Thought the person-less, texted check-in was a little weird at first, but it actually worked really, really well. Checked in with me on text to ask if I needed anything, and answered any questions I had, like "Where is the...?" pretty quickly. Sauna! Hidden behind a secret door. Awesome surprise. Beautiful, huge cedar sauna that opened into attached private bathroom. Happened to be a gray day and I had it all to myself. That was a wonderful bonus. Room was quite small, but really cozy and pleasant style, felt more like an airbnb room than a motel. Beautiful wood work in the room, and locally made soaps and coffee instead of hotel chain usuals. Pretty lovely.

Overhead lighting could use a change up- kind of jarring. Some nice lamps in the room would be nice. Bigger coffee-maker! For anyone who seriously drinks coffee in the a.m., that little guy was way too little. Everything else was great.

This wonderful motel is a find! It's located right on a beautiful bay - and 5 minutes from Cape Disappointment State Park - which has some amazing views. The room was so comfortable and tastefully decorated. It has a great sea vibe and a comfortable bed, big bathroom, fun soaps. The motel is also quiet, and uses easy, contactless check-in. I wish I could have stayed a few more nights. Stellar motel that is so worth the price!

I noticed that the water temperature in my shower changed from hot to cold when someone else ran water - or at least that's my guess. Not a big deal.

The room was very clean and modern looking. I especially liked the contactless check-in experience, it made things very convenient. The location is great, right on the waterfront. Although we did not have a view, I spent a lot of time walking along the marina. The hotel is also in walking distance from the Discovery Trail if you want to hike or bike.

The parking is technically off-site, and unless you have the curtains closed all the time people walking by can stare straight in your room.

My daughter and I absolutely love this little Hotel We travel from Northern California to Lincoln city, Oregon for vacation several times a year but she always makes me include Astoria and she loves this hotel. The staff are super friendly and we feel like family when we arrive❤️

The only thing that would make this little hotel better is a bigger shower and better lighting in the bathroom. We still love it tho!

Breakfast not included. The food at the Salt pub is good. Salt is located on the wharf waterfront. Nice views, shops, walking. The rooms are small but contain everything you need with nice decor and efficient use of space. The building is u shaped surrounding a nice courtyard with fountain and quiet landscaping. The parking is across the street, very quiet location. Excellent location for a short stay in Ilwaco.

Nothing

The location by the harbour. We were able to access the headland walk for Cape Disappointment and Discovery Trail directly from the hotel. Plenty of parking opposite and interesting to see a working port with boat repair facilities. The only downside was the fact that due to staff shortages the pub for dining options is closed two nights a week. However, there are several other restaurants near Long Beach.

Super friendly and clean, it was clear that you take great care in making sure everything is just right for guests.

While I loved the concept and potential for variety of the vending machine, it wasn't stocked well and no prices for the items that were there. It was also a bit uncomfortable to have our window open to allow any breeze in the evening since our window was at the immediate top of the stairs, and everyone going up the stairs would have a direct view into our room

I loved staying here. The room was very modern and cozy while having a great beach vibe. It was nice to have the pub downstairs and everyone I interacted with was really great. I liked the contactless process and being able to communicate through text. So nice to have pet friendly accomodations! Everything was very clean and welcoming. I would definitely come back!

My only complaint was the shower. There was mold in the shower and it really looked like it needed a deep clean or a face lift.

The hotel and our room were Quiet, comfortable and relaxing

There was an issue of an upstairs room allocated after requesting and communicating that I couldn't climb stairs. Thankfully it was resolved quickly as the Pub was still open at 8:20 pm. We said we would arrive at 8:30, Thankfully we were early as the pub was closing and no staff wod have been at the hotel.

Cute, cozy room with all the basic amenities: coffee maker, fridge & microwave I liked the efforts toward sustainability: glass glasses, ceramic mugs, shampoo bar instead of little plastic bottles. Soap was from a local company. We ate a couple of meals in the attached pub: the food was wonderful, not too pricey & service staff was great.

A little noisy.. a family group had rented several of the rooms: did not respect the quiet hours & allowed their children to run wild about the place.
