We were stuck in Ellensburg due to weather related pass closures. It was so pleasant to find this…read morecharming downtown hotel in lieu of the corporate chain hotels by the freeway. Parking is a bit of a hassle and we ended up paying the $10 for hotel,parking in a lot around the corner. It was worth it as we could walk to restaurants within blocks of the hotel. As for the room itself, it was moderately sized but we had room for all our gear without tripping over anything. The king sized bed was comfortable with 5 pillows provided (the norm seems to be 4 nowadays). The room was very quiet but the bathroom has a sliding barn door which unfortunately doesn't muffle bathroom noises which should be private. Decor is soothing warm neutrals with a small sofa and a desk chair provided for seating. There is a small frig but no microwave. Keurig is provided for in room coffee but I would recommend going down to the lobby where fresh brewed coffee seems to be provided. 22/7. We did not check out the rooftop garden due to the weather. Would've enjoyed a drink in the cozy bar adjacent to the lobby but it doesn't seem to be open yet. I would definitely stay here again should I have the need to overnight in Ellensburg.

I'm getting to the age where even if I CAN make a 10-12 hour drive in a day, I don't have to and…read moredon't want to. So last week, on my way to Seattle I decided to stay the night in beautiful Ellensburg, WA (home to Central Washington University). Since it was just for a couple nights, I decided to get something downtown so I could walk around. I found Hotel Windrow online, booked the room and what a fantastic surprise. This boutique hotel is indeed RIGHT downtown. It's stylish, easy to find, obviously in a great location, and the property includes a hip little lobby bar a space called 'Top of the Berg' which is a rooftop area with fire pits, etc. very cosmopolitan. The rooms were lovely, very homey with a small couch, desk, large bathroom and comfortable bed. I walked two blocks to a fantastic Italian meal (more about that in another review) and overall, had a truly fantastic and easy night. A couple amenities to highlight include ample parking and electric charging spaces for electric cars or hybrids. I love finds like this, and plan on making at least one night stay over a regular occurrence now if I'm traveling on I-90. Recommended.

First stay here, on a weekend. Prices were modestly high (not a value play here)…read more Very clean, we had our doggies with us, so we were on ground floor. There is a pet-friendly area out the back, with ample doggie-doo-baggies. The free breakfast was a-ok - they had microwaved sausage and reconstituted egg some typical dried-up little pastries, various fresh fruit, a fridge with good yogurt and almond milk, good strong coffee and a nice waffle-making station that worked fantastic. The beds, very comfortable, and surprisingly good pillows. The room was quiet despite the hotel being sold out. TV, worked good, had HBO. AC/heat worked, a mini fridge and microwave in room rounded out the amenities. Outside, i noted a couple barbeques, and a fish cleaning station. We joined the Best Western guest club - and they've added a nice touch where you can elect not to have maid service and get extra points instead. So lets talk about the 'green' effort. Lots of signage advocating 'save the planet', leave towels on rack, etc. I did like that coffee cups and the breakfast plates were paper. BUT, the inroom paper cups were wrapped in plastic. Lots of single use plastic cups, horrifically wrapped again in plastic (in case something touches the plastic we've wrapped it in more plastic). In the dining room, a stack of single use plastic cups for the sole purpose of pouring waffle batter, one time (I went and grabbed a paper cup for this) Staff was always delightful and friendly.

Why three stars:…read moreI checked out at 3 PM Check out was 11 AM As I was leaving my room at check out I asked a room service lady cleaning next door if She could still clean my room. "Sure. Plenty of time." I got to the front desk. Nice lady with blue hair. Goes into a dissertation about the unusual check out time and that she would ask the Owner if I should receieve a refund all or part. ( I have not said a word much less ask for refund; I dont deserve one) So front desk blue hair makes a call allegedly to the Owner. She redirects her attention to me and says: 'No refund. Too late to clean the room.' NOT a very sophisticated liars. I don't like being lied to. Do you? I did not ask for a refund....but it was a good excuse to fabricate BS. Totally unnecessary. LOUSY TV programming. Very low budget.

This hotel, and this town, have seen better days, probably…read more There are some indications that the hotel is updating, piece by piece, to match other hotels under the IHG umbrella. And there are other indications, like the melodious chirping toilet, that this hotel is a bit in need of help. Also, it's not the greatest part of town - not their fault but there it is. Maybe no place is the greatest part of town anymore. I knew Ellensburg many years ago and it was very charming. There are still shops, still a rodeo, still a handsome college campus. The amount of delinquents charging around in their loud vehicles was offputting. I will go so far as to theorize that they were circling the hotel in the hopes of preying on the young girls staying there who were part of a softball team (or whichever group might be there at the time). I'm going to say all that and also say that we felt cozy and safe in our room, and we slept fine. Mothers, though, watch your daughters. Luckily (?), there was also a strong police presence in the evening. Staff was friendly, competent; the facilities were fine. One newish hotelish thing is that they took out the coffee machines from the rooms and asked guests to get their coffee in the lobby or ask staff to put the machine back. Did not love this.

Stranded in Ellensburg for the night, I waffled between camping ($30+, no power, during a wind…read moreadvisory night) and an adorable bnb that ended up being over $150. I ended up here in the middle at the Rainbow. Three stars equals A-ok. Room itself hasn't been updated in decades but the mattress and pillows seem nice/newer and it's clean. Towels are bright white and smell clean. The shower leaves something to be desired but they did go through pains to accommodate tall folks; the shower head is about 6.5 feet up! There is an alarm clock, tv with remote, and proper key on a vintage diamond shaped key chain. There is no wifi. Friendly office manger reminds me of Stan Lee. I chose this place because it was slightly closer to downtown than the clump of motels further to the south. The motel 6 that is actually in downtown has off putting reviews and this was probably about the same price. While $63 for a place to sleep on a weekday seemed steep at first, it turns out it's about the lowest going rate these days. In light of the reviews of other places, I'd say this is one of the better deals in town.

This hotel partnered with our travel team (baseball) to offer a special room rate for a tournament…read moreweekend. The special rate was better than what could be found if one searched for a room using other booking sites. We tried to check in early around 1-1:30 pm since there were games taking place later in the afternoon and continuing into the early evening, but were unable to do so. No one from our team was able to check in around this time. So, we all just came back and checked in at 6 pm, creating a big line and crowding the lobby as we waited our turns. In the end, though, it wasn't a huge deal. The hotel's layout is not modern and there are no elevators. There are (3) stairwells, with one on each end and one in the exact middle. Likewise, the rooms are a bit dated. Upon arrival, our room was sufficiently stocked with towels, washcloths, toilet paper, shampoo, body wash, and conditioner. Everything was clean and the furnishings were more modern/newer than the floor plan and decor of the hotel. While here, we used the pool and took advantage of the complimentary breakfast. The pool was a bit on the small side, but big enough for most activities. For the complimentary breakfast, we had our choice of biscuits and gravy, waffles, orange juice, milk, cold cereal, donut holes, packet oatmeal, yogurt, some fruits, and toast. It wasn't the best of complimentary breakfast offerings, but it was far from the worst. Overall, I'd say we had a good stay and comfortable night's sleep in tandem with the amenities offered.

Aside from really good amenities, this place is not worth staying at for any price…read more Although there is excellent ADA access with an entire floor accessible via a wheelchair ramp that has a gentile slope and a number of ADA accessible rooms, and the floors going into the rooms is even and easy to navigate. The pool was tolerably cold but the hot tub was comfortable. The whole place was very quiet, which is unusual for places with a centralized corridor. I cannot stress enough that having a very curious Autistic child makes the rooms a danger to their safety overall. We ended up having to have our son sleep in his wheelchair just to feel safe enough for him to be in the room without the risk of getting hurt. We had to unplug the phone immediately to put it up out of the way. We had to unplug the table lamps because the plugs kept falling out (until our son went to sleep). We had to unplug the clock and put it up high because he kept trying to play with it. The place really needs a proper remodel badly as there is a lot of potential given its location.
