“Under New Management!!!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 October 2011

We stayed at the Discovery Inn recently and was greeted by the most energetic and friendly counter gal. I found out she was the NEW Manager and saw, during my stay, that she and her employees never seemed to stop. They were always around cleaning or painting or fixing items. It was a very pleasant experience and am looking forward to seeing what's been done next itme I stay here.

Room Tip: No restaurant or fitness room but the city park is witin walking distance and there is a sandwich sh...

“Ghost Town?????”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 November 2010

people found this review helpful

I've stayed here a few times when the Drill Sgt. and his overly energetic and (im sorry) but very loud and annoying wife was working. Despite the headache of a check in I enjoyed what they offered which was to make me comfortable in any way possible. I Travel to Grants Pass about 4 times a month and although work is to stay at hotels and rate them I enjoyed this hotel for my personal trips on the Hellgate because its walking distance and they do serve a nice wine on the Hellgate tour. The past probably 25 times (literally) I have come to Grants Pass there has been no cars in the parking lot and nobody in the lobby. The door is even locked so check in was impossible. I finally tried to call for a few days and no answer, my messages were not even replied to. I asked around town and the local surrounding business' and its the same story nobody knows whats going on but there are never more than a car or two there at a time if any. Discovery Inn where are you? Are you closing down? Have you moved? Not a huge concern to me because there are many other hotels in the city. But, we all want to know whats going on?

“Wonderful staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 August 2008

My experience with this motel started off wonderful. The manager that booked my room was so wonderful and compassionate. I went to stay to recover from major surgery and the managers went above and beyond their duties. I was treated like royalty. They checked on me and also brought me items they felt would make me more comfortable. The room was very neat and smelled good. The location was great for me to recover and take walks to downtown grants pass. I will stay there again on my frequent trips to grants pass while I am looking to buy a home.

“a nightmare!!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 April 2005

people found this review helpful

My wife and I pulled into Discovery Inn at Grants Pass on Sat. of April 16th around 7:30 P.M. The check in woman looked like the cleaning lady to begin with and she struggled with all aspects of checking someone into a room(on my receipt is a terminal I.D. that is L124plt and the Merchant# is 9115855257. After a long time with the credit card payment and other things the person could not find a key to room 117 which she had selected for us,agter 4-5 minutes she found and gave us one key(the office is on one side of the street and room 117 is over on the entrance to the other side of the street which is a long walk plus its raining and that time. Getting unpacked from the car we found the door would not open with that key,finding a cleaning woman I told her my problem and since she could not open the door she went back to the office and brought back another key. Upon opening the door we saw luggage throughout the room,had to walk back in the rain to the office and the woman gave us a key to 118,walking all the way back in the rain we entered 118 to find one single bed and a smoking room which we do not want-walking back to the office in the rain and getting very irriated with this mess the woman gave us a key to 105 which upon reloading are luggage and now unloading by the door in the rain we found that room was not only had luggage in it but also people sitting at the table,we were embarressed and mad at the stupidity that was going on and all the time it was still raining on all are luggage which became fairly wet during these moments.I went back to the office for a 3-4th time and told her to refund my credit card and how could you run such a sloppy motel(by the way a man who came in after me on my 1st time in the office ran thur almost the same problem as my wife and I did and they were in the office demanding thier money back when I went in for my last time.We were there about an hour and finally went up the street to the Budget Inn. Just thought you might be interested in the happenings of this Discovery Inn. Thank you- Terry and Andrea Healey from Bountiful Utah 84010--address and phone is 2099 south 850 east bountiful Utah and phone# is 801-298-8998

“Maid service?”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 August 2004

person found this review helpful

We stayed two nights. The first morning I went to the pool for a swim while my partner slept in. We had left at 5am the day before and was exhausted. A Woman upstairs came down the walk & yelled AREN'T YOU GUYS UP YET? IS EVERYONE STILL SLEEPING? I thought it was a rude guest in shorts, then later I saw her cleaning the rooms...SHE WAS THE MAID ! Very Rude! Not Professional at all.
