September 2, 2025MimirenaHorrified in John Day
8/29/25 While showering I noticed something in the shower drain. Upon closer inspection it appeared to be pet feces. Being a holiday weekend there was no manager onsite. The desk attendant, Dana, was apologetic and came & removed the feces while a housekeeper laughed. I have emailed the manager with no response as of today, 9/2/25

June 13, 2025Katie WA blessing in a stressful situation
Our car broke down an hour away from John Day and we hitched a ride to the closest hotel while our car was towed to a nearby shop. They had a room for us when I just walked in and let us have a late check out the next day while we waited on repairs. We ended up waiting even longer in the lobby with our 18month old daughter. The staff was so kind and friendly in a stressful situation. They offered my daughter toys, snacks and to change the tv channel for her. They were such a blessing to us and if we ever find ourselves back in John Day we will be back. The room was clean, air conditioned and safe. Exactly what we needed.

June 2, 2025Ctraveler12080823Tick in my room
I’ve stayed here for years during business travel and have never had an issue. However this time, there was a tick in my bed just underneath the fold of the blanket. To my horror I found this just as I was about to crawl into bed for the night. To their credit, the front desk associate was very understanding and immediately assisted me in switching rooms. It was “noted in my file” so that someone would discuss this with me upon checkout. No one made mention and I still ended up paying $200 for one night. I will not be staying here again.

Clean, friendly staff right on the main road.
Rooms were clean and spacious. It is just what you hope a hotel will be in a small town while traveling through or staying for a night or two.

Too expensive for location
This hotel was very expensive for the location. $366 for one night, very steep for the middle of nowhere. Plus there were items in the room that didn’t my work properly.
