Last weekend we went to the Yakamia valley, Visiting our little sister Allie, she is a school teacher and the girls and I were excited to go. What more could a girls weekend need besides each other some wine tasting and a hotel that made us feel right at home. The drive over was beautiful, it had been a few years sense the last time that I went over the pass. Our first stop was at the North Bend outlets. We found a ton of things we wanted to buy but we were good and saved our money but we will be going back sometime soon!
We then went to Allies apartment, grabbed her and then headed out to dinner. We ate the most amazing burgers & fries at this hole in the wall burger joint. The prices over in Yakamia were amazing. We looked around the mall and did a little shopping, after we were done we headed to the hotel for the night......
The Ledgestone was beautiful! It was jam packed with kids and their sports teams. When we got there we checked in with their ever so friendly front desk staff was so helpful, they even helped us find our way to them when the GPS was having a hard time. Ledgestone Hotel offer unique contemporary feeling to their suites. It truly reflects their commitment to offer spacious suites with “Essence of Home” All the amenities go above and beyond expectation at a amazing reasonable rate. Making their goal of making sensible ways to reduce the travel costs for every single one of their guests. They want you to feel like you could easily prepare meals in your guest room kitchen or use the complimentary laundry equipment to get all that vacation clothes clean.
Our room had everything we needed. We kept telling Kerry that this is what she needed for her first apartment! It had a two person kitchen table, fridge, oven, microwave oven, coffee maker, cook top stove, sink, all the cups,plates and silverware, there was even a DISHWASHER!!!! The living area had a couch, flatscreen TV, Coffee table, nice lamps and a really comfortable chair. The couch is a fold out so that you can have an extra pull out in case your kids or in our case the Mom comes! The guest room feels more like a small home than a standard hotel room, with features you would see in a house, apartment or condominium, larger than typical hotel rooms, We kept telling our younger sister Kerry that this would be the perfect first time apartment or condo for her.
Each room comes with these beautiful details, that are so wonderful that the hotel owners thought of for each of us guests.
- Luxury bed package featuring deluxe linens and a cozy synthetic down blanket
- Well-lit work desk
- Flat-screen TVs in both the living room and bedroom
- MP3-compatible alarm clock radio
- Spacious closet with a convenient clothes basket
- Iron and board
- Hair dryer
- Vanity mirror with 3x magnification
The Bathroom had a wonderful tub, a nice vanity with their own hairdryer and vanity mirror. It shows you how much thought really went into their comfort for all their guest here. The wonderful line that they used for the shampoo, conditioner, bodywash, soap, each Tarocco products feature olive oil with extracts of Sicillian Red (Blood) Oranges, whuch are rich in Vitamin C and other powerful antioxidants. The smell of these products sent me instantly on a mini vacation.
The lobby had a coffee area, a computer work station for all the guests to enjoy,a vending room, and even a workout room. It was so nice, it would be just what I would be looking for as a great place to hang my hat on a long road trip. Perfect to climb out of the family car, strech out and enjoy some space.
With perks like these things you will question why you would think about staying anywhere else when visiting.
- Alaska Air Miles with every stay
- Wireless Internet access throughout the hotel
- Weekly housekeeping services
- Fully equipped kitchen with refrigerator, microwave, two-burner ceramic cook top, toaster, coffee maker, dishwasher and dining table

Sleep easier when you are able to know that this hotel’s professional night security personnel adds an additional sense of well being while away from home. The only thing that made me not happy about this entire stay was the thought that if I want to stay at another property I would have to go to Alaska to do so, meaning that I know where I will stay when I go there! I hope that I will find out that soon they will be going all over the United States so I can stay at a home away from home with them, they stick to their motto. Making sure that your as comfortable as you would be at your own home and where you are welcome to feel a little like family.
We can not wait to come back and stay here the next time we come to visit our little sister.
The next time you are in town you should stay here as well.
