Great stay
This was the second time staying at the Ruby Ridge. Even though it was a busy weekend, with the Gonzaga students moving in, the service was great. The rooms were quiet and there was enough parking.

Highly recommended
Staff was amazing from. Front desk, cleaning ladies, Osprey restaurant crew, shuttle driver, you name it.....everyone was great. The entire grounds of the hotel were amazing as well. Pool area was great and felt more like we were at a resort than downtown Spokane. Definitely will be staying again.

Beautiful grounds, comfortable room, looks like a place where large groups and conferences gather. Stay was quiet, though. I wonder if it gets quite noisy at times given the large groups.
