A great value, convenient access to highways, surprisingly nice view of the Dalles Dam and area. Clean, tidy, appropriate features for the price and a decent breakfast. Would certainly stay there again.

Friendly staff, decent breakfast, good bed. Noisy from Highway. Trucks were really loud and our room smelled like pot. 😉. I’m not sure if it was due to room itself or the house that was right in front of & below our room! Carpet had some spot issues.

Over & Above Expected

We had a very pleasant stay with the management very friendly and helpful over and above all our expectations. The view of the locks & dam on the Columbia River from nearly every unit is exceptional.

Location location. This property has such an outstanding view of river, dam, city scape and sunset that it becomes a destination in itself. Comfort bed in nice room with said view. Small breakfast nook with standard continental breakfast fare. Outside seating area with great views. Driveway potholed and jarring. This likely keeps speeds down to the benefit of the homes along the down hill side

The view was spectacular, unbeatable for the price. The area has many breweries which makes for great food options as well as drink. We have always wanted to stay at one of the mid century modern inns along the lip of the gorge, and we checked that box in the most modern, comfortable, clean room we could have imagined.
