We stayed here specifically for the room quality/size and restaurant/bar on site, as well as offering rollaway beds (family of five), which their website and front desk confirmed they had rollaway beds. We were traveling and only staying one night which is why we sought out these amenities first. On arrival, one clerk said they just rented their last rollaway, the manager said they don’t offer them. We asked for extra sheets so our youngest could sleep on the floor. They didn’t have them. They don’t provide hand soap in the bathroom! What is that!? Also, the restaurant and bar were closed for the week for renovations. Would have been great to know that since that was a main selling point for us. To make up for the confusion on the rollaway, the manager offered us some credits to the snack area. When I went to use them the next morning the clerk said she saw nothing on our account and offered no solution. The entire staff seemed inexperienced and lacked any kind of actual customer experience skills other than saying “sorry.” The rooms aren’t bad — normal at best — but would never recommend staying here at this price point.

We were there for the USC - Oregon game. We (USC) lost but our stay at Valley River Inn was a big win! Room was large and clean with many amenities such as double sinks, coffee, tea, large TV, balcony and convenient and free parking. Hotel is across from a mall and many restaurants. We were walking distance to Autzen Stadium. Willamette River runs right outside the restaurant which had a great menu, service - and the bar was fantastic! Great martinis, Manhattans after the game! Nice, large fireplace in the lobby area - was perfect for a nightcap!

We were on the first floor; guests above us were partying all night till at least 2 am. I’m not sure how many people were in the room, or if drugs were involved, since we could hear the toilet flushing all night as well. Management refused to do anything. It was a horrible experience. Never again!!!!
