Their response was quick, their communication was clear, and throughout the process I truly felt like a priority. Every interaction showed real care and attention, not just going through the motions. What stood out most was how genuine and human their communication was--no runaround, just thoughtful service and a sincere effort to make sure I was happy. It's rare to come across this level of professionalism and care, especially in the world today! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them for both causal and professional work!

The bowling nights were supposed to be social events but it was at times very difficult to hear the people we were trying to chat with (and I'm pretty sure my watch gave me at least one "it's too loud and that's bad for your ears" warning). I'd enjoy that volume way more if we were there to dance. I'm more comfortable in the restaurant so it's on our list of options when planning to go out for breakfast or dinner. They usually have some good beer options (menu available on untappd) and I've enjoyed their cocktails and mocktails. They do a good job with Bloody Mary garnishes. The downsides: - Take-out sometimes takes a super long time (even if you order online well in advance). - They recently took steak off their menu. We were bummed because it's one of the easiest things to get for my husband (food allergies) and on our most recent visit the whole reason we came was because a friend wanted steak (and eggs). - When you order fish & chips they normally ask which side you'd like and I usually pick coleslaw. This means I'm expecting fish & chips with coleslaw. What they deliver instead is fish & coleslaw. Sometimes I'm glad for the lighter meal but sometimes I really am craving some fries so it's annoying. I think I tried to talk to a waitress about it once but the conversation didn't go anywhere. I don't know if I'll order it a third time but I might be tempted to just because I'm curious to see what will arrive next time I ask for "fish & chips with coleslaw." We haven't explored their arcade yet. They used to also have a casino/card room but it closed in about 2025.

If you DON'T want the most caring, loving, sweet, TALENTED, amazing photographer taking pictures of the best day of your life (hopefully a once in a lifetime deal), then you probably also hate cupcakes, puppies and should look somewhere else. I kid. I found Amanda's website and knew I had to have her as our wedding photographer right away. Her style and ability to capture not only what the eye sees, but what the heart feels is remarkable. I felt at ease and I knew I had made the right decision right away after our initial communication and was sure I had won the wedding photographer lottery after our engagement shot with her. - Oh hey torrential downpour that wants to ruin our beach engagement shot - Amanda immediately came up with plan B and the pictures turned out amazing. Prior to our big day Amanda always took the time to answer every single question I had right away (and I had tons). Then once the big day had arrived I felt like a family member was taking our pictures and not some stranger photographer I'll never see again. This in turn made us feel so at ease and relaxed and the pictures capture that feeling beautifully. I could go on and on, but you get the gist. Whether you are looking for wedding, engagement, baby or family photos .... Look no further, you found what you are looking for. Thanks Amanda and Hearts & Horseshoes for being amazing and blessing us with your talent and coming into our lives!

If you are looking for a photojournalistic approach to your wedding with vogue image elements,…read moreHearts & Horseshoes is a must. I just adore Amanda's creative eye and her ease of directing us when we were shooting our couples shots. I am over the moon for our wedding photos! Amanda and Katy captured all the special moments and emotions. When reminiscing over our photos, it feels like I'm re-living our wedding day. I love that Amanda brings a fantastically creative second photographer, thus ensuring all those special little moments are forever captured. Amanda is fearless and so creative. Our wedding was near a marina and Amanda had no problem asking folks for entrance so we could snap some images in front of the boats (and even ON a boat with the owner's permission!). These are some of our favorite images and totally melts my heart! My mom couldn't be at the wedding due to her health condition, and they captured our face time conversation when I was putting on my gown, so special to me. The day went so smoothly and we even had some time at the end for extra photos which turned out to be so classic and glam! The other bit which is just as important, is that Amanda and Katy were absolute gems to hang out with. You kids will be hanging out together all day and it's nice to have a photographer that you would love to have a beer with too. It was a seamless day (because Amanda planned ahead of time, so we knew exactly where to be and when) and I was surprised at all the moments they captured because they were also so stealth and behind the scenes. Much love to Hearts & Horseshoes.

Nice shops and restaurants all around that you can stroll to. Free parking. Coffee maker, fridge, microwave, and hair dryer in room. We felt very safe for walking in the area at night. Lots of food choices nearby. After a sleep we determined that the bed comfort was good to ok. Pretty solid and firm mattresses with white sheets and a thin blanket. Good temp control in room. Not too hot but not cold. Best part was check in and check out via text is amazingly convenient. Cons: paper thin walls, so we can hear noise from other rooms. Plus the noisy traffic on Jefferson Street is very loud since it's a very, very busy street basically all day and night. Noted at 11pm there is still constant traffic swishing by. Super Thin windows with tissue paper thin blinds so there is absolutely no noise buffering. Could also hear music beats vibrating through walls. Sorry your ear plugs do not protect from music vibrations since there is no definitive sound but still can feel the beat while not hearing lyrics. I'm a heavy sleeper but woken up by this noise after several hours sleeping is too much! Then in the morning around 5:30 AM, the noise started through the walls again with the neighbor's bedside clock alarm going off . The in-room provided alarm clocks suck...as ours unexpectedly went off by 6am as well!!!!!! Plus we could hear the neighbor's voices through the walls word for word in the morning. An additional improvement suggestion that I think is very important for personal safety: the owners should install a deadbolt in addition to a single swing bar lock at the top of the door that they currently offer. Since this motel does remote check in via text their door locks are pin coded. It is very unsettling to think how little security the physical doors offer with a single swing lock inside. I would've felt much more secure inside the room if they also had a manual deadbolt above the door knob. Noted, this accommodation was much less expensive than other places in the area that were double what we paid here. Still we paid well over $200 on a Friday night. This is bottom tier lodging for sure but a trade off in saving money while being in an excellent location. Thankfully the streets in this area appear safe. Location is excellent for convenience but maybe not rest. Beware.

Not impressed, to say the least. We arrived around 4:00 pm and checked in. We were told where our…read moreroom was and told we could park in any spot, but not the EV spots. We realized we were on the second floor and there was NO elevator. It was quite a struggle to get our luggage up the stairs. When we arrived at our room, we were very underwhelmed. The wall AC unit was crazy loud and ran pretty much ALL the time. We couldn't figure out how to turn it off, but it was too hot to turn off anyways (100 degrees on our last day). The attention to detail in the room was low. There were wires hanging down behind the TV, the doors were removed from the closet (not sure why) and only one drawer had a handle/pull. The other drawers just had holes. The bathroom vanity was touch up painted in a different color. There's a table with four chairs with room for two people (the microwave is sitting on the table). These things just made the room feel kind of low quality - like it was a rush job renovation. The bathroom backs to an alley and has a floodlight shining in the window all night - with no window cover, so you have to keep the door closed all night if you don't want the bright light shining in. The bathroom door is super noisy, so it woke everyone up if one person would get up to use the bathroom at night. The shower drain was not draining well and we stood in a bit of standing water with each shower. To e bathroom is smaller than a cruise ship. Super tight! There was a lot of dust in the bathroom and the shower cleanliness was questionable. There were no towels or paper towels in the kitchen, which I thought was weird. There is no housekeeping and they don't even give you fresh towels each day. We had to go down to the office twice to ask and there was no one at the desk. We waited around for quite awhile and ended up having to knock on the staff door next door to request towels. Same thing another day. The breakfast is nothing but dry crockpot oatmeal with toppings and pop tarts. The oatmeal was ok for a day or two, but we got really sick of it by the third day. As far as sleep, I had a hard time because the windows only had pull down shades which didn't fit well and the sun started streaming in the back window early. The bed was comfortable but the pull out sofa bed was miserable. I felt bad that my daughter had to sleep on it. We were in Pullman to help my daughter move into her new apartment, so the uncomfortable bed pushed her to start sleeping in her apartment before it was even fully ready. The parking was a nightmare. The second night we returned late and couldn't find a spot. We tried to go to the office to ask where to park, but the office was closed. We drove around back and parked. We didn't notice any no parking signs. The next morning we had a tow warning notice on our car. We were never told where the overflow parking was - just not to park in the EV spots. Apparently you can park on the side of the hotel, but not the back. Thank goodness we didn't have our car towed! The three positives: The free drink on the first night was a nice perk. The people in the office were pretty friendly. The main bed was comfortable. The negatives: - No elevator - Loud, subpar AC - Floodlight in bathroom window - Rickety bathroom door - Poor drainage in shower - Tiny, dirty bathroom - No housekeeping or fresh towels - Very little parking - Limited breakfast (oatmeal and pop tarts only) - Uncomfortable pull out bed - No way to contact front desk, except calling main reservation line and getting an AI assistant or going down to office and speaking to someone (if they're there). - Dilapidated and dirty rooms We have stayed in Pullman before and while we understand that accommodation options are limited, we were shocked that this hotel had such raving reviews. It makes us question the validity of all this reviews...
