We stayed there because they have a handicap pool that my father wanted to use. We told them this when we called and they failed to tell us the pool was empty and under construction. We even all got dressed for swimming - put my father in a bathing suit and went to the front desk to ask about the pool (towels in hand) and they told us how to get to there but never mentioned it was CLOSED - We would have rented the 3 rooms at another hotel for my father’s 80th birthday had we know.

We had no idea when we booked this hotel that it had a truck stop on both sides and a train that ran behind. We thought it might not work for us. But it was quiet enough at night not to disturb us at all. The indoor pool was a bit cooler than I expected but was immaculately clean. The hot tub was wonderful.

It would've been nice to know the pool was under maintenance. We picked this place because of the pool. The room also has been well used (trim coming off, stains, etc)... I expected it to look better than it did. The stay met our needs in the end. We just expected better than what we got. We probably will not stay here again.

The room we stayed in had a water leak and had a strong mold smell and water seeping around the bottom of the toilet. The room is also across from the maintenance office and an air compressor would go off every 30 minutes or so. The hotel was sold out so there was no other rooms available to be moved to.

We stayed overnight to see sites in the area. I would not choose to stay here multiple nights. The floor in the entryway to our room was sticky and we cleaned it ourselves. The air conditioner / heater was extremely loud - to the point that it kept us awake during the night. Staff was pleasant and the breakfast offered options. The area was not comfortable for walking around.

I called from New York, looking for a room for my son and daughter-in-law due to the power outages and ice storms and from the very first moment that they answered the phone they were wonderful and accommodating. Luckily they had rooms available and my son and daughter-in-law stayed there for a few nights, and it was just perfect for what they needed and only within 10 minutes of where they live, we were able to get some documentation emailed back-and-forth for Credit Card authorizations and unfortunately I forget the woman’s name but she was wonderful. Thank you so much.

Location

Convenient for the Columbia River Gorge, Edgefield, and freeway access. However, the hotel sits between truck stops with a hard-to-find one-way entrance, and some guests felt the area was not ideal for walking or could be noisy.

The hotel itself was really nice— clean and updated. The staff was friendly and helpful. The area directly around the hotel left something to be desired. While it’s within walking distance to a lot of things we wanted to visit (McMenamin’s Edgefield, the outlet mall, and the food cart pod), it didn’t feel entirely safe or pleasant to walk there. There are large, busy truck stops right next to the hotel on both sides, and a bramble-covered property next to a railroad right behind. Nevertheless, because of the convenient location and quality of the hotel itself, I would stay there again— as long as I wasn’t alone.

AC in room didn't work. Weekday morning breakfast was horrible. Pancake machine was shooting out dime size pancakes. The morning person wasn't checking things. We found her and she just turned the machune off instead of fixing the problem. Most of the food was cold. We went up to our room and the elevator stopped on the second floor to let housekeeping off. There was a beer can laying on the floor as she got off the elevator. She looked at it and kept on walking. Very disappointed.
