Love to stay at the Ruby when attending concerts at the Fox, Bing, or Knitting Factory because it is just so convenient. Staff is always wonderful, rooms are comfortable, and I like the sapphire lounge there. I will keep coming back as long as it maintains this level.

Charming Downtown Hotel
We loved our stay at Hotel Ruby. Check-in was smooth and the room was fine. Located in Downtown Spokane and surrounded by numerous restaurants. The area was plenty safe and easy to walk. We would definitely stay again at this charming downtown hotel!

You get what you pay for
The room is very small with the air conditioner right next to the bed. It was windy all night with it on and hard to sleep next to. The toilet is so small you can hardly sit on it. The office person (young lady) was very nice but the age of the facility and quality of the room made the stay unbearable. We were going to stay three nights but cancelled the next two nights due to these issues.

No thank you
I checked in to my room and within 10 minutes, I wanted to be at another hotel. It was loud, traffic noise is persistent and I could hear the guest next door. I called hotels.com to ask if I could go elsewhere. But they talked to the front desk for me and I was moved to a room that was quieter though there was still the noise. I should have known that a place with an "upgrade to a soundproof room" option that this place isn't one to relax in. And my room had earplugs on the side table. Not a great sign! Amenities were sparse. One body towel and so many hand towels. One trash can, no recycling. If you're a hard sleeper and just want to be unconscious for a night, this might be a good fit. The parking is an absolute joke. I can't even believe they're charging for it.
