Cheap Hotels in Astoria

The good. Location: It’s right in the water and close to downtown. The view is spectacular, and it’s within walking distance to the fun shops and restaurants. The walk along the peer is lovely. Amenities: The coffee in the room is really good. By far the best coffee I’ve had in a hotel in the US. There is also cream in the fridge and brown sugar cubes in a cute dish. There is a fridge and a separate freezer which is always a bonus. You can cast from your phone to the t.v. Which is perfect There’s also a wireless phone charger in the room and that saved me. The bad. The Bed: I cannot stress enough how awful that bed is. It is so soft you become enveloped in fluff and there doesn’t seem to be a bottom. There is no support. Each night I was there I had to get up 3-4 times to stretch and move. I love a soft bed, but this was overkill. I’ve never slept on something so uncomfortable in my life. The noise: It isn’t the sea lions. It’s the walls that are so thin I could hear the conversations and alarm clocks of my neighbors and the CONSTANT slamming doors. The doors slam so hard the walls shake. They slam shockingly hard. The room wasn’t super clean. The rug was disgusting. There were sticky stains and filth on it. They obviously don’t launder or spot clean the rugs in the rooms. That was really gross. There were hairs from “down there” in the shower and the sink was clogged. The corners of the room weren’t swept and there were dead flies on the floor.

Loved the complimentary chowder at 5:00! What a great added touch! Rooms were a little tired, due for an upgrade. View of the water was very nice! The location was great for us as we explored the area.

Great stay overall, however, the coffee in the morning was not hot even arriving early for breakfast, the scrambled eggs were watery, and the biscuits and gravy should be kept at a warmer temperature. Barely warm. Otherwise it was a decent continental breakfast. Good variety.
