Booked the stay with book now pay on arrival option and when i arrived at motel and paid for room i discovered email from motel saying prob with payment method. I go to front office and ask what the issue was as money has come out of my account already. What manager told me was they tried twice to take payment at like 8am, 4hrs earlier than my arrival time which i wasnt happy about. Mamager hardly spoke English and didnt even say to us hope your stay with us is good, nothing just wanted the money. Pretty poor service wouldnt recommend staying here.

A quiet place to rest

We found the location very quiet. The hotel is in a small cul-de-sac off the main road.
The reception staff member was friendly.
The room was clean and offered the usual amenities you would expect. Mattress was a little firm but that is a personal preference.
Overall a good place to rest on a journey to Portland.

Wife and I touring on motorcycle. Very receptive and obliging hosts who were kind enough to let us check in several hours early. For the price the room exceeded our expectations. Great location just 2 minute walk to waterfront and private parking out of sight of traffic which is always reassuring for Harley owners.
