The customer service at check-in and breakfast was excellent. Convenient to downtown restaurants. This is an older hotel, refurbished. We discovered a disabled fire alarm in our room (battery out, wires hanging down.)

Well kept motel on a hill above the Columbia River. Motel staff was great, room was comfortable and had everything we needed. Breakfast was decent and breakfast room has a beautiful view. Four stars because of the freeway noise.
