Great place to stay. Tough location although safe it is on an onramp and is loud. Plus by a park where many transients move through.

This was a great place to stay. Large adjacent parking lot to the room, quick and convenient access to nearby shopping and restaurants, room was spacious and the water pressure and heat of the shower was top notch. Highly recommended for travelers. Stayed for 4 days and 3 nights.

Poor communication as the room had only one bed when I needed two. The room was well appointed and modern on the plus side.

No onsite assistance of any kind. That’s a heavy lift for anyone used to travel in America.

Absolutely fantastic location and price, and the facilities themselves are kept in great condition. The hotel is very good about communication, and while they don’t serve breakfast, they do have a really cool vending machine room (straight out of Japan) on the premises. Fantastic stay, would recommend for any traveling to Eugene.

Great little place to stay. The bed is comfortable and the rooms are adorable inside. Easy contactless check-in process. Very clean. Highly recommend and will definitely stay here again.

Incredibly clean and very cute and quaint. The owners have done a fantastic job. It’s just the area is unfortunately right on a major on-ramp so it is loud at times. Also some transients in the area due to the nearby park and underpasses. But felt safe and would stay again. Perhaps a front gate would help??

Very cute, comfortable rooms with Smart TVs. Self check in was very smooth and the vending machine shop is so cool! The only downside is it’s is extremely noisy - you can hear other rooms well and the street noise was very loud at night. They do provide ear plugs, though. Overall a great stay at a great price.

The room itself was very welcoming. Coming from a long road trip from California to Oregon this motel felt just like home maybe even better ! The staff was wonderful and understanding. I would definitely stay here again if visiting Oregon.
