Windmill Inn Lynden

Upon entering hotel, loud talk radio was playing no one was at the front desk. I called the number. A lady walked into office and did not turn the music down. Had to talk with an elevated voice. The entire time went to room. There was a key left in the door knob which we could not remove Front desk Lady sent over what I’m assuming is their handyman an elderly gentleman he wiggled and wiggled the key finally got the key unjammed, then left we had issues locking, and then removing the key from the door knob. toilet paper roll holder was broken. With less than a 1/3 of a roll to use The rooms are very outdated and in disrepair very small room with two full-size beds, barely squeezed in hardly any room to move around the air conditioner is barely hanging on in the window one slight bump and it’ll probably fall out the window. The refrigerator has old nasty water that froze in it totally not worth the hundred dollars.

The room was clean. No continental breakfast offered-even though booking info said one is provided. No bath towels, only hand towels. No coffee provided in the room.

Not a nice place We showed up and the woman asked if we had dogs. I saw that the motel was animal friendly. I told her we had dogs, 3 of them. Then she said the cost is $40. Each. And they had to stay in a kennel because she said that people complain about dirty rooms is dogs were allowed. So our dogs stayed in our vehicle. We went in side and the carpet was filthy but there was no bed bugs and the sheets were clean. The tv control was warn out so had to use the buttons on the tv. So we will never stay at this place again. The reason we did stay was because there were good reviews. Well it’s not good.

I like the fact that they were close to stores restaurants and the fairgrounds easy walking distance they're doing a lot of work on the place it looks like and I think they are trying to do a good job of improving the buildings. I didn't really see any of the staff except when I was checked in and she was kind of cold better than that it was a nice big room could be a little bit cleaner

The Pro's: The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The room we stayed in was very quiet. There were two windows with beautiful views. The room had good heat, there was a small fridge with a freezer that was very helpful (not the cleanest). The room also had a microwave. Bedding was clean. There was cable and WiFi. The Con's: The room looked well used. There were scratches in the paint through the bathroom. The furniture was stained and well used. There were stains and small holes in the walls. The carpets had stains and runs in it. The toilet seat needed to be replaced. And there was no coffee pot. Overall it was alright to sleep there but I would probably not return or recommend it. Sorry

The place needs work and it looks like there improvements that there working on showed promising future.
