    The foot traffic

    Convenient being centrally located doesn’t matter which way you’re heading you’re about 10min whether it be N. to Vancouver, E. to the Airport, S. To the Waterfront or W. to Beaverton

    Stinky people. Dirty linen.

    Cheap, low cost. Air pollution is awful in Portland. Clean bathroom shower. Old Furniture. Drapes and bedding should be tossed in the rubbish. The rooms would be more pleasant with new bedding. The hose keeping staff needs a bath. U can smell some of them when you pass your doorway.

    My mattress was slightly deflated on half of the bed, and the TV channel selection is bare minimal but I mean so is the price so I can't argue.

    I mean they didn't ask any questions that didn't take a deposit I felt like my privacy was fully respected.

    The beds were extremely uncomfortable. I wouldn't have wanted to hang out in the room. But it was good for one night and on the road again in the morning.

    Very friendly staff, convenient and affordable place to stay! Right next to a gas station and fast food, easy for travels.

    Outdated decore, looks like it hasn’t changed since the 70’s. the stairs and balcony to get to the doors feels like it could collapse any any moment, the room had a weird smell, the bathrooms are tiny and they only have a few basic channels to watch on 32” tvs.

    Room not so clean, and the room I got (122) was at the street and under the stairs, so too much noise.

    Reasonable price for 1 night.

    The manager (Shelby) plays favorites. I had requested aground floor after I hurt my hip and for several days could barely walk. I was denied even though they had several empty rooms on the ground floor. He filled the empty rooms with people he preferred. Also, refused to rent to me anymore when he found out I had a dog, even though she is a registered service dog.

    The housekeeping ladies were friendly and polite. Most of the office staff were helpful and friendly.

    I did not like the location. There were drug dealers/tweekers hanging out in the parking lot, so I didn’t feel super comfortable leaving my room all the time. Loud yelling noises during late at night made it hard to get some sleep. There is also a Middle Eastern or Indian employee who is not very pleasant and has a rude demeanor, didn’t even greet me or made me feel welcome. The other 2 African American employees were way more hospitable and had excellent customer service.

    Room was comfortable, had the basic fridge and microwave. Cheap room if you need to stay in Portland.

    The TV in the room didn’t work, the drawers in the dresser were taped shut, the bathroom towels had brown stains, wash cloths had hair weaved in the fabric, the bed had holes in the sheets and blankets, only 2 plug ins, and lastly the key card had to be replaced twice as it wasn’t working.

    It was close to McDonald’s

    There was this person at front desk. A Hispanic man with glasses. He was very unfriendly and even a bit rude. He shouldn’t work for customer service at all. Things were good relatively and other staff were nice and helpful, but because of him, I feel like my stay at Portland Inn wasn’t much pleasant. And it would have been way nicer if they had a little expansion on parking lot. Because of its cheap price, this inn seems having many guests coming, but parking situation was a bit inconvenient.

    We booked through booking.com last min at midnight and went to check in and my reservation wasn’t in the system but the clerk honored the price and had 1 last available room- a double bed smoking room, we checked in pull back the blanket and noticed the bed sheet had a cigarette burn in the center, bed side table had multiple burn marks maybe preventable if they had ashtrays, the shower was leaky didn’t feel clean after a shower at all

    I’m pretty familiar with the area as I grew up in Portland, and now living in another state but location is pretty central whichever way you go you’ll find something ie: Head N and you’ll be in Wa State, go E to PDX, S to Downtown, or head W for the Zoo. 10-15 min drive either em way you go. It’s not the prettiest but you get what you pay for! WiFi available, Air condition rooms and cable TV basic necessities met for low cost!
