    I sought out this motel because I like to stay in classic 'motels' where you can park by your door, etc... While it looked charming, and it should have been, it was far from it. My non-smoking room had clearly had someone smoking in it recently; the sheets were gross (CLOROX!!) and there was no curtain/shade on the back window. This motel could be wonderful but it is in desperate need of TLC!

    I'm just going to say run do not walk when you come to this place and I'm telling you this because I rented a room as a Airbnb and was way overcharged for what I got. The place was not only about 95Β° inside the room there was a bunch of scarier looking people hanging out all over the place. It was not very clean windows wide open. I don't know why she had all these instructions if she knew somebody else was going to stay with me I wouldn't bring anybody with me if that was the case.

    Absolutely the worst Motel I've ever stayed in my life. There was a used pregnancy test and other miscellaneous garbage in the bathroom garbage as well as the heat were staying seriously bad as well as the mattress itself look like something had died on it and it smelled terrible. I would not recommend this place for anybody to ever stay at no matter how cheap it is I think that's it right there

    Don't do it, unless you want to be surrounded by junkies. Room smelled like urine and cigarettes, but the worst part was that there were bed bugs on the pillows. Nancy didn't answer any of my calls nor did even bother to call me back after leaving several voice messages. Spend the extra $40 bucks for a decent room.

    Room was extremely dirty, couldn't even tell if the sheets or towels were clean. Sheets had many stains and didnt stay on bed. Bathroom mirror and walls were filled in filth. On top of that the hot water wasn't working barely and the heater stopped working in the middle of the night. They knew many of us staying there lost our heat in multiple rooms. Never offered a credit or refund, at least a discount would have been in order. The man at the front desk was nice and personable, but very dirty, unkept place. I think the manager there has his hands full with outdated, old, broken rooms and plumbing.

    I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Holly Motel. I have stayed at the Holly several times over the years. This time, I had not stayed there in over 3 years. The Holly Motel is an old school motel that has been open for what seems like forever. The Holly is a neighbor establishment. It is eloquent in it's simplicity. You don't have to have a car. You don't have to have a credit card. You can just walk up to the office, show your identification and the ability to pay for the room and you are in for a special treat. The rooms are not fancy, but clean, COVID ready and equipped with all of the essentials needed to have a wonderful and peaceful night's rest. They have WiFi, cable and flat screen TVS. There is even a refrigerator to keep your adult beverages cold. There is also a laundry room which comes in real handy when you are traveling without much luggage. The Holly Motel is the perfect place for a weekend getaway, or longer stay if you like, to get a change of scenery and recharge your mind, body and spirit. The reasonable room rates is certainly a plus. Give the Holly Motel a visit. I am convinced that you will enjoy your stay.

    the staff went above and beyond to help me. place is pretty run down, but its cheap and quiet. God bless the staff. I was out of hours and no where to go cuz of traffic. a long term resident just moved out of this one. I watched them clean it. new linen and they shampooed the carpets. this place is run down but they try their best!

    Cheap rates, nice friendly people, decent clean rooms, quiet place to kick back and relax and they have a laundry room on site. My only complaint is there's no ice machine and no visitors allowed. Over all i would recommend this motel to my friends and family. And i would defiantly stay there again.

    Whomever said this place was nice either lived in a dumpster prior or has never set foot on any other part of the planet. Drive 5 more miles. For the love of god...drive 5 more miles. Spend the extra 10 bucks.

    Owner is a nice guy, and His family seem very kind. The support Staff are a lil too nosey for their own good, My gf accidentally left something important to Her in a room before we checked out, the housekeeping guy eventually found it, and didn't know what it was, and after seeing it in His hand, I think his gf got angry and threw My gf's property away instead of putting it in a "lost and found." We stayed recently and I let the owner know I was going to an ATM, and I would be back to pay for another day, I think He told the housekeeper. "But He forgot", came back to the room, and the guy has His head in the door trying to interact with My gf despite being told we were staying another day, guy is a total creeper.

    I love this place. The owners are wonderful people. They are really nice. Although the maintenance can do a better job at fixing the rooms. Instead of letting them fall apart . There good ppl why wouldn't you do a great job for them if you work for them... xoxo

    I mean, everybody knows what kind of people stay at the Holly. I am one of those kind of people, and it's cool to be able to pay cash and only a $20 deposit

    We walked into the room and it smelled so so bad. Reeked of cigarettes!! And when we were settling in the person that gave us the room told us to get out and was extremely rude. Worst service ever!! I’ve never met such a rude person. He was very unkind and told us he had cameras and that he was watching us. Don’t ever stay here!!

    The Holly Motel is a great place to stay! They have great rates, in fact the best in Olympia Tumwater area. The staff here are super friendly, very accommodating,and are always willing to help out anytime of the day or night! This is a very quiet place to relax! Don't come here if you're looking for a place to party, this is definitely not the place! It is as much a drug-free place as possible! I've been here over 2 weeks and I've seen zero drug activity! They do have a laundry room on-site, the rooms are decent, very clean, and the units all have AC, a mini fridge and a microwave as well as free cable with at least 75 channels & wifi! This is a great place to stay if you need a room. I would recommend this place to anybody I know that needed to stay in Olympia! Great job Holly Motel staff!
