But what really makes this place special and different from other venues are the owners. John and Juanita are the absolute best! So accommodating, laid back, generous, fun, etc. I can't say enough about them and how easy they were to work with. Talk about low-stress planning. They made everything easy and fun for us. We all like them so much that we are trying to figure out what else we can book at their venue just to see them again! The upstairs area for getting ready is huge and great for on-site hair and makeup and pre-game photos. Lots of fun props up there. I feel like Capitol City Barn will quickly become the premier venue in Olympia with these wonderful people at the helm. You will NOT be disappointed!

I made my way inside because another friend recommended the wine flight and some savories and I had fun chillling in the shady indoors, listening to the music. What a cool venue!

The wine is just average - we did like the white reisling and the malbec, and the port was also good. We ordered the trail mix which is actually a small charcuterie plate. The crackers were stale. The music was KZOK radio (Seattle). Rock and roll did not fit the beautiful decor. So it's kind of a mixed bag. But go see the saloon and beautiful light fixtures.

Built in 1928, the 7th Street Theatre is a local treasure. In its early years, it hosted vaudeville…read moreacts and became the very first theatre in Washington to present "talkies." In 1987, the theatre was successfully listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The interior of the theatre itself is a glorious example of an "atmospheric" theatre. Instead of the bland curtain covered walls of modern theatres, here, you are transported through architectural elements and ornamentation to a Spanish courtyard under an evening sky. Periodically, the theatre presents classic movies. I was able to attend a showing of The Goonies, and while I already have this in my personal movie collection, getting the chance to see it once again on the big screen for the first time since 1985 was too tempting to pass up..."Goonies Never Say Die!" There are fewer than 50 Atmospheric Theatres left in the entire world. If you ever get a chance to attend a movie or live performance at this one, do yourself a favor and go to the show!

Glass chandeliers and string lights line the ceiling beams and large log rounds and iron work form the railings leading to two grand staircases ending at the stage.

It feels like a refrigerator over there. - The work suitable tables are in the poorly lit areas, while the downstairs front areas with better lighting are dedicated to narrow high benches with virtually unusable tall metal chairs. In short, whoever did the interior design was thinking in visual terms and not about ergonomics. The latte was OK, not bad but nothing special. The music, when I was there, was insipid. OK if you like 2010s auto-tuned teen pop and country I suppose.

It is very accessible from Portland and the drive there is beautiful, and when you arrive at your destination you immediately feel at peace. Brian and Linda do a great job of making you feel welcome. We brought our own snacks and had a picnic in the gazebo and enjoyed the view of the river, which is so wide at that point that it almost gives the visual of being at the ocean as ships rolled by. We stayed in the Hummingbird Room which has a very comfortable bed and a wonderful view out of the window. The rates are very affordable and include breakfast - Brian is a great cook and they offer several meal options. We added the firewood package and were so glad we did, as I type this I wish I could be back there next to the fire while looking at the river. They only have two rooms so if you went with some friends you would have the whole place to yourselves. This really is a hidden gem and I highly recommend making the trip while you can.

I don't enjoy leaving negative reviews, and I want to start by saying that every employee I dealt…read morewith was polite and courteous. The room was also clean when we arrived, the price was reasonable, and the location was convenient. We especially loved having the Fishing Hole restaurant next door -- breakfast there was excellent. There were, however, a few things that made the stay less comfortable than I would have hoped. The motel is directly beside the train tracks, and trains continued running into the evening, including after 10 p.m. Because they have to sound their horns when coming through, I was woken up more than once. Obviously the motel can't control the trains, but it is something light sleepers should be aware of. Laundry was another issue. We were told the motel laundry had been damaged in a fire a couple of months earlier and had not yet been repaired. We were directed to the laundry facility at the camper/RV area next door, which is not affiliated with the motel, but unfortunately those machines were also out of service. For a longer stay, not having a reliable way to do laundry was inconvenient. The other concern was housekeeping. During our stay, the room was not serviced unless we specifically went to the office and requested it. We had to ask for fresh towels and washcloths, trash removal, and bedding changes rather than having those things handled routinely. Overall, the room itself was clean, the staff was pleasant, and the price was reasonable, so I feel three stars is fair. I just think future guests, especially those planning a longer stay, should be aware of the train noise, laundry situation, and the need to request housekeeping.

No Art, tiny wall tv. The Wi-Fi password is beyond complicated. I ll just go cell. Trains and announcement horns a block away. Hope it's only a couple tonight. Last one was a 1/2 hour ago. It will do but I wouldn't send family here. Update: The train runs behind the hotel. Maybe every 4 hours. And since there is a crossing with no guards the horn blow is long and slow. We won't be back.
