Positive Reviews
positive:
Easy access to freeway
The I-205 is just moments away from the motel, and guests said they found this accommodation very easily. You will be able to get to shops, entertainment, and most importantly to Downtown Portland with no problems at all from the property.
positive:
Reasonable prices here
If you find yourself on a budget, then the economically priced rooms here will go a long way to soften the pocket. Guests found they got pretty good value for their money, and appreciated the good service and friendly staff.
positive:
Hard working honest staff
The rooms, although older and not all that modern, were still found to be very clean according to many travellers. The house-keeping staff will know your name before long, and if you lose something valuable, you can be sure if they find it, it will be returned to you speedily.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Non-smoking doesn't mean non-smoking
Even if you request a non-smoking room, it can't be guaranteed that it won't smell like smoke. Many visitors were disappointed with the musty smell and went out to get some air freshener to improve matters.
negative:
Awful soundproofing
Make sure you bring a set of heavy duty ear plugs if you want to get a good night's sleep. Guests complained to management that they could hear next door neighbours arguing, as well as the sounds of water pipes making strange noises every time the tap went on.
negative:
What happened to the breakfast?
Many guests complained that, even though the official web site showed a continental breakfast included in the room price, it was only later that they discovered the footnote which read there would no longer be a breakfast included. Guests felt mislead, and felt it should have stated clearly that no breakfast was served at all.
