2/10 Poor

Not likely to stay again
Lobby hours are somewhat inconvenient being 10am - 8pm. There is an after hours number that was called to find out how to make gas fireplace work but after calling 3 times, letting it ring 5 or 6 rings it went to a voicemail message. Voicemail message indicated to try number a couple times and if no answer to call yet another number. Never went there however and gave up. Window in room 211 had gap in between such that a very good wind came through along side the makeshift plastic slide on bottom and stick to hold it cosed. Door to room also had huge wind draft around it. Bathroom door looked to be chewed up on both top and bottom as if animals scratched at it to get in/out so solution was to flip door to only have it happen again. We had stayed here a few years back in room 210 and it wasn't as bad. Room 211 however this stay was horrible. Seems almost as if maintenance doesn't exist and hotel reminds me of owners running it as "slum lords" with little to no money back into it for upgrading/upkeep.

Enjoyed our stay a great deal. Relaxing hearing the waves. Great view of the ocean, though the windows could use a rinse. Overall a good vacation.

Do your research. Read the reviews.
This is my first stay at this location. I, like a dummy, did NOT read the latest Google reviews. They tell the whole story. First, the view is hard to match - 10 stars! The rest, not so much. We booked a cottage which, based on the description and photos, was well equipped. Unfortunately, the room has not been updated since the 1940s,it was run down, the bed SAGGED! The door, the locks, stove, microwave and refrigerator were rusted and nasty. The room, located down a long flight of narrow, slippery stairs, was freezing. Turning on the gas fireplace dis nothing, it was also corroded and non-functional. We finally found a remote that turned on a cheap electric fireplace that was half hidden by the old couch. Still the room was freezing. In an attempt to salvage the experience we tried to heat some dinner in the microwave, only to have the power for the whole room for out. The front desk person explained that the cottage still had 1940s wiring and we couldn't turn on so many things! Yeah... Your choice, lights, heat or microwave! We demanded, and after some time received a new room in a more modern part of the motel (note - the clerk told us when we arrived that no other rooms were available, in spite of the fact that it was a Thursday afternoon and the parking lot was empty.) On the positive side, the new room was comfortable and modern, though the TV did not work. We stayed both booked nights, mainly because the view is so special from this location.

Freezing Experience
We had to make the best of a not great situation. Got there and our "cottage" was upstairs?? Odd? Then asked for change of room and was told there was another room at ground level that had a wood fireplace instead of gas. At that time i didn't know that was the primary heat source. We got in there and it was freezing!!! Person in charge said first bundle of wood was free, but others would be $10. It was our ONLY form of real heat except for a small oil heater and a defective wall heater?? No heat in bedroom or bathroom. Then after we got fire going and the chill off half of the "cottage" had no power. The wall heater flipped it! As I said, we made the best of it, did not buy wood from them,(should have been free because only real source of heat). FYI SAFEWAY SELLS SAME BUNDLES FOR JUST UNDER $7. The fire was nice, but by morning it was freezing again. No deadbolt on door was disconcerting!! Only real redeeming part was THE VIEW!!! Will never stay here again and do not recommend!

Just fabulous. Perfectly dated, clean, well appointed, ocean view and fireplace. I like a hotel that does old school vibes correctly, and they did just that. I prefer character over new and too fancy. The kitchen was the best. The hot water in the shower was a bit unpredictable, but otherwise it was the perfect vacay. Great for a romantic stay or a family trip. This would be my first pick next time i go to Lincoln City.

The view is the best part of this location. It is affordable. Nothing spectacular. We left a day early due to the musty smell.

Lovely
My family and friends and I have been coming here almost every year for 10 years. It's a tradition now. Gorgeous views, friendly staff, and somewhat quaint rooms make the Ester Lee charming. It's not the Hilton in terms of modernity, but not everything needs to be. It makes up for that because it's so clean, restful, and inviting. We love it! It also has access to a beautiful and rugged beach with good rock hound potential, not to mention good storm watching opportunities.
