I don't always leave reviews and I kinda struggled with what to say. This motel has been upkept quite well. Vinyl plank floors, bathroom tile clean and new. Great bed, crisp linens. Heater worked ( thank God cause California girls freeze in Oregon!). Beautiful mums growing in front.
BUT.... The housekeeper never came. All three days we returned after our outings and the room was not cleaned. The TP is the thinest one ply I've ever seen! There is usually no one in the office either. For the price, that was not great.
It seems that there are people living there- but

I cannot for the life of me figure out why this motel isn't rated at least 4-star. After driving 2500 miles, and staying in "higher" rated hotels, this was the first that was SO CLEAN I genuinely felt compelled to remove my shoes! Parking's tight, but there's street parking 25 yards from your door that accommodates larger vehicles. No free breakfast, but the closest coffee shop opens at 5:30, and is a 145 feet walk. I highly recommend this motel should you be traveling this way.

I was driving from Seattle to LA on the 101 because I was tired of taking the 5. It was during the Pandemic and most hotels/motels were closed; the few open had quickly filled because it was the day before Memorial Day. So I headed toward Corvallis. I was trying to get to LA for my daughter's wedding. Saw this place. Not a place I'd usually stay, but it was getting dark and I was getting concerned. It was very nice. Priced right for what was offered. Room was very clean. Bathroom was clean and updated (for those who worry about such things). What I liked best -- walls were painted light yellow

Okay I drive a commercial vehicle. My boss set me up for some rest time so that I would be in compliance with State and Federal commercial drive and sleep regulations. I got there like I was supposed to between 7 and 7:30 a.m. and nobody was there so I went over to Subway and got something to eat came back and still nobody was there but I just kept ringing the doorbell. Finally a Sleepy Man shows up it's about 9 a.m. and starts the check-in process. With the sleep running from his eyes he's trying to check me in, asking me to fill out some paperwork which I do and then asks to see my

For an older, no-frills roadside motel, the Galaxie was great. The woman who checked us in was very friendly. Our room with two queen beds and a mini-fridge was spacious and clean; it seemed to have been recently renovated. I liked that it had smooth laminate flooring instead of carpet (which I'm sometimes suspicious of in motels). Upon turning on the AC there was a slight smell, but that went away in a minute. All that would make this about a 4-star review for a moderately priced small-town motel. But - best of all - I had made a reservation here a year prior to The Great American Eclipse

We stayed in this place in December. Disgusting!! Room smells like old cigarettes, mattress is hard as a rock, pillows are flat and hard. Person working the front desk is rude! I can't figure how this is starred a 3? Must be the owners going in to do bogus reviews. Heater didn't work adequately. Room was freezing! Do not stay here!!! I'd rather sleep in my car.

About what you might expect for an inexpensive room.
Basic, spacious. No obvious stains on carpet, bedspread, etc.
Some noise from the highway in front, but not intolerable.
Minimal housekeeping effort. When I arrived there was still a dirty towel hanging inside the bathroom door, toilet paper was effectively gone (and no other rolls), there were stray hairs on the bathroom floor, shower, etc.
Despite the sign out front saying "Kitchen" and the other reviews here, there was nothing like that in my room (no refrigerator, microwave, coffeemaker, etc.)
Shower curtain smelled like old

We stayed here while working near Alsea, OR. Nearest motel aside from Waldport. Owners were a bit cold and terse on the phone and in person, but allowed our dog for $10 a night extra so can't complain. The room was very good for the price. $65/night got us two clean beds, small oven and fridge, and a good shower (good pressure and clean). Like us, the crowd that frequents here are loggers and construction guys, so it may get a bit loud at times, but other than that it's a great motel for the price.

Rooms booked in Corvallis for Mom's Weekend, graduation, or sports events? The Galaxie motel is just ten minutes away from OSU and downtown Corvallis, located in Philomath. The hotel has very clean rooms and is owned by my daughter's second-grade classmate's parents. The owners live on site and take very good care of the grounds and the rooms. If you want a nice, clean place to stay for a great rate - this is the place to go. You are guaranteed a parking space in front of your room. Don't forget to check out Main Street in philomath and some of the little eateries and shops
