The rooms are spacious, many have kitchens. The beds are comfortable and the sheets are soft cotton. Each room is laid out differently so it’s always a surprise. Staff is very friendly and helpful. If there’s an issue, they take care of it promptly. It’s quiet and comfortable. One thing I would ask for in the future is that no Febreze or Glade air fresheners be used in my room because the artificial scents affect my sleep and cause coughing and sneezing. Next time I will put it outside the door right away instead of just trying to cope. It would be great if I could request a scent-free room ahead of time. I realize this is a specific request other patrons may not care about but it’s important to me. There are natural air fresheners that are effective and have fewer side effects. Only asking cause I like staying here and would love the accommodation. Thanks.

I felt almost everything was near perfect, the breakfast was better than average, cleanliness was far above average, I guess I felt it should have been slightly less expensive, but it was not enough to keep me from returning if I return to Goldendale again.

Ponderosa Motel is our go-to accommodations every time we visit Goldendale, which is about once a quarter to get a look at the seasonal night sky via the Goldendale Observatory. There isn't a major difference between the rooms & facilities at Ponderosa Motel & the Days Inn just up the road, but the breakfast at PM tips it over the edge whenever we have a choice between the two locations.

Visitors from Seattle
We stayed overnight in late-February for a destination 1-day trip from Seattle to Goldendale to visit the Observatory. The motel attendant was very friendly and accommodating. This is a classic Americana motel, down to the Googie neon blinking space-age tri-colored lights that grace the roof at the road-side entrance. The cost is quite affordable, the rooms are sufficiently appointed, the beds are very comfortable. The motel allows pets (for a surcharge) in designated rooms. Keep in mind that this is a budget motel. It's utilitarian and comfortable, not elegant and would benefit from better maintenance. Also, the free breakfast includes fresh fruit, buffet scrambled eggs, sausage, potatoes, cereals, Cream of Wheat, yogurt, make-your-own waffles, biscuits and gravy.
