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.

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.

Expedia should make proprietors aware of customers' specific requests so they can be responded to appropriately. We were disappointed our ground floor request couldn't be fulfilled and settled for 5 steps up at the rear.
