Grungy looking room. Could not understand front desk person's broken english. Did not feel safe when we arrived after dark. We did not stay here, even though we had previously paid. We went a block away to the BW Plus. Great room & great breakfast!

The manager was super kind and helpful when we arrived. My son and I got in late and he upgraded our queen bed to a king out of the kindness of his heart, free of charge! I slept so well in that bed that I did not want to get out of it. The room was very clean. I highly recommend for anyone to stay here.

A 1960’s type motel. Shower and stool are the bathroom like an RV, no tub. Take a shower while setting on stool if you want. TV channels listed on paper are not what is available on screen. Otherwise comfortable for what it is and costs

A very pleasant place at Motel 6 prices!

Just a warning: In Cascade Locks, not Columbia Gorge Locks. Very kind staff. I had to spend a day in bed. They checked on me. Anything you need? Yes, ice and any food you have in the lobby. They brought me 2 huge pieces of pizza. God Bless! Weird mattress. Don't know if it a consistent throughout the motel. Plus, I'm heavy. More comfortable if 75# lighter. I was in room 15.

The owner was amazing and very helpful. The motel is on the older side, but we were not spending anytime there but to sleep, so it did not bother us.

Proprietor was great- super friendly, although bit of a language barrier, but very accommodating. Room was fine, looked clean, but bad smell- almost sewage smell.
