Motels à Coos Bay

We booked 3 nights bc of proximity to great beach. At check-in, we were told that the bathroom sink in our room drains slowly because it doesn't have a proper roof vent, so only use that water sparingly. We were careful, but the sink was completely stopped up and not draining at all. When we asked to have it fixed, we were told that staff could not come in the room if we or our belongings were in the room! That was going to be the end of it, but I countered, ”We can't stay in the room without a working bathroom sink.” The solution was to move us to another (pet-friendly) room. We lucked out. This was one of the rooms that had been ”upgraded.” It had better mattresses, more functional kitchen (more than 2 forks, 2 knives and 2 spoons), and a much improved bathroom (altho the toilet was installed facing the short wall instead of into the room, so knees are up around your ears when on it). I'd left rings in the previous room, and was able to go back to retrieve them - nice housekeeping staff all around. This was good enough for us to stay. The full-timers in the RV park section were quiet, the road was sometimes loud, but we saw ravens, eagles, great blue herons and lots of sea birds. The beach was fabulous. We checked out clamming materials and had fun with that. Our dog was in heaven. We used the outdoor hose to wash her off, used our own towels from home to dry her off, and left minimal dirt in the room. This place is not for everyone, that's true, and I think it's a bit hit or miss. We made the best of it. Probably wouldn't stay there again, but then, the Washington & Oregon coast identities are full of these funky little old hotels.
