“My stay at Budget 8 Motel revealed a place genuinely comfortable for a solo traveler, or frankly, anyone needing a quiet stop, especially with the John Day Fossil Beds nearby. While minor upkeep issues like a found hair or a blanket stain were noted, they hardly detracted from the overall clean and safe environment, particularly given the excellent value. The family management truly makes a difference, their friendliness and attentiveness adding a warm layer to this well-maintained, older property that makes you consider returning.”
