Very unconvinced not to have a coffee machine in the room. You have to go outside to the main office to get a cup of coffee. $10 day for parking. Conveniently located across the Food Truck parking lot.

Literally couldn't ask for a better experience or location. Directly across the street from a BUNCH of food carts, and conveniently right on the mass transit lines, while also being a gentle walk from the Farmer's Market at PSU. Very friendly staff, comfortable and quiet rooms, and literally not a single issue our entire stay. Yes, paying for parking is a tiny annoyance I guess, but at $10 a day, it's not a problem, and we had 0 issues finding room to park in the limited space available. I'd give it a 12/10 if I could!

Would I really liked about this motel was the price! And the location was right where we needed to be. The beds were comfy. They had an icemaker handy. Parking was relatively cheap at $10 a day. A few negatives are the property itself is a bit rundown. No maid service for the second day. I would stay at this motel again if I were in Portland.

I was pleasantly surprised by this place. Clean and comfortable and very little to no noise at night. I was there a Saturday to a Sunday. The only thing I did not like was that parking was to be paid in cash. The thing I did like was that parking was only $10 and that is much less than most hotels in the area.

Room clean and staff very nice. Food trucks across the street made it so we didn’t have to go out for dinner. Bed was very comfortable. Location was perfect for us because was very close to the VA medical center. Will choose this place again for next visit to the VA .
