Third time staying in this property and would stay again with no hesitation. Econolodge punches above it's weight with the in-room amenities it offers, location, price, and accessible parking. For it's price, you get a pretty spacious room with a microwave, a mini fridge, ironing board & iron, and good water pressure in the shower. Only downsides are the limited toiletries (two travel size mini shampoo bottles, two tiny soap bars) and how dry the customer service was. In previous stays the front desk associate was very upbeat and friendly, this time there were two and both of them were dry. I also forgot an item in the room, called after checking out to report it and the associate claims to have looked for the item (which was left inside one of the drawers) but couldn't find it and wanted to get me off the line quick.

Very well-managed and well-kept, this motel is a superb deal relative to its room prices. The owners are extremely friendly and pleasant. The hotel is very conveniently located, just yards away from food cards, streetcar stations, tram stations, and Portland State Univ’. I will also mention how easily accessible this hotel is from Portland’s interstate freeways (I-5 and I-84). Great place!
