Overpriced and Underwhelmed

Liked: The location was great! Right on the mighty Columbia River. Lots of ships and activity to see. Great sights to see and to experience
Disliked: Way, way, waaaaay overpriced! At just short of $400.00 for 285 s.f. room that smelled of mold and mildew, a room that was troubled by all-night barking of sea lions, a hotel that had no parking lot outside of a small valet parking lot. For a $15.00 charge your car could be parked, but had to be brought to you(for insurance purposes) from only 30-40 ft. away every time you wanted to use it. Really, this hotel should be priced at $200.00 or lower.

Amazing place in Astoria

Liked: We stayed in The Bowline Hotel with a friend just one night, and it was a great experience! Amazing location, very comfortable bed and good shower. Food and drinks at the bar are great, there is really no point of leaving the site :)Sea lions are right below you since the hotel is at the pier. I personally thought it was cool, but it might get too noisy if you are a sensitive sleeper. Earplugs are provided in the room.
Disliked: Nothing at all!

Already planning another stay

Liked: The location is stunning. The food and drinks were delicious. The staff were friendly. The room was beautiful and very comfortable.
Disliked: Everything was amazing.

Last visit was a delight;...

Liked: Really friendly and helpful staff, excellent location, easy to walk everywhere, well appointed room, exceptional view
Disliked: Surprisingly noisy hotel neighbors who seemed not to know how to behave in a hotel - little kids yelling in the hall, adults using loud voices in their room next door, dog left alone in the room next door barking at every pigeon or noise outside. Soundproofing or thicker walls needed. The tea bag style coffee service provided in the rooms was mediocre compared to the French presses they used to provide.

Nice new hotel in great...

Liked: Very cute new hotel in a great location in old-town touristy Astoria. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Bed was comfortable
Disliked: Noise from the seals (under the dock, on which the hotel is located) was quite striking. The hotel provides earplugs and a white noise machine, and it was fine for us. But if you are sensitive to this, you should consider another place. It was super fun to see the seals right under the dock, however!
