A bit dated. The coffee station is not replenished with a fresh pot until after staff comes in approximately at 9 am. You must ask for shampoo and cream rinse at check as it’s only provided upon request. Could upgrade the matresses sometime.

Oregon Women's Club Antique Show stay.

Very nice hotel with two restaurants on site. Waitress and staff super friendly. Country setting five minutes to town. This was our second year staying and will do so in the future. Highly recommend.

Not A Great Value

The room was very clean. The bathroom was very small and the tub was slippery. I almost fell twice. There was no rubber mat. There was no shampoo or lotion. There was a note to let the front desk know if any was needed, but the front desk closed at 8 before I took my shower. No one warned us the front desk closed at 8. Also, when we came back from dinner, after the front desk closed, my husband's room key didn't work. Thankfully, I had mine and we were able to get into the room. I think for the $100 we paid it was not a great value. There was no breakfast. Two plusses; the restaurant across the parking lot was excellent and we could see the setting by the river is picturesque, although we did not have a river view room.

Quick Work Trip Gem

Found myself in Oregon for work and needed a last minute stay. The staff was welcoming and the establishment was quaint - I stayed in the single double sweet. The street was quiet in the evening. Highly recommended for a stay.

Basic but very clean and well-maintained

Rustic, pretty basic, but very clean and well-maintained, quiet, staffed only 9-9 so make sure you have anything you need before they leave, decent WiFi, decent coffee always available in breakfast room (no in-room coffee pot), bathroom and shower in good shape and very clean, no maid or cleaning during your stay, so it’s basic but super clean, no bugs, smells or gross carpet
