    Prices in Oregon are much higher than in Colorado, my home state. Not just in Astoria but state wide.

    Breakfast was just some granola bars. That seems to be the trend. Other places I stayed in Oregon had nothing. I am used to real breakfast in my area.

    Bathrooms could do with updating. A blind at the window would be good as only curtains so during the day people can look straight into the room.

    Loved the quirky 60s vibe. Friendly staff, comfy bed. Didn’t have the breakfast so can’t comment. Location ok. About a mile walk to historical district.

    A/C and parking

    Pastries and hot drink bar in the lobby was great. But the rooms were very clean and nicely decorated. But, nobody told us they had no A/C in the rooms. I recommend only going in the winter. The parking is limited. We parked next door, it was a bit inconvenient considering we had a whole family and a lot of stuff.

    There was a window in our shower which had a lot of moisture damage and had lots of bugs in the crevices. We also had an upstairs neighbor who put their boots on at 5am and seemed to be moving the furniture, lol. Not the motels fault, but vinyl flooring might not be the best choice for the 2nd floor.

    The nostalgic charm of this place is very cute. The staff were all very friendly, and the continental breakfast was nice. It’s definitely a bit run down, but was pretty clean. Beds were comfy and the room was nice and big.

    No air conditioning and I couldn’t get the water in the shower to stay at a good temperature. I guess it must have been hooked up with others taking showers. 🤷‍♀️

    It was close to the ocean. Quaint motel decorated in a 50’s style. The workers were all friendly and helpful. It had a refrigerator, microwave, fan and coffee maker. It had a small, but decent breakfast that didn’t start till 8:00 am. Room was clean, a little old.

    The bathroom shower tiles were very clean, but the bathtub itself seemed to need more attention. The linoleum floor in the bathroom needs replacing or fixing some. Would suggest more lighting by the coffee maker area. The main issue was the noise from a large garbage truck collecting dumpsters from the restaurant next door at 3 am on a Sunday night/early Monday morning.

    We like the 50's theme in the lobby and the cool red refrigerator, red mini-microwave and red coffee maker in our room. They all added to the atmosphere. The bed was comfortable, and the products, i.e. soap, hand cream, shampoo and conditioner were very good. The communication from the motel is one of the best I have ever experienced.

    The only thing that I can complain about was the water pressure in the shower, the toilet was really low to the ground, and when we were trying to watch a movie it kept buffering. But we weren't there to watch TV it was just on while I finished a project I was doing. The continental breakfast did not have much of a variety and seemed pretty bland.

    This was such the cutest little motel that I have ever seen.

    Parking lot was overflowing and tight. Would like a view of the water, but the price won out and I am still able to walk, so not a problem.

    Had everything we needed and no posh unecessaries that drive up the price. Location was convenient to food and highways with stroll across the road to the view and river walk. Staff was helpful and friendly. Clean!

    The bathroom was pretty small and the tub itself was dated. No AC. We slept comfortable but I work up feeling like it was damp without AC to dry out the air.

    Great location and clean and comfortable room. Delicious breakfast right next door.

    No air conditioning (there aren’t many days in Astoria where it’s needed) but a nice breeze and a box fan cooked the room well enough. Breakfast was either muffins or pop tarts with coffee or hot water-based drinks.

    The decor was nice and the room was clean.
