Room #2 Smelled damp like a moldy dungeon upon arrival. No where to hang coats. Sheets were damp. Super dusty, and dirty at every turn. We moved the area rugs because we didn’t want to walk on them. There was a horrid stain underneath. The over head light fixture and fan in the bathroom was filled with dust. Stains on the broken lamp shade. The tv covered in dust. The headboard was covered in dust. We got a full refund for our stay. I have dust and mold allergies and spent the rest of the sleepless night in my car. We travel a lot, and in 15 years we have never encountered such sad and unwelcoming accommodation. Beware.

We read the reviews before we called. This is a newly remodeled little gem. As others have said. Don't let the outside stop you from staying. Every room is decorated in its own theme. Very fun, tastefully decorated and appointed and clean. Great restaurants nearby and nice little town in walking distance, also just across the street, we saw whales in the bay. Great place to spend the night or longer.

Great location, good prices, quaint comfy rooms with nice kitchenettes. Walking distance to the main strip or to the water. Fantastic coffee shop across the street for quiet little mornings. My only thing is the walls are thin so you have to be very quiet and considerate of your neighbors.

Don't let the outside look fool ya. It's an older roadside motel that has been updated beautifully. The location was fantastic and the room was comfortable and quaint with all the necessary amenities. It was perfect for our brief stay!

This was a last minute stop in Depoe Bay. The room was clean and decorated in a fun and unique nautical theme. The location was central to everything in town. The traffic noise was loud as the inn is on the main highway 101. Overall we were very comfortable in the room as two adults in the main bed and two kids sharing the sofabed. My biggest complaint was the squeaking springs on the sofabed that kept some of us awake much of the night.Walkability: Close to all the shops and eateries.Food & drinks: Lots of great food options down the street from the inn.

We come here and stay almost every year. This year we stayed for our Honeymoon. And again, this place never disappoints. Thanks for the memories. - The Farnworth’s.

Clean, updated & tastefully-decorated rooms. Stayed 1 night while motorcycle touring up the coas(mid-May 2023). Very handy (walkable) to the town center. Reasonable rates. Outstanding e-communications from owner. We'll stay here again on our next ride through the area.

We enjoyed our stay. Close to downtown Depoe Bay and Lincoln City.Nice rooms and very clean. We loved having the recliner, his and her lol. The bed was very comfortable.The only thing we could of us is a luggage rack and a few more hangers.We would definitely stay here again. They were very accommodating to place us where my husband could get into the room with his walker.Walkability: If you cross the street there is a bench that you can watch the ocean. And the Chevron a good variety. Frozen food, snacks, beer and wine. There also a coffee catty corner across the street.

This was a great place to stay for a few nights. Hassle-free check in and check out, central location in Depoe Bay, inviting interior, comfy bed and pull-out couch. Less than 10 minute walk from the most magnificent city bench I've ever sat on. I would recommend the Whale Inn to a friend.

SO cute and CLEAN. We loved our stay at the Whale! All the little things you need to be comfortable and then some. Love that they are dog friendly and even though there isnt an ocean view from the rooms themselves you could still pretty much hit the ocean with a baseball from the Whales parking lot it's that close!

When I arrived I was concerned but I actually felt as though I had walked into a 5 star hotel. Lots of extra touches that you would probably not find in a 5 star hotel. Complete shaving kit (w/ bandages), covers for bed for dog, charging station for cell and plug-ins, coffee maker and tea pot, dishes and silverware, and probably more that I can't remember. Definitely a good choice for an excellent place to stay in Depoe Bay.

Stayed there one night during our PCH road trip and it was hands down the best room we stayed in on the entire trip. The town was lovely and we immediately decided we will have to do another trip for the Depoe Bay location alone and The Whale Inn will be our go to hotel. Rooms are super clean and have every amminity you will need including a box fan, IYKYK.
