We stayed here as a family -- 3 rooms with family and friends -- when my son graduated from college at Pacific University. We chose this hotel because we could get rooms for everyone at a price we could all afford, and it was within reasonable distance of the University. (About a 15 minute drive except for graduation morning when the traffic was re-routed... then it was about a half hour. Driver take warning!)

The room was comfortable, the beds firm and the pillows were very puffy! (My Brother-in-law prefers a flat pillow, and the front desk came up for one for him.) The mini-fridge and microwave came in very handy for keeping snacks available, especially since my 4 year old grandson was with us.

The bathroom and sink area were clean, worked well, and there was plenty of hot water even during the mad preparation time in mornings!

The staff was friendly and knowledgeable about the area. The bagels and muffins provided at the office in the mornings were fine.

If you are traveling with cell phones, laptops, e-readers, and other devices needed to be plugged in for re-charge, bring a power strip with you. There were not enough plugs available to have more than one device charging at a time. (Yes, there was a plug at the sink, but I am leery of leaving stuff plugged in on a narrow counter right next to the sink except overnight in a room with adults.) Still, only 3 separate devices could charge at one time even if you use the sink, and there was no plug at the desk. Since there was wi-fi available, I was surprised not to have a convenient plug for a laptop at the desk.

Convenience stores, parks, coffee shops (not just global chains!), and other necessary places were in walking distance, which was very useful for an extended stay (some of us were there a week).

The AC was loud, but with the window open it was cool. If you come to stay in the summer, I'd suggest ear plugs in case you need more quiet to go along with the right temperature.

I stayed for 7 nights and received an excellant extended stay rate. The front desk staff were very helpful. My only disappointment was from the maid service. I left a tip each day but when I ran out of kleenex it wasn't refilled, on the second day I left the empty box on the table with my tip and then I actually got the kleenex. I used the plastic bag in the ice bucket on my first day, it was never replaced. I had my own ziplock bags so more than anything it was annoying.

This hotel was about half the price as those up the street toward Forest Grove. It had queen beds which was nice. The room was clean, but it is fairly old. We just used it to sleep for about 8 hours. The free breakfast was really small, coffee and muffins. The only downfall was the heater. It was very loud and was really hard to get the right temp in the room, we were either really hot, or really cold.

We just spent one night here. It was satisfactory in all respects...clean rooms, pleasant desk personnel, continental breakfast. It isn't extrememly close to the highway, and the directions leave something to be desired. I would recommend that you call the place for more specific directions.
