The walls are very thin and you can clearly hear conversation from the next room and hallway. The room was cold and it does not have individual heating. The bathroom had water damaged ceiling tiles and a dead bug on the floor upon arrival. Coffee was not ordered so there was not enough for breakfast.

Not worth the money!
I would not recommend this hotel. Paint was peeling on the bathroom walls. Shower faucet was pretty much broken. Either cold or scalding. They said coffee, tea, hot cocoa & spiced cider. Unfortunately no coffee and no hot water to make the other beverages. At the price we paid was not worth it. Should be a budget hotel at $39.95

I read about this hotel so I wasn’t surprised with any of it. The room was clean, it was close to the ferry terminal, and it was a place to sleep for the night. It is noisy (thin walls; bring ear plugs) & room is small but again, I knew all this beforehand. If you’re expecting a 5-star hotel, this is not the place for you, but it’s a clean place for the price.

The place is old and the rooms were small but clean. Had a nice breakfast area and adequate food. Good overhang to park the bikes. Easy walkable to a very good restraunt next door. The brewery is a couple of blocks away. Would stay here again.

Room I reserved was unavailable. Light over bed didn’t work. Carped very old and literally sticky. Bathroom floor floods with water when you take a shower. Paper -thin walls so I could hear literally every word of my neighbor’s normal-tone conversations. No USB chargers or mini-fridge in a $180/night room is ridiculous. Old-school metal key! I should have saved the money and slept in my car. Or just not have slept at all.

Hotel? Motel, of the Worst Kind.
Keystone Hotel should be shut down by building code and health department. The place is skanky, pipes go through the room, outlets have missing covers and behind furniture or bed. The window was open on my arrival, the heat is central, loudly blowing 24/7. The heat is too high, hence the open window? When the system "kicks on" the entire room vibrates like the spinning cycle of an old washing machine that lasts 3+ minutes. This happens often. The eating area is filthy. The table I sat at had something dried across it. I moved to another, less dirty and wipeable. Everything on the counter needs to be removed so the counter can be thoroughly cleaned and sanitized. I brought down the basket with tea bags to the reception desk, trying to be descrete, pointed and said, "You need to look inside." I did that twice. THERE WERE THREE DEAD MAGGOTS INSIDE! They had been there awhile. The "queen" bed is two twin mattresses side by side. The best thing is the newer washer and dryer.

On the outside it looks great. Inside, the rooms are so outdated and very run down. We had mold all over both bathrooms and it wasn’t very clean. It was quite pricey for what it is. The staff were nice and breakfast was good at least. The hotel itself is in rough shape.

This was a unique property. The rooms are simple and efficient, no frills. The breakfast and coffee in the morning were good. The staff was helpful and friendly. It's a great location. It's close to the dock. We walked to our cruise. There are nice restaurants and coffee shops nearby. One thing to be aware of is that you can hear all the goings on in the rooms around you, but it wasn't overly noisy.

The smoke detector said remove by 2004. It is 2024. Those things are good for 10 years. So in 30 years they haven’t worried about safety of their guests. There was some red substance on the ceiling, toothpaste on the walls and some black gunk on the bathroom wall. Was able to clean it up with some water and soap. Not really sure how the maids missed it since the ceiling was covered. The smell is so bad in there like spilled heating oil. It permeates your clothes if you stay long. And it was so hot in the room it was unbearable. The rooms are not sound proof at all. The building is an old prefab from the oil days. So I don’t expect much when going there. But they are really leaning into the whole you have no where else to go during fishing season thing. The towels were clean.

It was very close to where we needed to be for the weekend (Goldrush Days). But it's a very old hotel and you can tell, small rooms, very thin walls and feeling very worn.
