Best WLM Reviews

This is a lovely hotel tucked away off a main road north of Astoria. It sits on a bluff overlooking the Columbia River and most of the rooms have a beautiful view of the river. The room was large and clean. The free breakfast was very good and the breakfast room was large. There's a hot tub an a nice seating area around a firepit. It was very quiet. We would definitely stay here again.
2nd visit to this motel in past year. Older but very clean. The view and hot tub were great. My only compel was the bed was super soft and very uncomfortable. Have never been to a motel with that soft of mattress. Probably won’t stay again since a good night sleep is important to us.
Great place. Room was nice enough. staff was cordial enough. Hot tub was awesome. Breakfast was great!
Not sure what all those one star reviewers were expecting; but I'm absolutely gonna stay here again.
Our second visit here. The view is spectacular. You can watch the ships navigate the river. They serve a good breakfast to enjoy while viewing the river. Enjoy an evening dip in the outdoor jacuzzi. The rooms are clean and provide everything. A short trip to any destination in the Astoria area.
Overpriced, dirty and uncomfortable. We were traveling with our family of 5 and decided to "splurge" on the family suite so that we would have room for all of us. That was a waste. There weren't enough beds for us and when I asked for a rollaway bed, they said it would be an additional $15 for the night. After already spending MORE($200) for the room with no view, but was advertised as the "Family Suite" I expected it to actually have the amount of space a family needs. Not require me to pay an additional fee to actually provide what we needed.
Not to mention, the floor felt like I was walking on sand from the moment we stepped in. When my daughter took a shower, the bath mat sat on the floor for 5 minutes and was black. Not to mention I found stained and dirty towels under the bed that were covered in cobwebs and spiders - who knows how long they had been there.
The room itself had paneled walls like in a trailer park home and I felt like I had paid $200 to stay in trailer.
I would not normally give a 1 star review as I try to give the benefit of the doubt, but when I emailed the manager to voice my concerns, I got absolutely no response, so because the lack of customer service was so poor as well, I am giving it 1 star. I would never go back and I would never recommend this motel to anyone.
Which is very disappointing, because the reviews were overwhelmingly good. I do not share those opinions.
Great time here spending a weekend in Astoria, Seaside etc. Check-in and check-out was easy and staff were helpful, chatty and kind.
Room was dingy but in a charming small town way. Clean and comfortable. Comfy bed and hot water in the shower.
Exceptionally quiet and lovely views. We didn't get river views cause wife and I were in a room off to the side, but still pretty tree views.
Hot tub was clean and toasty and motel is very close drive to downtown and through neighborhoods.
Only dropping a star for 2 inconveniences. One is that the Wifi and television only worked half the time. Wifi constantly cut out and we didn't have much data service with our provider, so we didn't get great internet use when winding down in the room for the evenings. Tried to watch basketball on the TV and it often cut out entirely, which isn't necessarily the motels fault but still kinda bummed me out.
Also, the room got pretty stuffy and warm to sleep in, and that was in late October. I can imagine that no AC could bother people in the middle of the summer (box fan was provided).
Long-winded review but overall would recommend this motel and if we return to the coast will likely be staying here again.
The nice things about this motel is the staff is friendly, everything is clean, the checkout time is noon, and breakfast end time is 10:00.
The unfortunate things about this motel is:
Location is far from downtown and ride share is forbidden in this town, so you have to use crummy overpriced cabs that are smoked in, and takes too long to arrive. Why business in this town push to forbid ride share to preserve a couple crummy cab companies doesn’t make sense to me.
Breakfast is all carbs. Muffins, waffles, cereal, yogurt and oatmeal isn’t the greatest selection.
Rooms. This place is very outdated. It hasn’t been renovated since the 90’s. While the rooms are clean it would seem that they would make at least some effort to update the motel, but that is how they keep the prices low.
I would stay here again if it wasn’t for the location. If you don’t intend on going out and needing a ride this will be ok for you, unless you don’t mind paying $25 each way to go into town in a smoke filled cab.
This is a lovely little motel with killer views, but the service is sorely lacking. It was the worst check-in I have had in many years of traveling. The front desk person was new, and although her manager was supposedly on call, she was by herself and there was a line of exasperated guests lined up waiting to check in. I hope this was an anomaly because I really like the vibe of this place. It’s not fancy, but it’s comfortable, clean, and has a hot tub and good breakfast selection. And did I mention the views?!
