The only good things about this place were the location and the gentlemen who checked us in. The room was stuffy and smelled like stale cigarettes. The bed was clean but incredibly uncomfortable, we could hear the springs 'pinging' as we moved around. The toilet had obviously not been cleaned (at least not well) because there was something stuck to the seat that I scraped off with tissue. I asked the gentleman at the front desk if I could have a couple of the Lysol wipes that I saw behind the counter so I could clean the toilet myself. He was very kind and patient (I don't remember his name), but that was literally the only good thing about this place. A major remodel is necessary if I'm ever going to stay here again. For over $100 I feel like a clean toilet and comfortable bed isn't too much to ask.

Room was ok, but housekeeping was almost non-existent. Didn't make bed on day one and second day didn't even bother servicing the room.

For the price, it’s not bad. The rooms are what they are. The location is great, with lots of cool shops and restaurants nearby, and it’s about a 30-minute walk to downtown. The bed was comfortable. It could have been cleaner, but if you’re just looking for a place to sleep that’s inexpensive and aren’t expecting anything fancy, this is the place. It is a bit loud, so I’d recommend earplugs if you’re a light sleeper. Would I stay here again? Maybe. The only reviews I’d say are true are the ones about the key card stopping working.

This is the nearest lodging with included parking we could find for visiting our father at OHSU Hospital. It is clean and the beds are comfortable! All we needed for much needed restful nights!

Easy access to everything. And the best part is there is parking! The Jupiter is the same expectations, but has no parking. Being a local and having stayed at both places, this is the best bang for your buck. On my mudda!

Quiet, comfy, convenient budget stay

The sheets were old and threadbare, and our key-cards didn’t work half the time and had to be reissued, but otherwise the place was excellent!

Called police, unsafe

’m writing to report a serious issue with a recent booking. The property looked nothing like the photos advertised. It was moldy, dirty, and not a real hotel, as listed. The conditions were completely unacceptable, and we could not stay. When I said I needed to report the situation and take a video, the staff took away our keycard and claimed we had checked out, refusing to let us stay overnight. This happened around 9 PM, leaving us without a place to sleep. I called your customer support line and was told to report the issue on the platform. This experience was misleading, unsafe, and extremely distressing. I’m requesting a full refund, an investigation into the listing, and review of the property to prevent future incidents.

Perfect for two nights!

Easy to get to and close to so many things! You definitely get what you pay for but it was perfect for us for two nights! Parking is first come first serve though, and we had a hard time our second night finding it. But otherwise, great stay!

Nicely located older but affordable hotel in PDX

I have stayed here 3 years in a row when visiting Portland. It is an older hotel (or technically motel?) but is pretty well maintained and clean. I love the location on Burnside -- it is a safe area with a lot around it, plus you can walk to the bridge and cross over into downtown on foot. It's tough to beat it rate-wise when comparing to other central PDX hotels. The hotel was at capacity, so parking spots were tough to come by. But the staff was helpful in allowing makeshift spots to park overnight in. As mentioned, the rooms are dated but get the job done. When I sat on the edge of the bed, it sunk really deep, but when I actually laid on it closer to the middle, it was comfortable. The shower is cramped and there is nowhere to put the soap because the metal holders are gross. It would be nice if they installed triangular shelves in the far corner. The A/C worked well as it was hotter than usual during my stay. Pro tip: go get Thai from the food cart in the parking lot across the street. It's delicious!
