A great overall experience. Excellent value. Great staff and location. This is an older, family run operation. Quaint, simple accommodations in a breathtaking location. Clean, comfortable, nothing fancy, but the best value around, we will be back! Pet and family friendly.

Thanks for your review! Yep, we opened our doors in 1954; glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. We'll keep working on making our place even more of a gem everyone can share and enjoy. Thanks again!

Can't wait to go back, we had a wonderful stay here. Best part is the accept dogs all sizes(ours are 70lbs and 80lbs) for only a five dollar charge. We had the large view room and it was great because it felt so private and secluded.

Glad you had a wonderful stay. We don't think it's very fair to limit the size "allowance" of our four-legged family members, so all are welcome. Thanks again!

Despite its unassuming look from the road, the vagabonds treasure lies behind the motel rooms on the cliff above the Columbia. We were in a room on the second floor with a stupendous view of the river and cliffs. We watche boats and birds and just relaxed. The front desk staff were very friendly and told us the story of...

Thanks and glad you enjoyed your stay. Yep, my grandparents moved to Hood River from Montana after seeing the cover of the Sacramento Post from April 1951, a copy we have hanging in the office. 3 years later of that publication, almost to the day, they opened the doors of our little hotel. We'll do a bit more work on...

I debated on whether to review this place or not because it is so nice, and I don't want too many people to find out about it! Our room was on the third floor with a balcony and overlooked the river. We could see the parasailors on the river. It is very clean and doesn't smell musty. The only criticism...

Thanks for your review! Don't worry about sharing your great experience with others; it helps us make things even better for the next time you visit. 40 of our 42 rooms are smoke-free, but should a person choose to smoke they can do so as long as it does not go against Oregon law or our guidelines (no smoking in...

During crazy ice storms, I got into a car accident by Hood River. I checked into this hotel and the pepole there were very nice and helpful! The room was quite spacious and very clean with a tv, microwave, and fridge. I would definitely recomment this place to everyone!

Glad we could help out during the ice storm; mother nature was not being nice those days. We've seen people on the freeway during all sorts of weather for almost 58 years and will continue to recommend that when conditions make it too much of a mess to drive, to stop somewhere safe until the storm blows over. Glad you...

My fiance and I stayed here last Friday night and we loved it. I am usually the type to find the "fancier" hotels (if you will), however, I prefer quaint over heavy traffic and views of parking lots, when possible. It was easy to see from my online searches that the chain hotels were all mid city and probably not...

Glad you had a great stay and thanks for your review! We do like to offer a little more charming surroundings, and we will continue to be updating furniture and fixtures as well. We want to make sure we get stuff for the rooms that everyone will enjoy; the large showerheads for example. As always, let us know if there's...

We stayed here three nights for New Year's weekend and were so happy! We upgraded to a fireplace suite and had an amazing view of the Gorge to wake up to every morning. Our dogs got to come and the place is very pet friendly, Pet waste stations everywhere and plenty of places to walk them, not to mention all...

Thanks and glad we could pleasantly surprise you! We do have a low profile out front with our original building (circa 1954); many people are surprised to learn about the rooms overlooking the river, hidden from the road. We'll be continuing to make improvements to the rooms (like the showerheads) this year, working on making each stay better than the...

The Vagabond was great. Very clean room, comfortable bed, thick towels. It was rainy and dark while we were there, but the grounds around the hotel looked well kept and would have been nice to enjoy in better weather. It's an older motel and our room had just the basics, but it has some updates and is well cared for....
More
Thanks for your review! We're going to get some more wildflowers to have around the grounds, as well as update furniture. Glad you enjoyed your stay, hopefully next time it won't be as dark outside so you can see the view! thanks again.

We stayed at this hotel in October when we did the "Fruit Loop". Everything was great. The front desk lady was really nice and friendly. We stayed in a cabin which had a wonderful jacuzzi tub and a fireplace. It was really clean and comfortable. The grounds are great, especially if you have little kids. There are 2 play areas...

Glad you enjoyed your stay, thanks for the review! Give us a call anytime you plan on coming back, and we'll be continuing to work on surprising you with more good stuff in the jacuzzi suite you were in (or the other rooms too) next time. We'll let Sara and Mary know you love their potpies too! Thanks again

This was the only place we could find for a Saturday night. We were in the older part with a partial view. As others have stated it is an older motel, but very clean about a mile on the western side of Hood River right on the way from Portland. Nice, clean, well lite grounds around the buildings, bathroom somewhat...

Thanks for your review and feedback! The shelves for the bathrooms are buing built and painted right now, so they'll be ready for you the next time you are in town! We'll have them in the larger view rooms as well so you can choose whichever room you would like and have plenty of shelf space. Thanks again!
