I stayed at the Econo Inn in Portland for one night in July 2025. the staff was very accommodating. I had called the day before to see if I could check in early and they said 3:30 would be fine usually it's 4:00 p.m.. I got there around 2:30 and they had the room ready before 3:00. and let me go in my room early.

Room was fine but had a strange smell (maybe cleaning supplies, maybe not). Hair dryer not affixed well to the wall so basically fell off when we went to use it. Front desk staff not always easy to communicate with (they were nice just not sure they understood us).

Found the room smelled very strongly of cleaning products as soon as we entered. The bed and bathroom were clean but the floor surfaces felt slightly greasy which I did not like. Staff was very friendly otherwise

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities

I called the front desk to inquire about the room and their policies, the man at the front desk was rude and kept hanging the phone up. He even answered the phone and left my voice talking while he placed the phone down. I was desperate at 2 am PST. I went to the location and was told checkout was at 1 pm but that was a lie. It was actually 11am now I know that’s standard but don’t lie to me to try and collect a late fee. The man at the front desk was upset that I chose to book through Expedia rather than purchasing with him directly. He began to talk to me in a manner to try to get a reaction being rude and even saying just because I booked through Expedia he can say all spots are filled. The room was horrible and smelled like cigarettes. Rips on the bedding and a leaking sound from the mini refrigerator. Luckily I only needed one night DO NOT GO HERE.

The experience was so average that is hard to say anything good or bad. If anything, there was no coffee maker in the room, and my dad likes hid coffee in the morning.
