This is the cutest old fashion motor hotel I've seen in years. They have restored it to its glory days of the 1960s. It is cute, clean, and smells nice. The staff is wonderful. And the food next door at Pig n Pancake is fab.

This motel is just fine. Except if you are a light sleeper the street noise and the bridge noise kept us awake most of the night.

The staff was friendly and the room and bathroom were clean. The bed was not that comfortable and in showering, the water could go from hot to cold and vice versa without having touched the knobs. Seems like when people are using the water in their room, it affects the water temp in other rooms. I also wouldn’t mind being able to get into the office for breakfast a little before eight, say 730.

Overall simple room that met my needs. Parking was sometimes a little tricky and not near much food options without driving into town.

Super clean and great staff. Quirky decoration in the rooms was nice. Walls were a bit thin. We could hear our neighbors snoring but the front desk offers ear plugs. Overall great stay.

Disappointed in Astoria

This was supposed to be a great stay but unfortunately, it wasn’t. The heat in the room was on before we checked in and it never cooled off. There was mold in the bathroom and the place was not clean. We were upset and disappointed. We could not stay the second night and the hotel wouldn’t refund any of the second night regardless of the serious issues with the room. Mold is no joke.

Had a night with tweakers in adjacent rooms. Astoria took care of a traffic accident and someone acting crazy shortly after we checked in. Dirt under our bed...bathroom was pretty gross. I don't recommend
