put down about a fifth of whisky that night and had what you could call… drunken munchies. My beautiful wife was passed out…*cough* excuse me… sleeping I meant, and I had to hit up Denny’s which was my view from my window. I really didn’t wanna, but I did. That’s for another review though… Point being, Denny’s is 50 yards from the motel as is 2 different gas stations. A shell and Circle K I believe. Its pretty close to I-​5 too.
And we were actually louder than your normal group. My buddy and I were having some drinks and were laughing and having a good time. Never once got a call saying to quiet down. Which was cool…
If I had to crash here again for a night, I could do it

Clean rooms. Clean Bath. Clean Floors. Good Rooms. Average desk staff, but better than most. Don’t expect to watch any TV as it is always ‘temporarily down, and the tech will be in on Tuesday to fix it’. Let me know when I can watch TV and relax when on a work trip. Otherwise I will go elsewhere.
