Getting late one evening driving back from Portland and decided to give North Powder Motel a look…read more From the outside it looked like an old 50's roadside motel but what a surprise. Rooms were great, the owner is a little Korean lady that makes the stay special, and it is only a couple of minutes to walk either way to a convenience store or a restaurant at the truck stop. Much more personal and pleasant than the strictly commercial places in Baker or LaGrande. I suggest you step back in time for an evening.

We had a "pet" room that had the original green-tiled bathroom (see picture). The place looks like it was built in the 50s, and there is some deferred maintenance, but it's the least-priced motel in La Grande. My wife and I were born in the 50s, so we remember road trips to places like this, fondly. If you are coming from the West, it is the first motel you'll see. The Rodeway across the street is closed for remodeling. All the features you expect are there: flat screen TV (with more free cable channels than I've ever seen in a motel/hotel room), refrigerator with freezer, microwave, coffee maker, heater, air conditioner, and closet space with real hangers. No hair dryer. There is an old-fashioned, 6-foot-wide "mow strip" between the street and the sidewalk on the long side of the motel that has three huge trees and lots of grass to walk your dog. If you look at pictures, especially on Google street view, you will see what appears to be a pool enclosure. The pool is still there, but it's filled with dirt. The parking lot is pretty big, so you could park a trailer, RV, or moving van in it easily. Be sure to walk over to Hought's 24 Flavors for some ice cream!

It was Old, inside and out. I'm fine with the green vintage bathroom tiles but everything seemed worn and tired. The toilet was a little wobbly and the shower head leaked and water shot up to the ceiling. I am sure the floors were clean but they were so worn that I felt better keeping shoes or socks on when I walked around. The room also smelled like burnt popcorn. I know that is a smell that is hard to get rid of so in the mornings while i was eating breakfast and it was still cooler out I kept the door open. I don't know if the owners were "so friendly" as other reviews stated but they were not rude. I think they were just tired and overwhelmed. From what I could tell only maybe 4 rooms at the motel were rentable as they were working to update the others. I feel with the number of guests they can have per night and the price they can charge for the quality of the rooms they provide it may take them awhile to get the place up to making a profit. Probably none of my business but I wish them well.

This place is what we Bikers refer to as a fleabag…read more Used to cost $25 and was a reliable place to crash. Now they are up to ~$80 a night. The room was clean (sort of), sparsely appointed. No hair dryer, no shampoo, one ply TP. Most of the light bulbs were burned out. A/C worked very well. Microwave and fridge/freezer worked well. Ice machine was busted. There are a lot of derelict vehicles in the parking area and finding a safe spot to park can be a problem. There are a lot of long term residents here, mostly migrant farm workers four to a room. They were fine and doing their own thing. Gave me a creepy feeling when I first arrived but they are just hard working guys not out to cause anyone trouble. The lady at the desk was fine although she had a thick accent and was difficult to understand. No complaints about the room, the price or the staff. Very handy location if you want to be close to downtown. If you're expecting a spiffy clean, well appointed room and staff that will dote on you, this place ain't it. But if you need a place to crash on the cheap, it could suit you fine.

The conversation is delightful and breakfast was fantastic (eggs, sausage, cinnamon roll in toast form and fruit). You'll find the house clean and comfortable. Horses, 2 dogs and 2 cats only add to the charm. Find comic relief in the form of a fanciful feathered rooster! I would definitely like to stay here again the next time I'm in the area.

She knows a lot about the area and even called a nearby tourist attraction to make sure we could get in. She has horses, dogs, cats, chickens. When you stay at Willow Creek Horse Bed & Breakfast you feel like you've got away from the hustle and bustle of normal life. We stayed there while visiting our daughter who attends EOU in La Grande. It was only a 15 minute drive away from the campus. I intend to make Lyndall's place our home away from home while visiting our daughter each time we go to La Grande. My husband says, he wishes we had a horse to bring, so we could have enjoyed some trail riding. One side note, the stairs up to the bedrooms are steep, so if you have bad knees, this may be a challenge. Otherwise, check it out, you'll thoroughly enjoy your stay. www.willowcreekhorsebnb.com
