As promised the Rugged Country Lodge had very clean rooms, bathrooms, instant hot water, great beds, & plenty of pillows! The staff was very helpful, letting us check in at 11:30am on the day we arrived for our conference. Rooms were quiet and fairly sound proof. We turned on the fan for ambient noise and slept through the night. Breakfast... More

In reading the website and some older reviews I possibly expected more from this hotel than I got. On the plus side the room was clean, the beds were great, there was a hair dryer in the hallway and the towels were fluffy. On the minus side the dogs in the neighboring yard were terribly noisy and the breakfast was... More

I read about this hotel style B& B online and the story of its salvation and restoring by the nice Oregon Lady was just charming. When we arrived, we experienced her delightful, immaculate touches everywhere but the place has been sold to people that seemed surly or fake -happy. Little things in the description, like homemade cookies to welcome us,... More

Stayed one night with family during road trip. Room was very clean, warm, beds were comfortable. Felt like rooms had been updated recently. The price was great, maybe because it was off-season. The staff were very friendly. Downsides were minor: located on east end of town, several blocks from downtown. Immediate neighborhood felt a bit dodgy, though we did not... More

My mother and I were making a trip through the area to do some family history research. We didn't want to spend a lot of money but still wanted a nice place in a safe area. This was a great choice. They were very hospitable and friendly and treated you like family. I was 8 months pregnant and they were... More

We chose to stay at this motel based on TripAdvisor ratings, and we weren't disappointed. We were driving to and from British Columbia and stayed here both times we passed through Pendleton. We have small children, and I wanted to stay somewhere that would be easy to get our baby gear in and out of. Ideally, we would be in... More

This was our second time to stay at the Rugged Country Lodge. The room was neat and clean, and the bed and pillows were very comfortable. The bathroom was absolutely spotless! We were in a room which faced the street, and found that it was not as noisy as I had anticipated. I had set the heater at a temp... More

The rooms are clean but a bit dated. The main drag is right outside and the cars and trucks are very noisy. The motel was almost empty but the front office chose to put a guest directly over us which didn't help with the noise.... beds are comfortable but noise is a problem. Rate was fair.

The room was clean and neat, the staff was friendly, and I slept like a baby. The waitress at the diner recommended this hotel and I am glad we listened to her. Everything was nice and relaxing. We'll stay here again.
