Clean property and nice room. Staff was great. Did not like the shower, very low water pressure in shower and small shower stall. shower head was way to high. They should install hand held shower head so you can clean your entire body.

This is the nicest hotel in town. If you are coming to Ilwaco, this is where you need to stay. However, it is not 5 stars, not even close. The on-site pub is very convenient and the food is excellent.

The property was quiet and well maintained. It was perfect for a peaceful weekend get away. I’m happy with the price we paid as well. Two things could use some improvement. The mattress that we slept on was so hard and uncomfortable that neither my husband or myself got a full night of sleep. The showers were comically small and didn’t have a functional shelf to set hygiene products on, so we kept the shower door open in order to grab products as we needed them. It felt silly to not include something as simple as a shelf to make the showering experience better.
