It's always been a fun place, and the various offerings there are a benefit. The mouldings, however, in my room, were very dirty and dusty. All else great.

A Must Stay for Fun & Comfort

Our room was spacious and bed was very Comfortable. The room had a great air/heating system and easy to operate. Shower was good and products were nice. The pool was large and a fun place to start off our morning! The property was beautifully decorated and easy to walk around. A map was provided at the hotel when we checked in. Even though this property was in middle of downtown, it was quiet and parking was easy.
Nice Room
The Principal’s Office is a bar only open on weekends.

I've been to quite a few McMenamins properties, but this one is my favorite. I LOVE all the plants and trees around the property. The outdoor fireplaces were really cozy, and the whole place felt magical. All the staff we interacted with were very nice. The food was great, too! I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

We loved this hotel so much we stayed on the property and made full advantage of the surroundings. There is so much to see! The grounds are charming and well lit- we ate at 3 of the restaurants- had 1 vegetarian with us and she was able to find something interesting to eat at each restaurant. I noticed people strolling the hallways on several occasions to look at the artwork, history on the walls. This is a well done, friendly, non-cookie cutter hotel which will mesmerize everyone. I've stayed at another McMenamins hotel in the past and enjoy the originality of each! The lagoon pool is wonderful! We had a great time here.

It is great that it is pet friendly-including the outdoor areas of restaurants! In the down side the designated pet rooms are on the lower level like a daylight basement. Our room stunk like a dirty dog. Thankfully, upon our request the staff moved us to a nice room on floor 3. We ate both dinner and breakfast at The Tavern. Dinner was fine. Breakfast was delicious! Hotel parking is hard to find when the restaurants are busy.

An interestingly converted school and grounds. Staff were attentive and friendly. A much more interesting option than cookie cutter budget hotel chains.

The Facilities were cool. The Bars were fun to hang out and relax, and the food was good. The room was nice and had a home-like feel. The 3 things that got to me was the lack of a mini fridge, and the chairs in the room were like ones from an old dining set. They were nice looking, but not comfortable at all. This led to sitting on the bed rather then the chairs and that didn't leave support for the back. Therefore I ended up not spending a lot of time in the room. The last thing was the shower. It was very small. That being said, I could deal with that, but the water pressure was barely more then flicking water with your fingers. I've seen it rain harder then that in the PNW. With those 3 things being the exception, it was a good stay.
