Off the beaten path.

This hotel is slightly off the freeway but well worth the effort. They are reasonable, clean and friendly. The bed and pillows are comfortable. I slept 7.5 hours last night. They also have a variety of breads and cereal for breakfast.

We stopped for a quick overnight on our journey home and we loved staying here! Very clean and comfortable. Our room had a queen bed and a fold out double couch bed, perfect for our little family. The innkeeper was incredibly friendly and helpful and made sure to keep the breakfast items stocked when we saw us come in. We would definitely stay here again!

Plus: Older but well-maintained in and out. Decor is rustic country style, not the typical hotel furniture, but kind of nice. The A/C worked well, and the room was clean and quiet. A firm mattress ensured a good night’s sleep. Wifi and TV were good. I appreciated the charger outlet device. The staff was friendly, and parking was good. Breakfast options were better than I expected: yogurt, cereal, bagels, muffins, cream cheese, fresh fruit, hard-boiled eggs, hot beverages & juice. The breakfast area was nicely decorated, and the chairs and tables were clean & comfy. It’s obvious the owners have tried hard to provide a nice experience. They actually use metal keys, a throwback to simpler times. Minus: The toilet seat was worn, paint had given way to the wood underneath; however, the rest of the place is in good shape and I would stay here again.

This is my third stay at this charming, slightly funky hotel in Pendleton. I totally sleep like a log here; trains don’t seem to matter but the bed is very comfy, nice lighting. Very clean and bright. If you stay on the 2nd or 3rd level there’s a nice view of the hills beyond the Umatilla River. I bring my own food so make good use of the refrigerator and microwave. Love the Riverwalk which we (my dog and I ) walk to to stretch our legs before settling in this cozy hotel.

Our group arrived on motorcycles and parking was excellent. Our bikes were safe and the staff gave us towels to clean them after a long day of riding. Check in was seamless. The breakfast was nice and lots of options; nothing special but adequate for us. The room was clean and furniture antiquated and pretty cool. Plenty of towels and toiletries were available. The staff gave us dining options and we chose a brewery within walking distance. The food was excellent. I would definitely recommend this property and would stay there again.
