The bad part is that the property is kind of hard to get to. Having said that, the staff was very friendly and helpful. My view of the Columbia River was great. The breakfast was simple but very good. I would stay there again when i would visit The Dalles again.

Don

Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort
My issue isn't the average quality of the accommodations, it's that the reviews I read grossly overrated what I expected, exceptional, wonderful, ahh No! Just know that if you choose to book here expect your average dated motel, I give this motel a 2 star at best, you get what you pay for. Fairly clean, typical breakfast (yuck), crappy coffee. We have all experienced this kind of motel, just know what you're getting. Also know that you are near an interstate that you will enjoy hearing all night long.
