Umatilla accommodation from AU$129

Excellent

This was just an overnight stop on my way to somewhere else, but it was less than I'm used to or expected for nearly $100. On the site it's "inn and suites" when I pulled up the sign says, 'weekly rates' and 'kitchenettes.' The disperity between the 2 is huge! Absence of relavant details is false asvertising. Especially when the pictures mask the true quality of the property. Mismatched, beat-up furniture, repurposed modern office furniture masquerading as bedroom furniture. Stained and marred walls, doors, flooring and bathrub. Holes at the bottom of the bathroom door (splintering). Inside main door threshhold was exposed old wood (unfinished repair??) Could not get hot (or even tepid) water from bathroom sink. Did not even try shower--uninviting. Paint and caulking would have gone a long way! Heat worked fine, but had a lengthy, noisy start up, run and stopping sequence that repeated often. No amenities, no perks. Kleenex was empty. TP was low quality, not useful in lieu of tissue, bo spare roll. There was a tv w/remote and landline phone. The bed was comfortable, the bedding clean. (I don't think the pillows had pillowcases though.) There was no pervasive room odor, bad or otherwise--which was a good thing.

My experience was overall very good. A couple things weren’t available due to it being out of service (coffee machine broken) and/ or not available (no water dispenser). During check-in the service employee was very friendly but he had really bad body odor which was not great to experience.
