Have stayed here on a couple of occcasions around Mother's Day and have always enjoyed the stay and the price. Even when we had checked in to our room and wanted to switch, they had no problem with it.

The location is great and there is a view of the rock, and there was a fireplace. Those are the only three good things about this inn. We chose Tolovana based on the pretty good tripadvisor reviews. We were on a budget but also on our honeymoon, so we wanted a decent place that wouldn't break the bank.

The balcony was TINY and the room was hot but if you open the sliding glass door, the room fills with smoke from the beach fires. The rest of the space was ok, but seems like a lot to spend for an outdated studio-type room where the bed is in the middle of the room.

The main reason we are giving Tolovana a poor rating is that we found BLOOD on 4 surfaces. A streak on the wall, a streak on the door, on the doorjamb and then a smear on the shower curtain. DISGUSTING. Clearly, they don't clean the rooms well. I called the front desk and they were apologetic, and sent a maid up within 15 minutes. However, all she did was a quick spot clean on the parts she could see and switch out the shower curtain. I wanted either a new room at that point, or a major, every surface scrub-down. For the rest of our time there, I was laying out paper towels to make food and treading lightly on surfaces. I'm not even much of a germ-o-phobe or a clean freak. But finding blood all over your condo and having them barely clean it, that is just nasty. They never even offered a discount or checked in to make sure it was cleaned. On your honeymoon, the last thing you want to think about is who was there before and why they were bleeding.

We would never, ever stay here again, and wouldn't recommend it. Spend the extra $ and get a cute little cabin or something.

First of all I want to start out by saying that my wife and I have stayed here 4 times within the past 6 months. The location is amazing, the staff are usually friendly (the occasional bad day staff member, who doesn't have that?) and the rooms are kept tidy. Overall it's a good experience. What makes it questionable to return to is the value, and the level of honesty in which the value is portrayed. We just finished a stay during the Christmas weekend, stayed 2
nights. $200 a night. I was informed on the phone that it was their holiday rate,
and that they get packed. Comparatively, from our previous 3 stays, it was a ghost town, we were astonished. They should be slashing rates to be competetive. We should've had that room for MAYBE $130. We paid less during the busy season for the same room. I asked about it, and was informed that my rate could be bumped up $15 each night, then i could get the 3rd night free. We had to be somewhere on Christmas, so 2 nights was max. I did the math, it came out to $133 per night, so just give me the darn room for $133 per night! I originally booked for 1 night and requested a second night after staying a while. Here we are, return customers, its the slow season, increased prices. This seems like a shrewd pricing practice. Nonetheless, if you are traveling to Cannon Beach you will get AMAZING views, and a decent room with ample space and trimmings. I think next time we might try staying in Seaside for $69 per night in a chain hotel, brand new suite, and drive 7-8 minutes to cannon beach and save the Tolovana Inn or other places in the Tolovana Park area for a once per year destination spot.

P.S. I am astonished at the replies on here from the general manager towards other members, accusing people of looking for a deal, lying, mis-truths, not remembering correctly. The arrogance and dismissiveness. Truly not a good practice. Defending your business is one thing, Invalidating every single persons negative experience, unacceptable. This website is to keep consumers informed, not for managers to breeze through to get smoke blown at them with 5 star reviews. I love your facility, but take the advice, paper thin walls from 50 different people.... so blow some insulation in the walls. Don't minimize people's opinion for sharing their experience.

There are a lot of hotel's and Inn's on the Oregon coast that give a good ocean view, but really few that have the sand and surf reaching the base of the building. The Tolovana Inn has that quality. When the tide came in, we could stand on our balcony and watch the waves just below us. A Tsunami would mess up the first floor something awful I think. They've been there long enough though that I think it's unlikely to happen any time soon. The room was very nice, even with a Murphy bed because the room was so spacious. The gas fireplace provided a great ambiance to the sound of the pounding surf. Great place to stay!
