July 19, 2026Jenny KNice hot tub is broken
Very friendly staff was clean and close to shops and restaurants gave it 3 stars because we purposefully booked it because it had a hot tub and when we arrived found out it was not working and hadnât been for awhile the check in attendant said they are trying to get it fixed this year⊠then told us it was hot out and we could just use the pool

May 31, 2026Veronica LTHE LAST GREAT MOTOR LODGE
This place is truly a hidden gem in Pendleton, Oregon. From the moment you arrive, you can tell this isn't just another motelâit's a family-owned and operated property where the owners genuinely care about every detail and every guest experience. The cleanliness is absolutely unmatched. Every room, hallway, common area, and outdoor space is spotless and meticulously maintained. It's easily one of the cleanest motor lodges we've ever stayed in. The pride of ownership shows everywhere you look. The hospitality is what really sets this place apart. The owners go above and beyond to make guests feel welcome, comfortable, and appreciated. You aren't treated like a room number hereâyou are treated like family. For travelers with pets, this is a dream destination. The property's beloved dog, Astro, adds an extra touch of warmth and charm that guests instantly fall in love with. Astro makes the experience even more memorable and welcoming. The amenities are exceptional. Guests can relax in the sparkling clean swimming pool, unwind in the sauna, and enjoy a peaceful atmosphere that makes it easy to recharge after a long day on the road. Everything is maintained to the highest standards. We've stayed at many places over the years, and when we come back to Pendleton, this is where we'll be staying. Out of all the lodging options available, we would choose this place again without hesitation. The combination of outstanding cleanliness, genuine hospitality, comfortable accommodations, and the care this family puts into their business makes it stand far above the rest. Whether you're passing through for one night or planning a longer stay, this motor lodge delivers an experience that is becoming harder and harder to find. The dedication and hard work of the family owners are evident in every detail, and it shows. We will absolutely be back, and we highly recommend this wonderful motor lodge to anyone visiting Pendleton. If you're looking for a place where you'll feel welcomed, comfortable, and appreciated, this is it. A true Pendleton treasure and one of the best places we've ever stayed. âââââ Five stars all the way.

Good Value for Nicely Updated Old School Motel
This is an updated old school motel. As such, donât expect elevators and big fancy lobbies. That said, it is a good value. Where can you find a room for under $100 these days that are up to date and clean. The bathrooms are functional albeit a little small. There are unique features like cord-cutting TV and an adult or non-alcohol libation at check-in. We stayed there on a Monday and it was quiet. I thought it might be a little noisy since the windows are single pain. Another reviewer said the HVAC was noisy but I thought it was quieter than most after I set the fan to low speed. Super helpful and pleasant staff both at check-in and check-out. We werenât there long enough to try the pool and the hot tub looked empty of water.
