Skagit Valley Inn And Convention Center offers a variety of experiences for guests. Some visitors appreciate the location and the surrounding area, noting that it can serve as a good stop for future destinations, with nearby laundromats and affordable shopping options. One guest mentioned that the staff was friendly and prompt, and appreciated the gift bag received at check-in, which is uncommon in many hotels. The rooms have been described as needing some work, with ongoing remodeling efforts evident. Despite some maintenance issues like a slow-draining shower and a fridge that freezes everything, guests who experienced stays generally found the rooms spacious and clean, especially when traveling with pets. A guest traveling with a dog praised the large, clean room that didn’t smell like pets and highlighted the reasonable price and friendly staff. However, the property has faced criticism. Some reviews mention unpleasant odors, mold around the bath, and outdated furnishings. Facilities such as a swimming pool, fitness center, hot tub, or sauna are not available, contrary to expectations set by booking photos, and the hotel has lost its Best Western Plus status. Guests reported concerns about safety and noise, particularly on the second floor, where there were reports of loud disturbances, weed smell, and unruly guests, which impacted sleep and comfort. Additionally, some guests encountered rude or unhelpful behavior from other guests or staff, and issues like broken toilets and slow maintenance response were noted. Despite these challenges, the hotel remains a convenient and pet-friendly option for travelers seeking affordability and a central location. Visitors recommend managing expectations regarding amenities and cleanliness but acknowledge that the staff’s friendliness and the room size can make for a decent stay.
Room was dirty, stains and dust everywhere. It felt unclean to be in, let alone sleep the night. Staff was okay. Could hear children from a few rooms; they were very noisy and made my experience even worse than it already was.

Great staff and nice clean rooms. But as others have noted this place is in a “transition” period and mainly looks old and busted. Better options are around.

Room was clean. Staff are welcoming. Overall property is good. Some noise from road. Breakfast was incredible!
