The owners are helpful and friendly, the place was quiet, and your vehicle is visible from your room window. Older but clean motel, grocery store in walking distance and a dive bar next door...exactly what we were looking for.

The property was dirty with trash littering the walkways and parking area. The rooms were small with poor quality furnishings. I had reserved a king room but none was available. There were no suitable alternative rooms. The management refused to refund even a portion of my two day prepayment. Sleeping in the car would be preferable to staying at this motel.

I want to give these nice folks five stars. I can't, unfortunately. We rented two rooms for the night. The sink in one room doesn't drain fast. A cup of coffee was poured in an hour before we left and most was still in the sink when we locked the door. In the other room, the bathroom door latch is completely broken. You can see the latch mechanism plainly from the outside. The door needs replaced and the room probably shouldn't have been rented in this condition. Also, not a huge deal, but worth mentioning is that you can see daylight through the door jamb when the door is closed. The room felt as though it had been raided by police or otherwise broken into somewhat recently with the visible damage. All that being said, the folks that own the place are some of the nicest I've met in my travels. None of what I've mentioned is a dealbreaker for me and I absolutely would stay here again. My biggest issue was the bathroom latch, so if that's not a dealbreaker for you, go ahead and book this place. It's decent and worth the money paid for it. The owner just needs to do slightly better with maintenance.

We extended our trip from Utah one day longer to make a detour and see the Painted Hills o. Our way home to the Oregon Coast. We made a last minute reservation in John Day and chose this hotel. Check in was quick and easy and the gentlemen behind the counter was friendly…he even gave me some Lindor chocolates:) The room was clean and had a huge flat screen TV, super comfortable lounge chair and exercise bike! It’s a little outdated, but I could care less. I look for clean and comfortable and it was both!
