For the most part everyone at the desk was pleasant. Robert is always amazing! We are waiting for our house to be ready and have been staying for multiple weeks and have only encountered minor issues. If you have a choice between Fife and Tacoma, make sure you choose Tacoma. Rooms are updated and way less transient activity.

I want my money back horrible place
Horrible place to stay disgusting inside and out. Lots of drug addicts running around 24/7. Dont leave anything in your vehicle youll lose it. Dirty used syrunges and condoms in parking lot people smoking cravk pipes in the open on stairs that arent staying in a room. Cockroaches in rooms. Front desk people horribly rude. Thisnplace should get new managent or close.

Had some bang on our door at 2am the checked our car doors to see if they were locked before seeing he was being watched. Then he came to the window and knocked again before leaving. Feel bad for the staff having to deal with issues that may arise there.
