Great place to just sleep. They upgraded our room when we got there late which was very nice but it was the ADA room so the shower was very hard to wash with our baby. The rooms and grounds were outdated and the upkeep was less than satisfactory. The breakfast was small too. Overall a 3 but the location was right off the main road and it was only minutes from Glass Beach which was our reasoning for staying in that area.
