Very spacious room with good view.
Pros:

Big corner room with two windows. Comfy bed. Nice “suite” side with good couch. Sink separated from toilet/shower, very convenient for two people. Very pleasant front desk staff.

Cons:

Very thin, old bath towels. All night sea lions’ howls (they can’t help it but we were surprised). Room wasn’t serviced after first night. Towels weren’t changed.

Meh... Ask for Amy, shes what makes this hotel
Pros:

The room was beautiful, although nothing like the posted photos. The pull out bed for the kids was very much a pull out bed. No padding and a giant stain that was unidentifiable. The breakfast had actual cream cheese, so huge bonus there! However, keeping it stocked or clean was not a worry duting our stay. Very sad as the employees were in the back kitchen talking about nails... The view was amazing, the front office staff was a 10/10 (Amy thats you!)

Cons:

I got bit so much by some kind of bug.. on my hand, arm, leg, ankle, feet. Couple of them looked like mosquito bites and some of them I couldn't tell what kind of bug it was.

Pros:

Room was large and the bed was comfortable. The staff was kind. Location is very convenient to downtown Astoria. You can hear the sea lions from the room, but it didn't bother us. The hotel provides earplugs.

Cons:

Breakfast left a lot to be desired - it was a below average continental breakfast. You have to slam to room door to close it which isn't the safest.

Staff was great, I would stay there again because of them.
Cons:

Parking lot issues and inconsiderate other guests in contractor type vehicles made for difficult navigation on foot to access hotel entrances with luggage and handicapped wife.
