DO NOT BOOK A STAY HERE!
ESPECIALLY if you book through a third-party booking site (booking.com, tripadvisor, CapitalOne Travel, etc).
We stayed in December 2024, but it has taken me this long to write a review because I have had to go back and forth with my credit card company (it rhymes with Crapital Ton Unravel) to get a refund for 7 of the 8 nights we booked to stay at Kennewick Inn and Suites. (news flash - it wasn't successful) We ended up having to check out after only one night because of the following reasons:
There is absolutely NO cookware, dishes, and silverware in the "kitchen". We came from abroad and plum forgot to pack all of our kitchenware (go figure!) so our idea to cook and eat-in using the kitchen was out the window.
Speaking of out the window and directly across the street (as close to property line as possible) a man was playing an electric guitar WITH an amplifier on full volume pointed at the hotel from when we arrived (around 9pm) until we finally passed out from exhaustion (about midnight) We do not know when he actually stopped "playing" his guitar. I kid you not. Now I do like me a good guitar solo, but this wasn't it. He sucked and no one could escape that reality. When we asked the receptionist about the "entertainment", she said he was there most nights and they could not do anything about it because he wasn't actually on their property.
Again, if you do actually book this place, which I hope to God you do not, you will also want to bring all of your cleaning supplies as the room will NOT be clean. There was crusty old food stuck to kitchen floor collecting next to the baseboards. Lucky us, we had a bonus feature in our room: part of the floor next to one of the beds was squishy. Yes, foot sinking into the floor squishy with water coming up from underneath...
Oh! And bring your own toilet paper! I went to use the bathroom shortly after we arrived and there was absolutely no toilet paper. I had to send my husband out to find the receptionist (who was hiding in the staff laundry room to get away from Guitar Hero across the street). She gave him A roll. One. Roll. Of. Toilet. Paper. (even though we were booked for an entire week)
So, if you do risk your health and sanity by staying here, book direct. DO NOT book using a third-party booking company. (I know I mentioned this above, but I absolutely can not stress enough how important this is.)
When you inevitably check out ahead of your scheduled check out time (once you experience this establishment, you will understand) the management will not give you a refund if you booked through a third-party booking company (*cough-cough* Crapital Ton Unravel).
They probably won't give you a refund anyway, but that's besides the point.
The management will tell you to talk to your third-party booking company to get a refund. Your third-party booking company will then try to get in contact with the hotel management on your behalf but will never get a response. After numerous phone calls to said third-party booking company you will NOT get your money back despite the fact that you did not stay 7 of the 8 nights you booked because the Kennewick Inn and Suites is a gross, loud, and poorly run establishment.
DO NOT STAY HERE! You've been warned.
