Well what a pleasant surprise! The Timbers Inn dates to 1958, but was extensively renovated just a few years ago to bring modern updates and amenities into the framework of a vintage motel. In many ways the renovation stays true to the era, so don't expect a completely modern bathroom. What you will get though is a thoroughly refreshed room in an inviting complex. The breakfasts are free and excellent - way better than you would find in the typical chain hotel buffet. They take COVID protocols very seriously, which I appreciated. The staff are super friendly (shout out to Skye at the front desk). The location is within a short walk of many downtown eateries and stores, while also being convenient to the university. And the price is very competitive. I love seeing older motels refreshed like this and managed by independent operators who preserve the building but bring modern sensibilities to the property. Well done, Timers Inn team, well done indeed.

We stayed here because it was walking distance from Amtrak and our stay included hot breakfast in morning. We were very impressed with room (quiet and very well decorated), beds and shower. The hot breakfast in morning included buffet of eggs, meat and pastries. Lobby is amazing too…highly recommend.

This is a pleasant motel located in downtown Eugene, convenient for walking to activities in downtown Eugene. The property is recently remodeled, provided a Keurig coffee-maker in the room, along with a small refrigerator. The staff were very pleasant and accommodating. The facility even offers a free happy hour drink in their lobby!

Timbers Inn -- has been at this location in Eugene since 1958. We were in one of the newly renovated rooms: so clean and welcoming. And their excellent staff cook and SERVE BREAKFAST. See menu in photos.
Located just blocks from downtown area, Timbers Inn has all the confidence aura of a place that has a clear pride of belonging. The sprawling lobby also boasts a dining area and exudes charming and compelling warmth from the minute we walked. The personality of the staff reflect the sense of local pride: welcoming Katelyn helped us during check in and later friendly Ruther served us cold beverages. Both gave the best first impression and were incredibly engaging and helpful in their professionalism and hospitality.
We had made a very last-minute decision to spend an extra night in Eugene so we felt incredibly lucky to be able to snag their last room on just a few hours notice. We got into the city around 10 PM and slipped into the Katy open parking spot, we were definitely delighted to discover Timbers hosts their own beer/wine happy hour until 11 PM. We, later joined by some other guests, were able to snag a pint of cold beer in chilled glasses after check in. After six hours of driving that was heaven. They served the iconic HazeMatic IPA by the legendary Ninkasi Brewery and a sparkling white that kept guests coming back.
We lucked out and snagged a 2 Queen Bedroom ($180). Very comfortable style -- we loved the paneled and back lit ceilings and LV wood floors. And they preserved the retro style of the venue by having the retro 70's mint green dial phones and mini refrigerator.
Separated sink and bathing area for more privacy. In the bath tub: not one but two copper shower heads with excellent water pressure for a fantastic bathing experience. Coffee Maker. Microwave & Refrigerator. Full HDTV. Free WiFi. Free parking lot.
It bears mentioning that their beds are incredibly comfortable and the room is exceptionally clean. They have been renovating for several years and we lucked out to sleep in one of the renovated rooms.
Check out photos. The next day we took advantage of prime location and walked 3 mins to the wonderful Saturday morning arts & music market that happens just a couple of blocks away. We loved it. This may be our new favorite place to stay in Eugene, nothing beats the location, and the breakfast + clean rooms with great beds makes it an amazing housing option.
We'll be back.

The Timbers Motel is an old style highway motel where even the key to the room comes on a plastic fob with your room number. Very much an old-time affair. However, don’t let the initial appearances fool you, as the rooms are clean and comfortable with a nice television and bathroom. While you could use the place for business travel, it’s really just a nice place to come when you’re visiting Eugene and don’t have a hard-work agenda. There is a great pizza joint just a block away as well as a Starbucks. And since you’re downtown, there are a lot of good restaurants and just a nice place to walk. The university is maybe 10 blocks away, if you’re visiting your student. Finally, it is family run and shows it. Well worth the money, I paid $110 for a king room.

My husband and I decided at the last minute to stay the night in Eugene because we were attending an event at The Hult Center. Driving back home that night, an hour away, didn’t seem appealing. The Timbers was appealing to me because of the proximity to the Hult Center and the appearance and age of the property. This motel was a cross between MCM and Twin Peaks which made it even more charming but had been recently updated with new flooring, wood slat ceilings as well as new fixtures. The front desk staff was very friendly for both the check-in and check-out procedures which a quick and easy process. I requested to be on the ground floor for our single, queen bed motel room as I have some mobility issues. The staff provided us a room on the ground floor on the back side of the building which we were able to have a parking spot right in front of the room. The room was cleanish. There was some black stains on the comforter, which looked like ink, the carpet at the front door was pretty gross, the table was a bit dirty and for the few minutes I walked on the wood floors without socks and shoes, my feet became dirty. But, aside from that, the room was fairly clean and comfortable. The air conditioning worked great which was amazing since it was in the high 80’s during our visit. The old charm of the room was amazing, the original shower and tile, along with the MCM style furniture and wood ceilings throughout. Aside from the carpets and floors in our room, the complaints I have were how loud the upstairs guest was. I’m surprised that when they installed the new wood ceilings, they didn’t install new insulation in the ceiling to help absorb the sound. Apparently, the upstairs guest needed to be awake at 5am and leave by 6am. It sounded like they were moving furniture and stomping back and forth the entire time and then let the door slam. My other complaint was the breakfast available was incredibly limited. The bacon didn’t look like it had been cooked at all, more like it was heated in the microwave for maybe 1 minute. The pastries were sad looking and there just wasn’t much of a selection. Personally, I think they could do away with the bacon and other hot items as none of them looked very appetizing. If you want a good breakfast for a really good price, go to Mandy’s just a few blocks away. We will definitely stay here again if we need to visit Eugene overnight. But I would rather walk up and down the stairs in pain than be put in a downstairs room again. Also, I would prefer a King size bed and a bathtub over a shower, but that’s personal preference.

We loved our stay at the Timbers Motel for a night while in Eugene. They've renovated the motel so that it is modern and comfortable. The beds are lovely, lots of plugs for electronics, and a wonderful shower with a rain shower setting. The breakfast also impressed us. We'd been expecting something minimal, but they had a full breakfast with eggs, bacon, sausage, toast, waffles, pastries, fruit, yogurt, coffee, juice etc. They keep things safe by requiring guests to wear gloves while serving. All in all a great stay we'd really recommend!

We stayed here to see a concert at the McDonald Theatre just down the street. We really liked the room and free breakfast. The separation between the bedroom area and bathroom area is one of the best ever. The front desk clerk was very nice. The hotel is very conveniently located in downtown Eugene. We would give it 5 stars, but the bed was just a bit too firm.

I had never been to Eugene so I didn't even book before I flew in. After doing some walking around town we decided that the best place in town for use was the Timbers Motel. Some of the other Inn's and Motels were in what seemed a more depressed part of town. This place was close to the Broadway Alley, 5th Street Restaurants and Retail, and the University. The breakfast was one of the best I've seen for an inclusion into this low of a rate. We interacted with Joseph a couple times and he couldn't have been more hospitable. I was in town prior to watching Hawaii play up in Corvallis and he even joked about being sorry not having SPAM on the breakfast. Great staff, Great Experience, Great Room! Thanks Timbers Motel!

We were returning to Portland from a trip to the Redwoods during the horrific wildfires and there were no rooms available anywhere south of Eugene. We usually book rooms in the nationally known hotel chains, but since nothing was available, we booked a room at this hotel. When I checked in, we were given a room on the second floor, which I usually hate because you have to drag all of your luggage up the stairs. When we opened the door, WOW, this room was incredible. Huge room, vaulted ceilings, really nice furnishings (rainshower in bathroom). This place was amazing!!! Highly Reccomend.

I can only speak about the room we had, in the back upstairs. It was very nice, Plenty of space for two, certainly did not meet the description above. The room was quite modern, and the happy was great. We enjoyed our stay.
The best pizza in town is La perla (3 blocks away), has
the best italian wood-stove pizza in town. Casual atmosphere with easy accommodation for larger groups.
There are more places to choose from in the Eugene area.
