Location was ok but would be great if you are simply looking to get to PSU. Saw some stains on some bedding and towels so that could definitely be addressed. Stayed for two nights but will probably seek a cleaner looking hotel room elsewhere.

I love this low key, budget inn. Great location, food trucks right across the street, friendly staff. This is about my 6th stay. Rooms are very clean. Bedding is clean fresh and comfortable. The furnishings in the room however were well past their prime. Wall near the shower had water damage. This inn is a very solid good value and experience.

Clean, friendly, excellent location

A no-frills hotel that is clean with excellent customer service. We were in a great location-- literal steps from public transit, a CVS and small grocery store, the University of Portland, green spaces, plus coffee houses and food trucks. Exactly what we were hoping for! My family and I had a great time exploring the city. The coffee in the front office was excellent. My kids discovered the excellent lamb gyros at the first food truck directly across the street-- they went back for the overstuffed gyros and excellent conversation several times. Ask the tall, friendly owner to make them extra spicy! We also recommend the cheese naan and Thai pot stickers/pad se ew at two other little food trucks a little further down in the food truck pod. We will be back!
