I was in Bend for the weekend for a friends wedding and was on a budget. As a woman traveling alone, I was worried about the safety of a small, older inn like this one, but the Trip Advisor reviews were so good i figured I'd give it a shot. I wasn't let down.

It is, as one TA review I read, a bit like staying at your grandma's house, but I see that as a plus. It was cozy and inviting as opposed to being cold and institutional. If you're on a budget, or just want to try something different, give it a shot!

I tried to find a place in Sisters while on a low budget, but had to success. I stayed at Tom Tom due to the decent reviews and great price. I was satisfied and will happily stay again when hiking in the area once more.

Pros:
Inexpensive
Rooms have themes and great little snack tray
Although close to the highway, sound is minimal.
Staff was very friendly and helpful (lots of kitties to pet in lobby)
Rooms were clean.

Cons:
Rooms are very small, not great for kids or people who don't get along with one another :)
Wi-fi was sketchy and usually didn't work.
Don't remember a hair drier and small bathroom with little counter space.
If you have loud neighbors they might be easily heard through walls.

Just a great place for hikers and adventures who want to save money but still have a nice bed for the night.

I selected this motel due to all of the great reviews. I must admit, it did not meet my expectations. The office is messy and smells like cats (and I'm a cat person). I almost turned around and left based on the condition of the office alone. The room was much tidier and had a few personal touches. However the motel is really starting to show its age. There were notes taped everywhere about what "not " to do. The wi-fi did work. The TV was a nice size. The toilet backed up the very first day. I found someone to help, and he did fix it, but he told me if it happened again, to fix it myself and he showed me where the plunger is stored. That was not acceptable, especially since I did nothing to cause a toilet problem! You can walk through the parking lot to Sonic for a snack. The motel is on the outskirts of town, but it's only a few miles to drive to downtown.

Over the phone the owner sayd: dont expect the Ritz. We found a pleasant room, not new and not very large but pleasant, clean place and one could feel the personal care of the owner. RECOMENDED!!!
