Budget 8 Motel John Day

Budget 8 Motel John Day

10/10 Excellent
"If you are looking for a high dollar hotel, this is not it. That said, I have stayed at the other two.primary hotels in John Day which are about twice the price and they are not two times better. The owners are extremely nice people and kind and the linens and bedding were fresh. The beds are comfortable the shower works well, they have in room coffee, the air conditioning worked well. You will not regret staying here and you can use the extra money in your pocket for doing something fun or buying an extra tank of gas."
