The Hotel Y

It’s like an old style roadside motel that my family often stayed in when I was a kid. The difference is that this is much nicer, cleaner and with very well thought out finishes and quality. I pointed out to my son how whoever did the caulking in the shower and the sink took extra time to make it look good. Often, caulking is sloppy but this was exceptional. It’s the little things like that. The beds were very comfortable and plenty of great pillows. The pool was nice, 86 degrees with a pergola in the corner and a privacy fence made out of composite material and a gate that has a magnetic lock. They had a locked room (opens with your room key) with a washer/dryer 1 dollar wash, 25 cent to start dry, ice machine, pop machine and 2 vending machines. The breakfast was good, waffle maker, brea

Positive: The cleanliness and the layout of the room was exceptional. The bed was huge and super comfy!!! Negative: No

Hotel Y is our go-to hotel when we visit relatives in Yakima. It is a treasure at a very affordable price! The rooms are clean and modern, the beds are super comfortable, and there are lots of conveniences including plenty of ports for electronics. The entire staff is unfailingly friendly and eager to please, with Janie deserving her own big shout out for customer service that is above and beyond! The free breakfast has options for everyone, not just the cheap carbs that some similarly priced motels offer. Some relatives have expressed concern about the location due to the somewhat sketchy look of 1st Street in places, but we approach it from Highway 12 which is maybe a block from Hotel Y, and we have always had restful and quiet stays - never any issues.

I was honestly worried when driving down the road towards this hotel- there are so many rundown looking hotels/motels on this street. I thought it would be like those other places. I was thrilled to find out how wrong I was. Lovely property, clean and modern, with a fenced pet area and right next to Crave Coffee. Fresh feeling rooms with comfortable beds. Surprisingly excellent complimentary breakfast. And the staff is top notch. From front desk to housekeeping, I was met every time with a smile from a helpful and happy employee. Stay here instead of a lesser than hotel that will be twice the price!

The upscale rooms with modern charging ports and high end amenities and the comfortable bed was totally unexpected on my first stay here. I was blown away by the overall niceness of the Hotel Y. They've got a , laundry room, pet area, and don't forget breakfast. With a great selection of biscuits and gravy, waffles, sausage, egg, and cheese muffins, burritos, oatmeal, cereal bars, etc. I would recommend to everyone to come stay at the Hotel Y, you won't be disappointed, I promise you. Also I forgot to mention the staff were more than welcoming and quite accommodating.
