Our Room:
I’m pretty sure this is the smallest room you could find in Ashland. While everything was old in years and style, it was clean. Well, the bathroom (especially the shower) was so old, that I’m not sure that the hardest scrubbing would ever make it look clean. There was a bed, a dresser, and a television. I think that pretty much covers the furniture. There was maybe a 2-foot walk area on all sides of the bed. There was air-conditioning as well, mostly needed to drown out some unsavory (at least if you aren’t the one participating) sounds in the night.
The Atmosphere:
This was a family-owned motel. All the family members that I met were extremely nice and helpful.
Food and Other Amenities:
There was a swimming pool – again, old but clean. We didn’t use it, as the temperature wasn’t quite warm enough to make it attractive. Directly next door was an AWESOME café called the Morning Glory Café, which had excellent food, and even better coffee.
Location:
This is not within walking distance of downtown, so maybe not a wonderful location in that regard. But it was directly across the street from Southern Oregon University, where I was able to check email at the library.
Security:
This was the sort of motel in which a few local people live. There was one resident next door to us. I know he at least had keys to the laundry room. The man seemed nice enough, but when people live there, it makes me wonder what keys may have come into their possession. Also, the locks seemed flimsy.
Price: $55 per night, double occupancy
