So this hotel is strictly for people on a budget and/or don’t really care about your accommodations. Never stayed here before until this time. The room itself was huge, complete with a queen size bed, microwave and fridge. Lots of room. Rooms are quiet. Now for the exterior outside of the rooms, you get quite alot of colorful characters. If you stick to your own business, no one bothers you at all. Feels and looks sketchy. But that’s it. TV did not work. But the room did what i needed, and that was shower and sleep.

Extremely dirty, didn’t provide WiFi info, tv didn’t work, bedding stained, curtains wouldn’t shut. Literally would never stay there again, only had to because of my unique situation, thank goodness it was only two days. Also staff was awful, unhelpful, stared at you, and made things do uncomfortable. -1/10

This place was cheap, and I got what I paid for. That said, there were no vermin. But the furniture was decades old and battered, there's a big patch on the ceiling painted with mismatched paint, the man behind the counter couldn't print a boarding .assignment because he didn't have a good grasp of the english language. This hotel would be where day laborers would pool resources and stay so I guess it serves a purpose, but I won't be returning. wow--that bad.

bathroom looked nicely renovated until we looked actually in it, the shower was black, the toilet was dirty. There were red stains on the floor. The room smelt like someone had smoked there for years even though it was a non-smoking room. Sheets were marked / stained. Every surface in the room was dirty and needed to be wiped down by us.

No sunshine at the the Sunshine hotel

The room was filthy, dirty walls n floors, boogers on the walls, dust everywhere. There were european guests that cooked in the parking lot, played cards in the parking lot till late at night. They left it a mess till morning then had thier children clean it up. They were rude when i tried to converse with them, they dumped out an ashtray i used that was sitting on the air conditioning unit and threw it in front of my door. It was a sad, horrible experience. It was the only available room at the time but ill stay in a tent the next time, rather than have to pay for that.

i tried to rent a motel room in Fife Washington from Florida for my brother. The Proprietor said he could not take payment over the phone. He said I had to book online. He was not specific as to which service. I booked with expedia. Still tthe proprietor would not rent the room without the card being present to charge even after I filed the card with expedia. At first he said that he did not have anything from expedia. Then he said he had the reservation but needed the card. He left the premises in his car without renting the room to my brother.

Not recommend

Hands down the grossest hotel I have ever stayed in my life. Host was very nice and helpful. However, the room smelled like they just sprayed a ton of glade all over. It had a dirty hand print on the door, holes in the walls and door. The office chairs look like they came from a dumpster, full of dirt and something I would not sit in. There we light bulbs missing and some didn’t even work. And the smell was so bad in the room, it was almost unbearable. The shower had zero water pressure and almost didn’t even work. It was just a lite waterfall of water that came out. There we stains and rips on the bed sheets and there were a ton of buttons missing from the phone in the room. So, overall I would not ever stay there again or recommend anyone to for the sake of hygiene, cleanliness and the smell.
