This was an amazing hotel to stay at! If you are looking for clean rooms, walkable places, and easy check in and outs, this is the place! Just a literal 1 minute walk to the beach and coffee shops and great ambiance at all the dining locations!
We liked how close it was to the beach, shops, and restaurants. Truly a super location! There was ample parking. Also, the room was spacious, well-appointed, and confortable. We liked the friendly staff plus the easy checkin and checkout process.
Front desk was great, room was clean. Only thing keeping this from being a 5 star was no screens on the windows - we like having windows open for the breeze and hearing the ocean. All else was great.
Good location. Walking distance for anything including the main office. Laundry is coin op and machines seemed old and unclean. Room was clean and smelled clean. In the heart of town/shopping, 5 min walk to the beach.

Cozy rooms, nice staff. Spotty WiFi, but if you’re on your electronics a lot while you’re staying at cannon beach then you’re doing it wrong!
Loved our flagship room with the ocean view. My daughters and I were on a girls’ trip. No complaints-it was a wonderful stay. The staff was friendly and very accommodating. The suite was stocked well with everything we needed for making meals and the fireplace in the room was wonderful. I highly recommend this place for anyone who wants a peaceful retreat with amazing views of an iconic beach.
Love this property! Location is fabulous, everything you need and more… is walkable! The view and the beach is everything! This was my second trip to this same property, even got the same room!
We loved our stay so much we had to book another stay for the future. Our room had so much natural light and with the ocean views it was magical. The staff at the front desk are also all very kind and lovely.
Really nice and private with a view of the ocean, yet close to many eateries and shops. The gas fireplace and tv worked flawlessly. There was a 2 burner electric top and pots and pans in excellent condition, although we didn't use them. The small fridge worked well although it did not have a small freezer section which would have been handy.
