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.

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.

For starters, my family and I come here more often than not on nights out. Not only for date…read morenights, but also family meals. I love that they have x2 different sizes for their orders (tapas:smaller) and (regular:much larger portions). This allows us to try anything and everything we want in the appropriate sizes. I know on Mondays that they have half price Mojitos and Margaritas, but they have special events and more on other nights! I almost always order their specials for dinners, a three course app, entree, and dessert. For lunch I really enjoy their smash burgers... the BEST in town. Please try their Tres Leches dessert... omg so delectable. I can't help but order their hibiscus margarita with the special hibiscus salt every time... I love the flavor they add to Ellensburg and the variety in their menu. I've never had a dish that I don't enjoy. 10/10, I will always return. Thank you for your service. -Shelan (a regular at this point)

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.

Well... we finally did it... and shame on us for waiting so long. Such a very cool place and the vibe was great. An open concept inside, with a couple spots outdoors as you enter inside. My wife and I decided to split our meals and we ended up ordering the Chicken Tinga Street Tacos, as well as, a platter of Chicken Nachos. Both very delicious and the cilantro is simply supreme on this! The radishes was a nice touch, with some sauce over corn tortillas with that Cotiga cheese. I would prefer flour, but I'll take it! We also had the Saison which was light, a bit dry, crisp and sort of lemony. All in all, we enjoyed ourselves and the neighboring tables. Had some good conversations with local folks. As always, enjoy and Happy Mule Elking!
