My husband and I got away without the children and spent a fabulous weekend in our favorite Salem accommodations. With an indoor pool and hot tub that are usually the highlight for the children and the sauna and weight-room to boot, we ALWAYS choose to stay here. The rooms are kept exceptionally clean and the wonderful breakfast bar is simply... more

We stayed here one night for a family wedding in Salem and I wasn't expecting much but I was plesantly surprised! The room was spacious and clean and the beds were pillow-top like-very cushy and comfy! They also had free breakfast the next morning before we checked out which included eggs, sausage and biscuits and gravy--not just your usual coffee... more

We were just looking for a place to sleep between travel locations and this hotel provided just that. Clean, spacious rooms with a microwave and mini-fridge were better than we expected. Location right off I-5 made it easy to access, but the road noise was louder than I thought it would be (rooms face I-5 and doors don't block out... more

For a very low price, this hotel was incredible. Rooms were huge with modern decor (no tacky floral prints!). Very large indoor swimming pool with kiddie pool attached with fountain in the middle. Pool was a little cool at first but fine once you got used to it. Hot tub was quite big as well. Exterior of hotel was a... more

Found this motel via an internet search, and after reading reviews about it, and comparable other potential places to stay. Had an excellent stay, with zero problems. Asked for an upper room and received a lower. This was no problem until the second night, when some heavy footed travelers checked in after 10 p.m. The soundproofing in that aspect is... more

We chose this spot because it was pet friendly. The creepy part was one of the locks on the door--it was screwed in with a piece of wood, shabbily--with a lousy cord to pull over the door handle. That gave me an uneasy feeling of who must be lurking around outside--they could have done a much better way of installing... more

Having spent the entire day exploring the Columbia River Gorge and Mt. Hood, we were exhausted and ready for a much needed good nights sleep. After consulting our AAA tourbook we opted to stop at the Black Bear Inn to check on availability for the evening. Rooms were available and we opted for a room on the first floor. This... more

I picked this place because the pool pictures looked enticing. I was looking forward to a swim, and perhaps a sauna. The establishment itself was...well, marginally okay. It's not seedy, just very much in need of a renovation. The folks at the front desk were friendly, and the bear statues everywhere were cute. But the room was very tired-looking, with... more

I would rate this place as marginal, at best. The noise level is incredible. We were fortunate enough that the weather was hot, so our air-conditioner was so loud it almost overcame the traffic noise. This was the worst night's sleep I have gotten in a few years. Ah well, I won't make the same mistake again. more
