I checked in around 10:30 PM and was greeted by a very kind and welcoming family. They were courteous, efficient, and friendly, and made sure I knew where to park and helped guide me to my room. I would definitely stay here again. The price and comfort were a tremendous value and exceeded my expectations. Easy access to/from the freeway.

Room was clean yet too clean, smelled of bleach/ disinfectant. The TV wasn’t working properly: the volume control on the remote was not working, the microwave turntable wasn’t turning. Staff friendly, facility in good area, away from traffic yet local enough to browse shops & restaurants.

The room was very clean and modern for an older building. The beds were very comfortable and room quiet considering how close we were to train tracks. I was surprised I did not hear my neighbors which was a bonus. The Staff were very nice and efficient during our check in. I felt very safe and comfortable walking to dinner which was close by. The surrounding neighborhood was older but very well maintained. I would recommend and definitely stay again if I’m in the area.

It was clean. Lady at desk was a little short with me. Also, didn’t understand why I had to come back in the morning & wait for them to check my room before she would refund my deposit. Not a huge deal but we did wait til last minute to leave so waiting on that made me late for next event

Check in staff was great! Rooms are very tiny with no AC :( The lobby isn't always available and the staff answering the phone for help was rude and outright disrespectful. We ended up going somewhere else and did not extend our sta.

I grew up in The Dalles early’60s this motel was there then and very little signs of updates, in fact I don’t think over half of it was in service. But it was quiet safe clean enough; most people are not likely to spend more than one night perfectly adequate for that.

Loud because it’s on a busy street with particularly lousy insulation. You get what you pay for. Bed was good and it did have a microwave, frig, coffee pot and toaster oven.

The owners were very nice and friendly, for what they offer in a motel it was nice and accomidating to my needs and wants during my stay there. The area they are located in I'm not too sure about but there was a lady every evening screaming random things on the street.... that's beyond their control though. If you're looking for a psh to just rest your head n go shoot your business the next day this is a good place with great prices! I took videos not pictures unfortunately, but the bathroom was nice :) and the rooms were comfy.

A bit scary from the outside but the room was clean and updated. I couldn’t get the tv to work so a guide would have been helpful. Perfect for the price.
