We stayed at Captain Johns Motel early 2025 and found it to be very clean and a great deal. The perfect option for those that like to save some money and get a lot for your dollar. Nearby restaurant was a good place for lunch and the docks are nearby if you want to check out the fishing boats.

Actually in Charleston but very close to Coos Bay. We stayed 3 nights in an accessible king deluxe room. Very clean and comfortable. Great hot coffee and packaged fresh pastries and fruit. Location quiet and good for sightseeing in the 30 mile radius. Great restaurant with in walking distance. Would go back.
