The room was really clean and had the best view of all the hotels that I've stayed in over the past 9 years after retiring from the Air Force. The managers were extremely friendly and very nice.
I have two complaints though:
1) The road noise. I understand that there's nothing to be done about this, but it needs to be mentioned as it often (during the day anyway) drowns out the sound of the waves (when there are any) crashing on the rocks! Hey, when you go to the beach THAT'S to be expected!
2) The rooms don't have AC! I understand, it's Oregon and it doesn't get THAT hot (most of the time) at the beach. BUT, when it does and you need fresh, cool air to sleep at night, then you have to open the windows (in this case a sliding glass door). Problem: I'm a NON-SMOKER and the room next door is a SMOKING room and since the rooms have balconies, the smokers go out there smoke and it wafts into the adjoining room (OURS)!
It was my understanding that since Oregon passed that no smoking in public places, mainly buildings, that it also included Hotels. Maybe it's voluntary, I don't know, BUT putting smoking next to non-smoking rooms isn't cool!
We had a chain smoker in the room next to us and it was BAD!
However, other than those two things, it was a VERY NICE room!
