I have stayed at this property many times each year for a long time. Fairly recently, it was renovated, and this meant adding an elevator to the second floor and refurbished rooms. The layout in each room is still much like the old hotel it really is, so the sink is right inside the door off the hallway, rather than being in the bathroom, and the electrical system in the rooms remains fairly antiquated. But of one primarily just wants a neat, clean convenient place to stay in the area, this one is about the best option in my opinion. Shopping and dining options exist in Johnson Creek, but they are quite limited, and tend towards fast food, although there are a few decent sit down restaurants. Access from I-94 is easy and quick, but with the hotel on a hill above the highway, little of the road noise reaches into the hotel; I have never heard any highway noise in the rooms.
