Dunes Motel - Bend♡

Good deal

9.0

Good location, The room was nice, good sized room and it was well lit. Beds are comfortable, and they give you a good amount of pillows. Overall comfortable. The staff was very friendly!!!

− It's located on a busy corner, and parking is rough. The parking lot does not have enough spots for the number of rooms, and even if there is a spot, traffic on the road makes it not easy to slow down to pull into it. Also the shower is quite small and very low. So, a tall guest would have to bend in the shower.

Very expensive for what you get -if I’m going to spend $200+ a night I expect better quality.

The decor of the rooms was nice. Rooms were generally clean. Basic amenities. The man at the counter allowed us to check in a little early and he was very nice.

− The property has clearly had some cosmetic updates, but unfortunately the overall experience didn’t justify the price. The first impression wasn’t great, as the motel is located next to a large adult store with a steady stream of questionable foot traffic. While that’s not the motel’s fault, it did affect how comfortable we felt arriving and leaving. The room itself was quite small, the bed was uncomfortable, and the mattress had a noticeable urine odor. We chose not to report it because the motel was fully booked and it seemed unlikely another room would be available. The bathroom amenities also felt very budget-oriented. The combination shampoo/body wash wasn’t ideal, and the towels were heavily bleached, rough, and well worn. The closet area lacked a hanging rod, making it impossible to hang clothing. Overall, I’d rate this as a step above a basic budget motel, but at the price we paid, I expected cleaner, more comfortable accommodations and better attention to detail. Keep your expectations low and you won’t be disappointed. Updated to respond to property’s reply: thank you for confirming that the issues that made our experience sub-par meet your motel’s standards and expectations, and for validating that had we raised the issue about the mattress smelling like urine, we would have been gaslighted about it as you have done in your reply here. As a reputation-management note, arguing with every issue your customers raise is not the look you think it is…buyer beware!
