Pros: The bed was comfy, kitchen was very well equipped to make your own meals if you wanted to. Staff were very friendly and there was a nice variety of snack type foods for breakfast.
Cons: The 3rd floor ocean view was not as nice as expected as it overlooks the parking lot and a lot of public foot traffic and noise. Not quite what we expected for a premium room. Found the room quite warm with no air conditioning, even with the cooler outside temperatures. No windows on opposite end of suite so had to leave the door open to flush out the warm air in the suite. Being on 3rd floor we left the patio door open all night which made for a comfortable sleep. The 3 floor walk-up was not an issue for us but some guests seemed to struggle with it. For the money we will likely try someplace else along Lincoln City on our next trip through.

People were loud outside on street and in parking lots from11:30 pm to 3:00 am. We could not close the windows because it was too warm in the room, we needed the outside air to cool off.

Pros: The staff was always helpful. It was nice to be at the south end of town; we avoided most of the "tourist madness" thanks to the location. We enjoyed the variety of breakfast items; we had not known that was available when we booked the rooms. It's always difficult to gauge what is being offered on the Internet, but we felt fortunate we made this choice.
Cons: We really have no complaints.

Pros: Loved the spa in our room and the kitchen was handy too! We appreciated the robes and lots of towels. Great to have a DVD player already hooked up to the tv.
Cons: Our room was stuffy, even with one fan turned on high, at the door. It also would be great to have hooks over by the spa for the nice robes you provide. We were surprised that the office didn't open until 8:00. Left some cheese in our refrigerator and couldn't get it since we had left our key in the room because the office was closed. That was frustrating, but we had a long drive ahead of us so didn't want to wait around an hour.

Cons: Breakfast is OK - just basic. Room was hot and took awhile to cool down with the window open. Our room didn't have a balcony but it was fairly windy so probably wouldn't have used it anyway!
