I stay here 4 times a year. Is just so comfortable. A beautiful view. And Jonny and Iamara are the most welcoming and friendly people! And they are very helpful too! They welcome me by my name! You will not regret staying here. And they have a great wintertime deal when you book direct!

Were it not for Hotels.com I wouldn't have considered this location. While there were a few issues with the room those did not deter from the evaluation. The room was very clean. Although it was one of the smaller options it provided a great space after a day of traveling.

Dana, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We had an incredible view of the Columbia River and The Dalles Dam. I loved the picture book in the lobby of Native Americans, of which Celilo falls where natives fished before the dam, is the namesake of the Inn.

Clean, comfortable room

Check in was quick, staff was very friendly. Didnt expect a large, non refundable pet deposit as it wasn't posted but at midnight, i was too tired to argue. Would stay again, very comfortable with a nice bed and room was clean.

In room A/C unit

The unit is too close to the bed. It blows right on the occupant. Switch the bed to the end where the TV is vice versa. It will be more comfortable whether it is summer or winter. Otherwise, out stay was great. Just couldn’t sleep.
Pat, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The staff was great, and my room was cozy and clean. Great choice for travelers on a budget. Only issue - the road into the property is in dire need of paving.
Lisa, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Initially unimpressed by old fashioned motel style. Didn’t realize The Dalles OR was such an industrial area. However it provided a decent place to stay with a very basic breakfast. Places for dinner were a couple of miles away.
