Fort Lewis Extended Stay Motel - JBLM

10/10 Excellent

"Convenient and comfortable stay while visiting our son. We chose this motel for its close proximity to JBLM, and it made commuting to and from the base incredibly easy. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the staff was very accommodating to military families. It offered great value for the price and provided a peaceful place to rest during our visit. We would highly recommend it to any parents coming to see their soldier!"

Hotel Quality Stay in the Heart of Lakewood

8/10 Good

"We really enjoyed our short stay at this cute, charming home! There was plenty of space for everyone to sleep, and the beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook, and there were plenty of towels and washcloths. Since it’s an older home, there are some narrow stairs and creaky floors, which added to its charm but are worth knowing about. The basement bedrooms did have a slight musty basement smell, but overall the house was comfortable and had everything we needed. I would not there is only one dedicated parking spot, so our other vehicle had to street park, but it was not inconvenient. The owner was wonderful! very responsive, helpful, and easy to communicate with. The location was also very convenient to the base and nearby stores."

Waterfront Gem w/ Boat Dock & Lift in Lakewood!

10/10 Excellent

"A much-needed calm, cool, and collective home for a getaway."
