member icon Breathtaking scenery, seedy rooms
Posted Mar 11, 07 by skylands, 1 reviews 
53 year old female with a moderate budget, traveling for leisure

If you're not planning to spend a lot of time in the room and want to be surrounded by outdoor beauty, then by all means, this is a great place.

Understand, however, that you are paying for the scenery and beautiful grounds not the room. The rooms are privately-owned time shares and of the seven or so units we checked out, the owners furnished these units with really seedy-looking (some downright grimy) and horribly uncomfortable furniture. Honestly, I have seen better looking furniture in the dumpsters outside our kids' university dormitories!

After paying top dollar, we were so appalled at the first room we got, we asked for a different room twice before we gave up and just accepted what we got (note: we are middle-aged, middle income, travel a fair amount and have never before felt the need to ask for a different room).

For the $200/night we paid, the units themselves look like some seedy dive you'd expect for $20/night just remember it's not the room you're paying for. The cabinets and railings to the upstairs are 70's vintage nothing wrong with that just that they've not been maintained well. It's not that the rooms are not clean, they are. The staff does a commendable job considering what they have to work with.

And speaking of staff, what a great bunch so friendly and helpful and quickly available. If you like to walk, well, there's a lot of walking to be done around here a good 3-7 minute invigorating walk from car to room, depending on where your room is which is great unless you're physically handicapped or not able to walk that far. If you have difficulty walking more than a few hundred feet uphill, then this will be a physically challenging stay.

There is a tram that goes up and down the hill from the restaurant parking lot conceivably you could ask for a room next to the tram, but you still will have to do some walking and likely stair climbing. This is just a cautionary note in case you're disabled at all.

The on-site Flying Dutchman Restaurant was disappointing at best. After dining there on several different occasions, we found the floors to be consistently dirty; the food quality ranged from so-so to "send it back" and the service was consistently slow and short-staffed. Go into town to eat if you can there are much better choices in several nearby towns.

In short, if you can get a room rate under $60 and are not planning to spend a lot of time in the room, then you might have a lovely stay. But if you want to enjoy the accommodations, we highly recommend going somewhere else. There are several other places close by that are less expensive and have much higher quality rooms.

member icon Quiet Inn on the Oregon Coast
Posted Mar 30, 06 by tworivers, 2 reviews

This inn is situated on private grounds on the ocean in a beautiful area of the Oregon Coast. There are several buildings clustered on a bluff above the ocean so type of view varies. The rooms are typical but did not have anything special about them. I think the age of the furnishings is what made the room feel dull. There are different types of rooms available including suites that accommodate large groups. Most rooms have fireplaces, which adds a coziness to the room. The staff was friendly and made our stay enjoyable. There is a bit of a walk to some of the rooms that may be difficult for some since it is on a hillside. I enjoyed staying here for the quiet surroundings and views but it’s not my favorite place to stay.

I am not likely to return to the The Inn at Otter Crest.
I might recommend it to friends.
