Great location and views!

I stayed at the G. House years ago - what a dive! But the (recent?) renovation has helped a great deal. The lobby still smells funky but the rooms are very comfy and clean (and do not smell), the king-sized pillow-top bed was just the ticket after a day walking around downtown Olympia. The views on both sides are wonderful - either Capitol Lake or the charming square on the other. Great location, lots of shops and places to drink/eat nearby, close to the Capitol campus. The hotel was quiet, clean, nice amenities (laptop hook-up in room) and a terrific bbq place off the lobby. Really nice staff. This is a good getaway place for couples on a budget who like to be in a walking city and like the convenience of being right downtown. Olympia is unique and charming. We will be back.
