Top University District Hotel Reviews

Ramada by Wyndham Downtown Spokane

8/10 Good

"The room was clean, though it was booked for a 4 person stay we only got 3 towels and when we called down for an extra one we never received it which was disappointing but we didn't try to request it again. The breakfast was good. Staff was friendly."
