We stayed in a king suite and the room was larger than we thought it would be based on the outside. The employees are friendly. The bathroom is very tiny and you can't really sit on the toilet without closing the door. There isn't enough space. Also, I am 5'4" and the shower head was too low for me to shower. My 6'2" husband had a heck of a time with it. Clean place and very handy to get to a rafting place. You will need to drive to meals though.
We took a chance on this motel in spite of reviews that were all over the place. This was a perfect place for our family of 4 to stay for one night before a rafting trip. The room was clean. We appreciated our kids had two twin beds and there was a door separating those beds from the queen. Room had a fridge, microwave and coffee maker. Wi-Fi was spotty so Tv didn’t work most of the time. This didn’t matter as we were barely there. Check in was smooth and we were able to check in early. Gentleman at desk went out of his way to recommend a great place for dinner (Riverside) and even printed a map to help us find a fun place along the river to swim. If you are fussy or picky about an occasional bug in the room or some mildew in the shower caulking this place is not for you. But for a decent short stay, this place was great and considerably less expensive than other places in the area.
Have stayed at this motel multiple times since they have been under new management. The rooms are very quiet and clean. I have noticed the property is very well maintained. Our stay was peaceful and relaxing. Lola and Aaron were very helpful and professional when checking in. Always my number one go to place to stay when visiting Maupin. The rates are great and very convenient for rafting or visiting downtown Maupin.
Great cute little place to stop off for a night or two. Very friendly people, recently updated rooms, and near the highway so it's super easy to get to. Our air conditioners didn't work which was a bummer but the weather was nice so it didn't bug us too much.
Great experience. Sevice was great! Above and beyond is the perfect description for the way I was treated here. The manager Aaron was great! I would definitely stay there again!!!
