Easy check-in and out. Clean and comfortable. The weather didn’t cooperate so we didn’t get down on the beach like we planned. The one thing that stood out for me was the fact that there were “2” comfortable chairs to sit and lounge in. In most rooms for 2 there is one chair and the other person is left to lounge on the bed or sit in a hard kitchen type chair.

What a little hidden gem! Peggy the manager was super friendly and helpful. The room was beautiful! Clean, comfortable, and so nicely decorated. The room had a lovely cabin feel, with open beam ceilings and real wood finishes. Although it was billed as a partial ocean view, room #3 had a wonderful south, south west vista and a large deck for excellent wave watching as well. The huge king bed in the bedroom was exceptionally comfortable and cozy. I only have one minor critique and that is that better lighting is needed in the living room. I will definitely stay here again and hopefully for longer.

What a fantastic location! It is great being in such a quiet stretch of 101, with no other lights in sight. It makes for great sky gazing! The room was unique, the kitchenette was great to have when there aren't restaurants right outside. My absolute favourite thing was being directly on the beach with portholes to open and let the sound in without too much cold air, the beds had down pillows and a comforter that was cloud-like, and the hot water is boiling and never seems to end!

Room was very nice and clean with full kitchen well stocked with implements, comfy sofa and armchair. Bed excellent. Plenty of storage shelves and drawers. Great extended stay location. Fantastic views of the ocean and Yaquina lighthouse. If this place got any closer to the ocean it would be in it. Water pressure is a bit low though so showers take time. The sliding door to the deck needs fixing as my wife was unable to move it. However these are nitpicks.
