Nice hotel in good area close to downtown. We loved keypad room entry with code instead of needing a key. The QR code list/menu for the nearby restaurants is a great guest addition. Unique, colorful decor was a fun touch too.

Really cool 50’s decor. Each room has its own art posters. Beds were comfy. Staff was very helpful. Breakfast was carb heavy but they did have home baked muffins and fruit was fresh.

Decent motel. There is no a/c in the rooms, only a box fan, which isn’t great when the area is having a heat wave. Mostly clean, with the exception of someone else’s hair in the bathtub.

This motel has a lot of retro personality which is fun! It's right by the waterfront in Astoria, so super convenient to the waterfront walkway. I just walked down to the main downtown area to get food and shopping.

We booked this hotel last minute. They sent us a text with all the information we needed to access our room since we were checking in after 9:00 PM. The motel is really cute and the rooms match the vintage vibe. The room had everything we needed and was pet friendly. They provided a cute welcome basket for the pups. Would stay there again!
