    Equipment outdated. Microwave was refaced to make it look good. Open the door, and it says otherwise. As soon as I entered the room, a strange odor, unidentifiable, but distinct. Turned on room HVAC and took hours before I could comfortably breathe. Had to open the window and kept the bathroom ventilator running all night just to have clean air.

    Easy access. Budget friendly.

    Needs updated terribly. No wash cloth, no hand towels.... had to use shower towel to dry hands. Hole in wall. A bit of a different poster on the back of the door, didn't expect. Shower didn't drain all that well so water went onto the floor. Don't think there was an ice machine, so bring your own. No restaurants near by. Location was a bit out there it felt when driving. Lobby door was locked when I checked in which made sense as it was after 9 pm but to also be locked when I checked out made me uneasy. Check out is at 10 am!

    Decent price. Availability on a holiday weekend. Small, mom and pop place for sure. Not a lot of rooms. Bed was comfy, room was decent size. Had a fridge, microwave, small kitchen with cabinets and sink. Small table, 1 chair. Gentleman was friendly when I checked in.

    The bunk bed doesn't have any blankets so I had to go to Target to purchase a blanket to keep myself warm. Also, there was no garbage can in the small kitchen area so we have to use my own plastic bags to throw our garbage away with. And the hotel owner doesn't realized that I booked the room thru booking.com.

    It's affordable and it's easy to get to by bus than taking the taxi. Came here for a weekend day screening at the Clinton Street Theater and the owner of the hotel understands where I travelled from.

    We did not know we needed to put down a $100 cash deposit at check in. Although, I understand why the owner would ask for a deposit, since it’s a cheap stay, I’m sure he gets some bad people in there that destroy the room. It did make me feel uncomfortable giving him that much money (almost double the room price) and hoping I would get all my money back. I received the full amount back at check out and everything worked out fine.

    This was the most affordable option for staying near PDX airport. This place has all the amenities you need- shower, bed, also had a bunk bed- great room if you have kids, shower, sink, refrigerator, electric outlets, etc. All we needed was a cheap place to have a shower and place to sleep. Place was clean and had everything we needed.

    No blanket. Seriously, no blanket. Just a sheet and another sheet pretending to be a bedspread because it had a printed design. An inch of daylight under the door, so lots of brisk damp fresh air. But no blanket. I stuffed TP in the door's security peephole which made anything outside look unfocused and tiny (would looking in be magnified?) Didn't take a chance. There was a really, really loud wall heater/AC unit. Too loud for sleeping so I turned it off knowing I'd wake up cold in the night without a blanket. Not a single hook to hang even a wet raincoat (or towel or clothing.) 1 chair to either pile stuff on or sit in, your choice. The mini fridge froze my breakfast protein shake solid overnight so it was undrinkable.

    wifi I would have said the bed was comfortable if it had a blanket.

    This is the nicest place I've stayed for a 2 star type hotel, the rooms have a bit of an apartment feel, the staff are very helpful and friendly, moreso than other hotels in the area.

    I wish there was something i could say here. .

    The managers are great. Very kind people who obviously value human life and i felt a strong connection to our Heavenly Father. I was comforted by the male manager as i just ended a horrible relationship and my parents no longer walk this realm. I was under the impression there were no kind people at least in America and found two great ones. His wife's smile makes me feel good. not sure why but it does. I think you will like the place. Its not as it seems on the outside because of the location, but its a gated facility and its clean as hell. Rooms have microwaves and nice size fridges and some with freezers. They take pride in that place and it shows.

    Proprietor/Counterfeit Currency Passer

    • Stayed 1 night
    • Submitted via mobile

    Owner required $100 deposit, but refused to give me a receipt for the deposit. Upon checkout he first "forgot" to offer to refund deposit, then tried denying that I paid deposit, then insisted that I paid with a card saying that deposit would be credited back to my card (though he knew I paid cash), then finally, when I was resolute about receiving my refund he handed me a COUNTERFEIT $100 bill. I examined the bill, it was an obvious fake. He insisted that it was genuine, and only when I suggested that I would call police did he agree to pay me with genuine currency. Scoundrel. Thief. Shameful. Obviously, I'll never return to this motel.

    Allows pets ($20 charge)

    Not clean, smells mildew and unclean, they take a $100 deposit, no coffee maker or ice, I didn’t feel safe when ordering food delivery or going outside.

    It was beside food trucks but we couldn’t go. It was also cheap.
