Great area, not a bad place for what you pay for. The elevator was down but after eating all the good food Portland has, I guess a little stair climbing didn’t hurt. The air conditioner was the real champ of this place. We happen to be in Portland during a triple digit heatwave, the a/c was perfect and never gave up. The area is great and is very walkable. I recommend checking out revolution hall rooftop bar for great views, which is about a 10 minute walk.

Mid at best.

Check in went fine. The room itself wasnt great. Pillow had a yellowed stain, curtain had a hole in it, chips and cracks in the paint, corners of furniture broken. The back of the desk chair was worn and the metal was a little sharp underneath. There was no door on the "closet". The bathroom door doesnt shut all the way and doesnt even have a lock. The front door only had a handle lock and no additional security. Covered the peep hole with a plastic disk so you couldn't even look out. Noise was a little louder than I would have wa ted, but its next to a busy street on a Friday. Walls are super thin though.

This is a sweet hotel in a great location. Conveniently located near the Moda Center and within minutes to most of Portland. There are parts of the hotel that have been updated and are new and then parts, like the carpet, that are not. I felt safe even on Friday night when the near by nightclub was happening. They do say that parking is free but based on availability. When we came back after a concert at the Moda center the parking lot was full, but on the street parking was easy to find. The front desk people were efficient and pleasant. My one caveat is that the rooms are wicked small. My kids and I all said that we would all stay here again! Great value for the price!

Checked in around 11pm to find no available parking spaces due to them being sold out. Talked to the guy at the desk and he said that there wasn’t a second parking lot, but that it would be okay for us to park overnight in front of the lobby. He was super friendly and I appreciated his flexibility with the parking situation as it was late and we didn’t want to find parking in an unknown city after a day of driving. The room was clean, had convenient outlets, and bed was comfortable. We would definitely stay again!

An aging facility found across the river from downtown Portland. I booked the stay for three friends from out of town, and on entering the room we immediately noticed adult-sized handprints on the headboard of one of the beds in a, suggestive arrangement. The headboard was mildly dusty and the prints were due to human oil/sweat. We all know what happens in hotel rooms but the visual reminder was not ideal. We had to leave immediately to make the next stop on our trip but I called the front desk at 3:45pm to ask if the headboard could be cleaned. They told me the people in charge of cleaning had left at 3pm and they wouldn’t be able to clean until 10am the next day. I have a friend in town so the path of least resistance for us was borrowing cleaning equipment and doing it ourselves. We checked for bed bugs, cleaned the bathroom, and disinfected all high contact touch surfaces. I found food between the mattress and wall but otherwise most things came away clean. My friends insisted they were fine staying at Eastside Lodge, but obviously I wish cleaning the whole room hadn’t been necessary at the start of their stay. I understand oversights can happen, but more assistance from the front desk would have improved our overall experience. Other issues included the elevator was broken, the room smelled musty, the internet had bizarre age restrictions (didn’t allow movies with swearing), and the shower was clogged with old hair.

The only good things about this place were the location and the gentlemen who checked us in. The room was stuffy and smelled like stale cigarettes. The bed was clean but incredibly uncomfortable, we could hear the springs 'pinging' as we moved around. The toilet had obviously not been cleaned (at least not well) because there was something stuck to the seat that I scraped off with tissue. I asked the gentleman at the front desk if I could have a couple of the Lysol wipes that I saw behind the counter so I could clean the toilet myself. He was very kind and patient (I don't remember his name), but that was literally the only good thing about this place. A major remodel is necessary if I'm ever going to stay here again. For over $100 I feel like a clean toilet and comfortable bed isn't too much to ask.
