Very clean, friendly and check in was a breeze. The rooms are recently remodel and very comfortable. Highly recommend especially when the price was the most competitive in the area most places were over $100 dollars. And these rooms were genuinely very nice. Especially the tub took a nice hot bath before bed felt great after the long drive I had.

This is a motel, but the rooms are nice, updated and quite comfortable. They include a refrigerator and microwave for convenience. USB plugs on all the lamps and free wifi is adequate.

Would have liked coffee in our room instead of walking to office for it. I am handicapped, and both my husband and I are old.

First off, the woman at the counter was very kind and accommodating. The motel is recently remodeled; it looked and felt new. The location was great, close to stores and gas. Not far from downtown at all. The room felt more like a hotel room than a motel room, which we appreciated. It was very clean. We liked the energy saving feature of the room where you had to insert your key card to use lights as to not waste energy. Room was cleaned nicely for our second day. The room was also very quiet. Only downside is we wished there was a continental breakfast. Other than that, it’s a great place to stay for a night or two in a beautiful town.

Nicely remodeled rooms, very clean, newly painted outside, and ample parking. I loved the flowers that were in the front, and the roses in the back. The front desk staff (or owner?) was also very kind and accommodating. We will definitely be back when visiting Hood River again. Excellent value.

Clean and with attentive service. The rooms are a bit small but pleasant. Nice garden view. Super convenient location off Interstate 84 and close to shopping and chargers for my EV at Walmart right next door.

This place really saved my hide! My car broke down at night on the Interstate. They graciously allowed me to tow my car there for the evening. I was so tired, I could have slept in any room but the room was exceptionally nice and clean. Very comfortable bed. The gentleman at the front desk was very polite and accommodating. Would 100% stay again.
