Edgewater Inn and Suites, Ascend Hotel Collection

1)Edge of a slough, NOT on Coos Bay! 2)Hotel is clean. 3)Gym not open til 7am, bc next to a bedroom-so no run til 9am Central time if you are traveling from miJack's. 4) No breakfast. I called ahead, asked if on bay w view of bay. Wilful misrepresentation- was told " it's on the water". If you want to be on Bay go to Best Western. If want to be by boats go to Capn Jacks in Charleston 10 minutes away.

All essentials were attended to. Very nice registration staff. Decent view and balcony. Good proximity to Starbucks and grocery stores. Easy parking

Showed up without a reservation and got a room. The front desk staff were very nice and no reservation wasn’t a problem. Our room was large and clean. The “view” of the water wasn’t anything remarkable. Nothing really to see. I would stay here again.

I wasn’t originally going to write a review for this stay, but this is a need. I am a frequent to The Edgewater Inn, since I am a ATV/UTV rider at Hauser Dunes, and the Inn has sufficient parking for my family’s rigs. I recently learned that the Inn got renovated under new management/ownership and at first, I was excited! The Edgewater always had an outdated atmosphere, but this at least reflected the price per night’s stay. After renovation, the nightly rates’ doubled. I figured this was reasonable considering the renovations that were done. The rooms are cleaner, the lobby is more welcoming, etc. However, despite how clean everything felt, there were a lot of things MISSING. So…tell me how the hotel undergoes an entire renovation, takes away so many features that made the stay GOOD…then DOUBLES THE PRICE of what it used to be?!! The biggest thing for me and my family was the MISSING MICROWAVE. Every time we’ve stayed at the Edgewater Inn, we’ve had an in-room microwave. Every room had an in-room microwave. Upon arriving, we noticed that this particular amenity was gone. Apparently the only available microwave is the microwave in the lobby. The SINGLE microwave in the lobby. On a busy Saturday evening after a long day and many people have things to microwave…you can see how this may be an issue. Another big change is there’s no more BREAKFAST. They used to provide things like danishes, coffee, juices, etc. A simple yet effective breakfast spread, and cheap too…yet that is no longer a feature here. Not to mention some of the…architectural choices for the renovations were not fantastic. For example, the singular sink is SO MASSIVE that there is zero counter space for your toiletries. There is no towel hook. No place to put your clean clothes for after a shower unless you want to place them on the toilet (or the floor if you gotta use the toilet!). The shower head, while modern and bigger, lacks the water pressure it once had and you cannot adjust the angle for taller folks such as myself. WE WOULD HAVE MUCH PREFERRED THE OLD ROOMS if it meant having these features back. The old outdated rooms were WAAAAY BETTER!!! At least one thing stayed consistent…the staff is still SUPER RUDE AND DISMISSIVE!! This was a thing with the last management too, but it wasn’t that much of a problem. When my father called the lobby with questions, they didn’t answer at first. The second time he called, they picked up, and hung up the phone on him. Please bring back the old Edgewater inn. These updated rooms are NOT worth the doubled price!!!

The pictures on the web are a bit deceiving by making it look better than it is. We had a beautiful view of a newly painted parking lot. The exterior doors don't require a key to open, meaning anyone could enter the premises. That was a tad unnerving.The front desk attendant was efficient but not too friendly. All in all an okay place to stay, but I wasn't impressed.

The part of the hotel we stayed in was very nicely upgraded. Grounds were nice as well. Location beautiful. I actually really enjoyed our stay. My only comment was the person who checked us in was meh. Wearing a hoodie and beanie and the lobby oddly smelled of *********. Both odd considering the hotel is so nice. Not a deal breaker but it would have been a 10/10 otherwise
