The property is beautifully landscaped and the buildings are set apart from each other so there’s a sense of spaciousness with gorgeous, lush common areas. I LOVED the very low exterior lighting. Just enough to see where the garden borders are but not so much that the stars were blocked out. I loved that there were pet waste stations all over the place; it really gave a vibe that my dog was welcome there. The “partial river view” from my room was only “partial” because the river is half hidden by a terraced garden, which was not a problem for me at all; not like if it was blocked by another building. The view was beautiful! Incredible value for money!

It’s just a bit old and the interior finishes could do with some updating but that’s not anything to “dislike”, necessarily. The room had a little bit of a musty smell when I arrived but it cleared out once I had the air running for a bit and opened the windows. The only real issue I had with the room was that the aircon unit is very loud so I had to turn it off at night to be able to sleep. In very hot or very cold weather, this could be an issue for people who are noise-sensitive in this way.

We had a nice, quiet room with an excellent view of the river. It was a good location. The king bed was comfortable. It was large and spacious with a small kitchenette area so that we could make tea or microwave popcorn in the evening. There was a full size fridge for our convenience as well.

The shower stall in the bathroom felt cramped but otherwise clean. We had plenty of hot water. We wished there could have been an easy chair in the living space so we wouldn't have to always sit on the bed to watch TV or read. The pillows with the bed were quite hard and lumpy. And we were a little surprised by how small the TV screen was.

We loved it here, we really wish we could have stayed longer than 1 night. The location is incredible, and we had a view right over the river and a balcony to enjoy it from. Its so quiet and tranquil which is incredible as it's really not far from the road. Super easy to find. The grounds are gorgeous and lush, very well kept. lots of bird flitting around, including eagles. Feels like an idyllic hideaway. Our room was lovely. Huge and very clean with comfy beds, plenty of plug sockets and nice lighting. We also enjoyed the folder with information on how the business has grown and developed from a standard road side motel, the the beautiful site it now is.

Nothing, loved it.

The room was large, comfortably furnished, and had a fantastic view. I was particularly impressed with the high level of cleanliness in the room. The grounds are like a park. Really lovely. Great water pressure, lots of hot water. We will definitely return.

We were planning on the kitchen that was listed for the room and turned out to be just a mini-fridge. So that was disappointing. We booked through a third party so it may have been their error in stating that one existed. The only other disappointment was the pillows. Mine were like big wads of foam chunks; perfect for a stiff neck and no good at all for comfortable sleeping.

Beautiful and relaxing stay! This is probably one of my favorite hotels we’ve stayed at. We had a beautiful view of the river and stayed in the winter, so got treated to a couple days of snow. The little kitchen was perfectly equipped, wifi was excellent for remote working, and the little heater in the bathroom was a nice bonus! They also give out a $50 voucher to use at a list of restaurants or shops around town if you stay for two nights in the off season. We really appreciated the little touch and enjoyed a night in town eating and walking around the little shops. Can’t wait to come back again and stay longer!

Nothing!

The place is so beautiful. The garden is full of beautiful flowers and well taken care of. The views over the river are unique. The room was also good and clean. Beds were comfy. It is really worth it to pay a little bit more and have a room with views. I think it makes a completely different experience. The Indian restaurant at the entrance is also a good place to eat. Spicy but sooo good. You can order to go and eat at one of the picnic tables with views.

We loved everything but it is overpriced, like everything in that area. It's far from downtown so you need a car to move.

Quiet, scenic. Hot coffee, tea, water available. Friendly folks. Convenient point to explore Hood River and Columbia Gorge. We chose not to have daily room cleaning since it was just 2 of us for 4 nights. Rear of property has nice rustic river and forest and floral view; it's a pleasant walk with some rough steps.

Outside lights including path and parking did not work at night. I stumbled in the dark the first night. Cannot tell the road from the walking path. Room was chilly even though it was heating. Maybe I missed it, but there should be a displayed history told of the hotel. It was developed some time ago I'm sure.

This is perhaps the cleanest place we’ve ever stayed at!!! It is located at the edge of the cliff overlooking the Columbia Gorge. We were in a king kitchenette, non-pet unit, which was one of the furthest buildings from the front, with a wonderful view of the river below. It’s amazing the type of detail you can see in a facility that’s taken care of in this manner. Not only was the room spotless clean, but you noticed all the small details- such as a fact that there were no scratches or dings in the doors or walls. The kitchenette cabinets had high-grade self-closing doors and drawers, as well as small bumpers on the wall next to the cabinet door, so the handle wouldn’t leave a mark. The kitchenette was very well stocked with dishes, utensils, and pots and pans. We stayed at other places with kitchenettes that had nothing which made them effectively useless. Obviously, Westcliff has anticipated the needs for their guests; you could stay here comfortably for a week cooking for yourself. These are the type of details you do not normally see in a hotel, and it just showed the attention to detail. The room also had a live plant on the table as well as binoculars and a book for identifying birds. Everything is just so well done that it’s hard to believe it’s listed as a two star hotel. It is truly a gem……

No complaints. My only (minor) suggestion is to add some salt and pepper packets to the kitchenette units.

We stayed in a top floor double queen room this room was huge it had 2 queen beds a table and chairs other chairs big tv and large bathroom as well as a balcony, We didn't have a view of the river but the view to the courtyard was just as nice. The beds were comfortable and we had a good sleep. The room was spotless and the balcony was a nice place to sit and enjoy the fresh air. The walk along the front of the hotel to view the river was really nice and you could sit and watch the world go by if you wanted too. Hood river is close by with lots of restaurants to choose from and we visited a mexican which was delicious although there are options closer to the hotel if you did not want to drive. I would return to this hotel in a heartbeat if in the area it was not as expensive as it competitors and well worth the money.

The hotel is next to the motorway so you can hear a lot of traffic noise but it didn't really bother me and I am really sensitive to noise. The comfort of the room and surroundings made up for it. There was a wedding going on close by I think and we could hear music but this stopped at 9, But we did hear noisy guests around 1am I just hate how people have no thought for others in an environment like this.

The only available room was a handicapped accessible, which we didn't need. But it was an end room, very large and quiet. The bathroom shower was wheelchair accessible, had a comfortable, large seat and spray shower accessory, and it worked very well. Our maid was exceptional, with a clean room, not a wrinkle in the bed The motel looks unassuming from the front, but a walk around the grounds showed us the pride they had in their landscaping.. Gorgeous, abundant flowers, greenery, and flowering plants of all kinds interspersed among the trees, rocks, overlooking the ocean, interspersed with the trees at every turn.

very bad wi-fi connections for the internet. It kept bumping me offline There were a number of choices for connections, but the signal strenth was not good at all for any of them.
