Oregon Trail Motel

Will never stay here again, they charge a deposit whether you pay in cash or card then upon check out you can't find anyone to get deposit back. A/C unit was made in 1980s and did not work. After 100 degree day, the room was a sweat lodge. Even with door and window open all night room did not cool off. I barely slept...

The price? Ouch. But, when traveling with family and needing room to sleep and toss all night, this is a great place for that. You get the experience of being transported to an older time and enjoy the past. The room still had all the amenities of a normal room, maybe even more. And the beds slept great.

Our room at the Oregon Trail Motel was very well worn but clean. The first thing I do in a hotel is turn back the comforter and then have a good look at the sheets, as well as the bathroom, before we move into it, and it was all acceptable. Everything was clean - but very well worn. The furniture is decades old, but the bed was clean and comfortable. We had a non smoking room and it did not smell of smoke. We had hot showers and used the fridge overnight for the stuff we carry in a cooler on our motorcycles. The Internet access was great. Our room was facing oh-so-busy SE 2nd street, but we wore earplugs, so we weren't disturbed. We put a special lock on the bikes for safety, since they were so visible to the busy road but not the hotel office. An easy but scary walk to downtown the next day, under the railroad tracks, took us to a really great coffee shop. It was just somewhere to spend the night on our journey, and it was fine, but nothing special. Our room had an ice bucket but no where to get ice.

Pros - rooms were clean , beds and pillows were comfortable Cons - It is located on a busy intersection so some rooms can be a bit noisy , the light shines in through your closed curtains, rooms amd bathroom are strongly outdated, no outlet by bedside and I felt $110 plus tax per night was a bit over priced, We asked if we could see a room first and the keys she gave us one was a small room and the other key ended up being smoky and stale. The guy was trying to run us down before we got to that room probably because he didn't want our decision to be solely based on the 2nd room. The 3rd room we ended up getting had more room in it. No pool and no breakfast but even if it was it was probably just fruit or cereal and a really small pool. Overall it was an okay hotel for a night but I probably wouldn't stay here again.

Spaces are small and old but otherwise clean, except that non-smoking rooms smell of smoke, which is not acceptable to me. Does not offer refunds at all. Very uncomfortable customer service vibes. You're better off spending your hundred-ish dollars a night somewhere decent. Would not suggest this place to nonsmokers.

A bit sketchy from the outside, but a really nice and clean room. We didn't want to pay a lot for just a sleepover--coming in late and leaving early--so we took a chance on a local place. The room had been recently refurbished in a tasteful decor, and the bathroom was modern and sparkling clean. The manager (owner?) was very nice and seemed to take pride in the place. We'll certainly use this motel again as a stop over on our annual trip to visit our daughter in upper Idaho.

This is the worst motel I have ever seen. We arrived thinking this would be a good place to stay for the night. Upon seeing the room we decided this was not a good fit for the price we paid. The carpets were filthy, the sheets on one of the beds had cigarette burns (the rooms were non smoking). We went immediately to get a refund. We paid 210 dollars for two rooms for 1 night. I'm not impressed with the room or the behavior of the owner about us wanting a refund. She showed us a room that was smaller than the rooms we had and still not clean. I wish the experience would have been better. Had to drive to the next town because there were no other vacancies in Ontario.

My boyfriend had to stay here and when I went to drop off food, the lady was watching us like a hawk. Later she called him to the office and wanted to charge an extra $50 because I was there for less than an hour. He said he will find a different place but she would not refund the rest of his stay. On top of that, the rooms smell disgusting. The plugs on the walls are overloaded. The place just needs better management and to be drenched in bleach.
