    Bland rooms
    Jennifer S.

    4 stars are for the front desk. The woman who helped check us in was very nice. Nice location, quiet. Wish the hot tub was working. Needs to be updated, reminds me of a nice retirement community with the aesthetics. Bedding definitely needs to be upgraded. Top blankets are snagged and old looking. All bedding is really flat and old. This property could be 5 stars with a room face lift.

    Amazing staff. Quiet, clean and safe. Central to restaurants and shopping. I stay there regularly for work and they are so welcoming. They also decorate like crazy on holidays!

    Delicious burrito breakfast plus they have many more varieties

    Very nice property the management was very accommodating getting us all set up in the room we were looking for the breakfast was outstanding with lots of options including things we have never seen before I'll post a couple of pictures but overall the experience was good nice friendly front desk staff the pool area is outstanding and it looks like the new owners have really taken a lot of pride in the property and fixed it up real nice. Thanks limomike

    The entrance!

    ***** please note how OLD many of the one star reviews are ! It is under new ownership. Also, look at ALL the 5 star reviews. The old ones are pulling the average down.***** I honestly don't know where to start! I've have stayed at several Best Westerns before and some are just ok... but this was BY FAR the best one I have stayed at and one of the best places I've ever stayed. First, let me say that it was especially nice for me as I love Christmas and we stayed just after New Years so please see my photos of their glorious decorations... But I am sure this is outstanding at all times of the year as they just get everything right and clearly spend a lot of what could be profit by making the property a show place. Let me list some of the small details that really added to the experience. First, the staff is SO friendly and helpful. The maid had left a darling bunny folded from a wash cloth and a note telling her name and inviting use to feel free to let them know if we needed anything. The TV remote was in a little sleeve so you'd know it was cleaned.The room was beautiful and the beds very comfortable and the TV was easy to use. There is a beautiful laundry area for guests that seems like a fancy home not just a storage room with a washer and dryer. Out in the lobby, like many hotels, there was a small "store" area. This is usually just aspirin, tooth brushes & a few candies.... But they had a HUGE selection of fabulous microwave meals, fancy bakery desserts, all kinds of beverages. Stuff I didn't even KNOW I wanted! LoL. But the REAL high point was the incredible breakfast. It was like going to a banquet! 3 giant warming dishes full of eggs,sausage, breakfast potatoes, as well as almost "brunch" type of items like enchiladas and biscuits and gravy. And again with perfect small touches: they had the waffles as they do at a lot of places but they ALSO had it in a cinnamon roll flavor. The butter was room temperature, they had gluten free bread, every kind of bagel & pastry, oatmeal ,cereal and this very deluxe machine for toasting(not a typical 2 slot toaster), the coffee was excellent with choice of flavored creamers. It is all beautifully presented right in the lobby near the fireplace and cozy couches with the desk clerk there if you have any questions. Then you can go into the charming dining room, a long rectangular room with a TV at one end , far enough away so it's quiet at the other end if you prefer the selection of news papers and magazines . It was especially magical to be here at the holidays but I can't wait to go back again. Not far from Snohomish antiquities or perfect when the fair's in town! With all the amenities, it's a great value too.

    My room infested bed bugs, left right after getting evidence.

The grounds are incredibly pretty and peaceful--watching the hosts tend to the gardens and feed the chickens was the perfect way to unwind after a busy day. My room was a total restful oasis, and the sleep was amazing. Plus, the area feels incredibly safe and secure, so there was zero worry about my car. The perfect blend of convenience and country charm!"

    Please do not go to this place! It is nothing like advertised. The hosts were the rudest I've ever…read moreencountered, and the sheets were absolutely filthy. We were so uncomfortable that we decided not to stay, even though it meant driving 2 hours back home, returning the next day for an event, and driving another 2 hours again. We arrived 30 minutes before check-in because it was our first time in town, and we wanted to ensure everything went smoothly. As soon as I walked in, I honestly thought I was at the wrong place. The owner greeted me with a curt "Can I help you?"--as if she wasn't expecting us. I had to ask if I was in the right place, and she just shrugged. She immediately complained that we were early, asking, "Who are you?" and "Have you paid for the pet fee?"--all in a passive-aggressive tone. She told my husband to park "over there, by the pool," but her directions were so unclear that after asking three times, he parked where he thought she meant--only for her to snap that it was her husband's spot. When we saw our room, we were shocked to learn we had to share a bathroom with another guest--something not mentioned in the listing. Our only private area was a tiny bedroom. On top of that, we were hit with endless rules: We could only let our dog outside when her dogs weren't there, using a confusing "light signal" system. Shoes had to be removed at all times. Our dog's food and water had to stay outside. We had to be mindful of her 2-year-old child. The woman we were sharing the bathroom with was apparently afraid of dogs--why stay in a so-called "pet-friendly" place then? To make matters worse, the property is right next to a busy road with no sidewalk--unsafe and stressful for walking a dog. Finally, the bed was disgusting: the sheets were covered in pet hair, and we even found an ear pain medicine packet under the covers--proof they hadn't been washed. That was the last straw. We packed up and left. When I told the owner we weren't staying, she coldly replied, "OK, cool!" When I mentioned the dirty sheets, she just repeated that it was "weird" because they pay someone to clean, without apologizing or offering to change them. I also told her she should disclose the shared bathroom, and she dismissed me with, "That's a B&B thing"--which is false. After reading reviews, I noticed she often claims not to "recognize" guests who leave bad reviews but has no trouble remembering all the 5-star reviewers. Honestly, I don't know how this place gets any good ratings. Believe me--do NOT stay here.

    I will start by saying the hotel location was very convenient for our needs…read more We live 45min away but wanted to spend time with family in Monroe for the 4th of July. The Hotel staff were helpful and friendly and the pool was great. Unfortunately the smell in the Hotel is very strong. The lobby and halls smell of heavy cleaning products and when we got to our room it was even stronger. There was also an underlying unpleasant smell of possibly smoke even though it was a non smoking room. The overall appearance of the hotel and rooms is very dated. I would hope a remodel is in the near future. The breakfast in the morning was wonderful. Many delicious options. We will use them again next year but hope some of the smell issues get worked out.

It would be nice if they have safes in the rooms. Only negatives with room was bathtub after shower seemed to not have all water drain and a little would stand there, found some outlets near the bed that did not work and walls seemed a little thin. I heard mumbles from neighbor in the morning and housekeeping through the wall. Pool could have been a little warmer but nice and cool for summertime. Hot tub was perfect temperature. Breakfast was OK but not fantastic but since it was included in the rate, it was filling. The coffee in the room was better than the coffee at breakfast. Staff was friendly.

    I have to say that the previous YELP complaints I read about cigarette stank, weed aroma,…read morehole-ridden towels AND the sounds from the number of trains passing thru are the LEAST of the Fairground Inn's problems! On the night of the Bomb Cyclone 2024, we thought we could make the drive to Lake Wenatchee from the SeaTac. Airport but traffic was horrible and the inclement weather was not permitting! According to the Washington Department of Transportation webcam, our future drive thru Steven's Pass was a complete white out with 80 mph winds. While driving, we could hear the wind howling and discovered that a few trees were knocked over, we ran over two of them with our Dodge RAM. It was also getting dark ....so it was in our best interest to turn around or keep going and possibly get stranded or DIE. We ended up turning around in Skykomish and drove to Monroe. We stayed in the ONLY room available in the nastiest hotel I've ever stayed in! Since all rooms were booked nearby and we were brain dead, this was our only option. The weather was only getting worse and we were exhausted, it was in our best interest to STOP driving! We stayed upstairs in room 202. Upon entering, my eyes immediately started watering, our room had the most putrid overwhelming smell. It was HORRIBLE! It literally smelled like baby diarrhea combined with the most unbearable floral potpourri. Both smells were equally bad. Aside from this, the carpet was super stained, the fire alarm was ripped out of the ceiling and the underside of the mattress was covered in what was once a puddle of blood and the bathroom door had holes where it was punched and kicked thru. In fact, even our front door looked like it had been kicked in at some point from the repair work done around the door knob. For all we know, that weird pungent diarrhea smell was the smell of the substantial amount of blood on the underside of our mattress (which I should also mention is a major BIOHAZARD that must break a number of health code violations). It's also possible that the gross floral smell x 10000 was obviously an attempt to cover up that smell. Every now and then my bf would start coughing and gagging bc the room smelled so gnarly. I literally could not even breathe thru my nose after an hour (which was a GOOD thing!) bc the potpourri smell was super toxic and full of chemicals! Also, we were awakened at 3am since our dog stood up and growled bc someone was looming in front of our door for 2-4 minutes! Pretty sure the fire alarm was ripped out from meth smoking. When my bf went to return our room key in the morning, he mentioned everyone in the joint looked like a character that hung out in the Crystal Palace in Breaking Bad. He said that a few of them were slamming coffee and hoarding bagels from the continental breakfast. Honestly, that was also not that big of a deal compared to the horror scene that was our mattress and the STANK of our room. I felt like our entire experience could have been a segment from the Hotel Season of American Horror Story. Unfortunately, I am not exaggerating ANYTHING.

There was no one there to greet us and looked like that they were still getting the dining room ready. The hostess did not come out until five minutes before seating time. I was kind of disappointed since this was supposed to be a special Easter brunch, but there was nothing to indicate that this was for Easter other than a few of the desserts. No Easter bunny, there are a couple Easter egg decorations on every table, but that was about it. Still, the ambience was good, a fancy brunch at a fancy hotel. The wait staff provided excellent service. The food was provided in a pretty good spread. The prime rib and the fresh oysters were probably the standout of the food. I don't know why they only have one person with two tiny hot plates to man the made to order station there for everyone. The family did like the desserts, they were very cute. My wife thought that they were too sweet, but that just means I like them a lot. All in all, it was a good brunch to experience once for a special occasion. No huge complaints here.

Brookside is the cheapest motel in Monroe at about $300.00 per week. I stayed there for about two months. A good portion of the residents had been there for some time and most all of them were friendly. The room I stayed in was facing the main roadway which was Route 2 and it was noisy from continual traffic. It took a little getting used too. The bathroom was super small and the lighting was not that good. I had to bring in a clip-on light in order to see while I was shaving. The TV was old and the programing was terrible. Internet access was bad so I had to use my hotspot on my iPhone to get internet access on my laptop. I spoke to the manager about it several times but he was unable to do anything about it. I believe it was because the room out front was not close enough to the router. Either way the internet service was poor. If your going to stay here bring your own pillows. The pillows were old and not that good. Also the bedding is not that good. To stay warm I had to use my sleeping bag as a comforter. Please don't get me wrong, you get what you pay for. One good thing is there is a washer/dryer on the premise, coin operated. The best thing about Brookside was the manager and the price. It's possible that some of the units in the middle or back may have been nicer or larger. The gas station next door has good coffee and plenty of convenience food. The motel is located close to everything in Monroe so getting around is easy. While there were drawbacks, I would stay there again.

The tree houses are so quaint and relaxing. The property is 420 friendly, so it was awesome to be able to smoke in the tree house, by the fire pit, even in the lounge while getting our snacks/drinks from the fridge. This space feels very cozy and more community-oriented than something like a hotel or air BnB. Pretty close to town, so easy to access anything you might need within a 10-15min drive.

Highly recommend to people who are 420 enthusiasts, chill/relaxed mindset, looking for a quiet and calm stay, and love the outdoors. Not a good place if you're looking for luxury and a high-end boutique stay.
