The Hobo Inn is very nostalgic. If you are looking for a 5 star hotel go to Mariot or Hilton, and pay the price. We went during the off season and recieved service from the best people. Elisa and her staff work very hard to make the stay a down home pleasant experience. Caboose #4 is very quaint and cozy.... more

We spent New Years Eve at the Elbe Restaurant and Lounge across the street. Very nice people over there and the Band was great! After the New Year had rung in we went to our Caboose to check in. We had the yellow caboose, very roomy the heat was perfect, set on Low setting all night and it was 30... more

By far, this was the worst dining experience we have ever had. The condition of the shabby dining area should have been our first clue. Being very hungry we took a chance... big mistake. For an outrageous price the salmon dinner, complete with canned green beans, was not fully cooked. It was returned to the kitchen and what came back... more

DO NOT EAT AT THE RESTAURANT. Service is practically non-existent. Chicken undercooked, soup and corn on the cob, ice cold. Waitress inattentive or just plain ignored us. One of us got serious food poisoning from the mulligan stew. Try someplace else. For the prices they charge, would have expected better. Inside apparently not air conditioned. more

Normally I wouldn't take the time to post a review like this, but since this place is in the middle of nowhere, I feel that it's my responsibility to forewarn any perspective travelers... STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE! I booked my reservation here a month in advance (and called the day prior to confirm) so that my girlfriend and I... more

We drove past The Hobo Inn en route to Mount Rainier. My son was begging my husband to stop. However, my husband was anxious to get to Ranier. We stayed longer at Rainier than we had intended. We found ourselves driving at night looking for a place to stay. Our 7 year old was already sleeping when we drove past... more

My husband & I stumbled onto this place as we were driving through WA. Such a great idea, and one look @ the place & we knew that we HAD to stop. It also happened to be valentine's day, we had an awesome berry cobbler in the restaurant, met some nice down to earth people. ( We KNEW we weren't... more

The room was larger than expected - no tv which was fine with us. Very comfortable beds - our first room had problems with the air conditioner. Without hesitation, someone came in assessed the problem and we were moved to a larger caboose immediately (they even ehlped us move!) - We loved the area (Stay away from Scaleburger!) and the... more

We found this place very quaint and just downright great. We have recently moved to this area. We checked in at the bar/restaurant and the staff was very friendly and helpful assisting us with a wealth of information about the local area and places to go see. The bar was also in a railroad car and very clean. The absence... more
