The owner allowed me to check in early with no extra charge. This retro motel is nestled in a nice neighborhood just off of main streets and freeways. The area is quiet and felt safe to walk around after dark. I was there for 5 days on business, and there are some great spots within walking distance. Futura Coffee has great pastries, Aztec Burrito, Thai Ginger, a gas station are all within 8 minutes on foot. Fred Meyer, gas, and Wendy's are nearby. My favorite was NightHawk, a cafe just up the block from the motel. The room is nice and clean, though appliances are older but clean. AC/Heater unit worked well, and the bed was comfy. Parking felt safe, and the property is well lit. Owners were nice and accommodating. I'd definitely stay here again.

Our go to place in Portland. Close to the airport, the light rail and nearby restaurants and bars. Plenty of parking when we have stayed here. Rooms are basic but clean and comfortable.

Very clean room although could use a paint refresh; easy check in and check out. It was nice that the room had a mini fridge, microwave and coffee maker. Room was extremely hot with heat blasting when we arrived and took quite a while to cool down!

Old school motel, clean but no recent upgrades. There was a large comfy stuffed chair which was nice except that it made the comfy desk chair inaccessible, so I had to move the stuffed chair to use the desk. Close to light rail and a market and not far from hip restaurants (easy driving distance). Easy parking. Very reasonably priced for visiting Portland but not a room you want to hang out in.

Clean and cute property. Easy check in and out. The Max line is right out front, too! Very convenient. The beds were very firm, which was my only complaint. Next time I'll bring a mattress topper.

Liked: Cleanliness
At my age, staying in a vintage motel was fun for the nostalgia. I appreciate that this property has been updated enough to be comfortable without breaking the vibe. I was comfortable, but I do have reservations about staying here again. Most notable is the location. It isn't close to any sights or scenes that PDX offers. If you don't have a car, this is not the place for you. If you do have a car and don't mind driving, the location isn't bad- close to a couple different highway ramps that can send you to the points of the compass. This appears to be in a neighborhood that is beginning to experience gentrification of a sort.

Staff was friendly, check in/out was painless. Nothing fancy, but room was clean and tidy, and the bed was comfortable. Was an added perk to have an actual coffee pot in the room rather than a keurig type coffee maker!

Totally adequate. I was visiting family in the area and this is well located. Close to mass transit, bars and restaurants. Not fancy, but clean and convenient. Staff was fine- not super friendly but not rude. Again- adequate. It did the job for a decent price.
