Motel 6-Astoria, OR

the room was clean and the be

We love staying here. The view of the water n staff is great.

The only thing was the people upstairs. Sound like they were moving chairs all over the place around 11pm. But it was great staying in our room.

Close to Astoria Trolly and bridge

Little bit run down but everything was clean

The view, location, and the inside of the room was nicer than expected, especially given what the outside looks like. Appreciated their pet policies.

When I booked on Booking.com there were options for a "smoking" room or a room that didn't have a designation--I picked the latter. I did not receive a confirmation from Motel 6. When I called to confirm that we had a reservation I was told we did, for a smoking room. I let them know that's not what I booked. The Motel 6 employee told me that I could switch to a non-smoking room at check in but there was nothing he could do prior to that. I asked if that would be an issue (ie availability of rooms) and he assured me it would not be a problem and there would be plenty of non-smoking rooms. When we arrived, we were told we were lucky because there was only 1 non-smoking room left and it would be a $27 additional charge to get it. When I mentioned what we were told on the phone, the clerk asked for a name (I told him I did not have one, but it was a male on a specific date) and he shrugged, let me know what I was told on the phone was not true. We essentially wound up paying $200 to stay at a Motel 6 as a result--I would have booked in Seaside instead had I known that ahead of time. The outside of the Motel is pretty run down and there's limited parking in the lot.
