I only have positive feedback about my two-night stay weekend stay. Apparently, the former iteration of this guest house/hostel went through a sketchy patch as some prior reviews indicate. So I was hesitant. The pre-arrival communication was clear and helpful. Most of all, the facility is extremely clean and secure. One can tell that someone is taking pride in the place as is reflected my the cleanliness and attention to detail. My room was 305, very near the bathroom and the queen bed was comfortable. Both Friday and Saturday nights I slept well, in complete silence. I stored some items in the immaculate common kitchen fridge and freezer on the second floor. Oddly, I never saw any of the other guests, and I wondered whether only a couple other rooms might have been occupied. PS Don’t miss, Panditas restaurant next door, really excellent and unique. I’d happily book Z’s again.

You get what you pay for. When arriving, parking can be a bit confusing. Some spots are metered, some free to use and a parking lot directly across. Which opens at 6pm and can only be paid in 10 hour increments. There is no elevator on the property and it is a very noisy creaky building. The property is communal living so the kitchen and restrooms/showers are shared. Some cleaner than others. The kitchens weren’t unkempt but they didn’t feel clean either. There was also a note on the fridge complaining about others stealing food. The room itself is fairly small and the walls are thin. During my stay it stayed quiet from about 11pm-6am with noisy guests in the morning. We got a room directly next to the stairs and the sound of steps were very loud. You’re also provided with towels but you may need to call and request extras if you have more than one person in the room. I do also wish the towels were nicer quality, but they worked. The area is nice, but there are unhoused people in the streets. However my partner and I walked down the street late at night and weren’t bothered. Level Up Bar/Arcade and the Macdonald Theater is an 8 minute walk. As well as some food places nearby. The staff were very friendly and helpful, but you need to call the helpline in order to get help, messaging will take longer. Overall it was okay for a 2 night stay and very convenient. I would stay there again in a pinch but would splurge on something a little nicer if I could afford it.

No outdoor signage or parking lot. No front desk, when you reserve, you're sent an email with a form to fill out (including picture id) and return before you get codes to enter building and your room. As I was coming off the highway, it took a 45 minute phone call to process this and get into my room. Room was not cleaned, I couldn't get TV to work.

We stayed here before, so knew roughly what to expect. However, on arrival in the room, there was a smell of urine (which either dissipated during the stay, are we just got used to it). We registered as two people, but they only left us one bath towel and no hand towels or washcloths. I called the helpline to complain about the towels, and to their credit, they did leave us two more towels the next day, but they also left the room unlocked!!! (The automatically locking door was flaky, and we found we had to be very careful to assure that it was locked before leaving the room.) I used one of the common toilets, and it was a little cloudy before using it, and afterwards, I found it is not flushing properly. There was a plunger there, and I tried three times to get to plunge, to no avail. That took a couple days before they resolved it. Also, somebody had colored their hair and left a mess in one of the common sinks. That took 2 days to be cleaned up. And lastly, they did not have any decaf coffee. All in all, not a pleasant stay. Even though we are cost conscious, and it is the cheapest place to stay in Eugene, we will not be staying there again!!
