Low quality for high price!
Pros:

Restaurant on location and great restaurant staff!

Cons:

Misleading room description on booking. Old facility with bad towels, small room and high cost. Could have gotten a much nicer room at Comfort Inn for a lot less. We booked this hotel to enjoy a nice facility with a view of the river and better quality, but were very disappointed!

read above
Pros:

lots of parking

Cons:

staff members was drunk and encouraged her dog to attack myself, daughter and my dogs. She said wasn't that cool, 3 times. So she thought her dog attacking mine was cool. She's dam lucyk I didn't beat her dog with my daughters crutch. . There were two other feral dogs running around, chasing other guests dogs and constatnly begging and pestering guests. It's really funny when the hotels mascot attacks guests dogs. I rented two rooms for $500 and that's that treatment I get?? Everyone should know my experience. I own a large business in The Dalles and I treat my guests way better than you and everyone should know how you really are.
