The Economy Inn is one of several 1950s-era motels along Interstate Avenue that are still in business. Like most of them, it has had renovations in relatively recent history, and is reasonably clean and comfortable. It is right on the light rail line, so its easy to get places without a car. The parking lot is just big enough to accommodate all patrons, as long as they aren't driving a large motor home or other outsize vehicle. There are quite a few restaurants, pubs, coffee shops, etc., within easy walking distance (the vibrant Mississippi Street neighborhood is a 15-minute walk away, via the Failing Bridge pedestrian/bike crossing over I-5). Our room had a very comfortable king bed. The bathroom only had a shower, which wasn't an issue for us, but might be for some people. There was no hair dryer, which would have been a welcome addition. It was pretty quiet, even on a Friday night.

This was a basic hotel room, but very clean with a remarkably comfortable bed. If you don’t need frills, it’s perfect, and at literally half the price of “fancier” hotels (especially when all the taxes and fees are tacked on). We’ll be back the next time we stay in Portland.

Great stay, but maybe not for the family

Room was very clean, and the front desk service was very kind and accommodating. I would only feel comfortable staying solo, as opposed to having my family stay. Another guest adjacent to my room was yelling and cursing all night, possibly on drugs of some kind, and the surrounding night-life was questionable. However, for the price and quality of the room my solo experience was fine.

Rooms are very clean, and the owner stays on topof maintenance and customer needs. Yellow line Max is 5 minute walk, The Alibi tiki bar is across the street, cannabis dispensary next door and a Plaid Pantry is next to the Max line. No complaints here, will be back soon.

Loud neighbors should have to pay for my stay

Great location and great service. It’s so frustrating for a business when people don’t act correctly and honestly they should have to pay for my stay. My neighbors kept having fights slamming doors etc. It it was any other time I’d have gone to management about it. Otherwise it was good.

Location was great. Safety for my self, my guest and my vehicle was a concern. Was informed by manager that it was a non-smoking facility yet upon entering the room it was very apparent that the previous tenant had not adhered to this policy. The wall in the bathroom had what appeared to be dried mucous. There was long hair in the drain of the shower.

For the price, this was honestly nicer than I thought. The bed was actually super comfy, no bugs. the bathroom was clean, and the heater worked well. The tv timed out from some parental control thing my second night but I switched to my device so it was fine. If you’re new to Portland, there are sketchy people everywhere, and you can’t avoid it. However this place is minimal and is in a nice neighborhood. Across the street is a great place called the alibi that anyone would love (not an ad I promise). There’s a nice neighborhood to walk and a green patch behind the building. The cleaning lady is nice, as are the hosts. The only suggestion I have is finding a way to utilize a digital pay option for the washer and dryer, or a change machine. Awesome to have one though! I’ll be returning for sure.

Liked: Staff & service
It was an alright motel for the price. It was right across the street from a really cool Tiki bar which was a huge plus. And it was about a 10-15 min walk from another street that had a bunch of restaurants and bars in a nice area and that was really cool. A couple things about the room though that were not the greatest. When I started to run the water for the shower, it was a brown color. Wouldn't go away unless I turned it off and then back on again to cold water and then rotate to hot. This was super weird. The bathtub/shower is really cramped. You will likely hit your elbows on the wall while washing. The toilet was awkwardly close to the wall in front of it. If you are a tall or overweight person, it's highly unlikely you will not fit. If you bend forward you hit your head on the wall. It so cramped and strange. Also the outlet in the desk I had did not work.
