I'm sorry to hear that you didn't feel comfortable in the area at night. I suspect that there are safer places in the US but I have lived only a few blocks from here for nearly a decade and this is maybe the safest place i have have every lived. I hope you will give us another chance in the future.

We were given our keys to a room that hadn't been cleaned from a previous guest. When we addressed the issue, the front desk attendant said they would provide new room and a $65.00 credit for the inconvenience, but we were charged the full/original price. At a minimum they should honor that.

We did have something that nearly never happens where housekeeping missed a room and front desk marked it as clean. That should not happen again. When you told us what happened we were horrified so we upgraded you to a premium room and even refunded you 65.12. That typically isn't something we can even do through a third party reservation, but we were able to make a special exception specifically for you. We hope that you choose to stay with us again in the future.

Thank you for taking the time to rate and review us. You are correct, There are defiantly some areas that need to be improved or updated. Thankfully the owner has been really investing back into the property. We have brand new linens, new washing machines, The spa and sauna are nearly fully repaired, we have repaired the sign out front, we are working on replacing all the mattresses and furniture, we have new coffee machines in the rooms and the breakfast room, and much more is coming.

We enjoyed our stay at The Hotel Garibaldi. Our room and common areas were clean, it was quiet, and breakfast selection wasn't too bad. The eggs and sausage bowl was delicious. Walking distance to restaurants, gas stations, and the Oregon Scenic Railroad. Unfortunately the spa was down which seems to happen often and pool was a bit too cold. But overall, I would stay here again.

Unfortunately, I picked this hotel because of the spa/ hot tub and both were out of service at the time of our visit. The hair dryer wouldn’t work & neither did the coffee pot, but since it was probably cleaner to heat hot water in micro, it wasn’t much of a problem and wet hair wasn’t an issue for me. The hotel sits “up” from the main road that runs through town and instead of leveling the foundation around the bldg, they put all of the walks in front at weird different slants which makes it VERY difficult to walk up if you have any balance or walking problems. When I causally asked about it the man working the desk scoffed at me and mentioned he’d worked there over 3 yrs and they’ve never had a problem. I didn’t mention that I had however, hurt myself & threw out my hip walking down to my car, since I’m just kinda a klutz at 63! The bldg itself is over 100 yrs old & I must say, they’ve done a lovely job decorating & cleaning inside - no smells! Not the best place to stay if you have kids since you do need to drive to get to beach, and this time of year, spring break, they roll up the sidewalks by 7pm which makes getting dinner a bit iffy at times

We regret that the spa was not advertised as "out of service" on bookings website. He have been working with them to resolve this but there is work still to do on their end. Thank you for brining to our attention the concerns and perspective you shared about the difficulty some may have with the slanted entry way. That's an insight we would like to look into. And I'm with you, we should petition our local restaurants to stay open later into the evening. There are a couple places that stay open later but it would be nice to have more options after 8pm.

It was good. As long as you dont eat their waffles or biscuits and gravy. We'll just say the bathroom was a frequent trip i had to make throughout the day for me and my daughter. The room was clean. The beds were nice. Only things were the other guests jumping around above us late at night. Staff was friendly as well.

We thought this was a good value for this region of the Oregon coast. Our only unfulfilled wish was a better breakfast. Microwaved eggs is never a good idea, and the only breakfast tea they had was decaf.

Nothing special
Checked in with a really rude man behind the desk, but the gentleman on the morning shift was very pleasant. Spa was broken, no heads up before booking... Pool is not heated. Elevator may or may not work for the 3rd floor. Bathroom door only opened halfway before jamming into the floor, it needed repair. Bathroom fan didn't work. Beds are comfortable and room size was nice. Fridge and micro in the room.
