Misrepresented actual room booked.

On arrival we discovered that Hotels.com had misrepresented the room I booked. I booked and paid for a room with a river view, King bed and a double pull out sofa. The room booked had no view and had 2 queen beds. This was horrible for our sleeping needs. And made for an uncomfortable, sleepless night. When I book a hotel, I am careful to book accommodations that will be comfortable for everyone in the group. I won't use Hotels.com again. They really let me down. The hotel was very nice! I would love to stay there again.

Lovely updated room, clean and spacious. The hotel has a mid-century modern vibe, which is fun and hip. There are several buildings, so indoor connections to the lobby and fitness center are a bit maze-like. The lobby is beautiful and welcoming.

A classic 20th century resort hotel, 0Valley River Inn has been one of our favorite lodgings. Located near major shopping, next to a scenic river, and a short drive from the center of Oregon's second largest city. The staff have been friendly, helpful, and professional.
