Kitchen was great with bars needs meet. Coffee in room was good. View was amazing from balcony. Clean room everything felt a bit old but it was well worth the money
The Expedia site when booking was not clear on amenities. It did not state as much, but the room had refridgerator and microwave. There is a pool open 9 am-9 pm all year. Beach access is a building away - not as doable on high tide but there is lots of beach access elsewhere in Lincoln City. The room has a great ocean view. We'll definitely get out there again.
Lots of friendly frequent flyers. Great ocean views on the lower level with direct access to the beach. Really had everything we would need for a longer stay
We’ve been coming to this place for years and love it! It’s great for families as well and our kids love it here. The pool area is always fun for everyone. The front desk staff has been here for years and has always been amazing. Would recommend.

Loved being close to the beach; affordable and will visit again.
The motel front desk lady was nice and warmly welcomed us. We were here early and were allowed to use the beach access since we had reservations. Check-in is easy. The building is newly painted and the rooms have been re-done. The shower is roomier and is tall enough for over 6ft. The bathroom mirror lights are pretty cool.
