Clean rooms even though a bit dated. The complimentary breakfast was perfect and everything was quiet so we slept great. My only complaint was that it was difficult to open the bathroom door once you closed it and I thought I might have to sleep in there when I couldn't get it open in the middle of the night! Overall 4 out of 5 stay and definitely cant beat the price!

Convenient location in Goldendale. Friendly staff. I enjoyed the layout of the queen suite. Obviously pet friendly room, as there was dog hair throughout the unit and nose prints on the window.
