Super clean

Cleanest motel I’ve ever been at! It was spotless, and they even included disposable bath mats, a great addition for young kids!

Convenient Location, Good Value

We flew in to PDX to visit friends in Portland and Vancouver. The motel was near the airport and close to Interstate 5. The room was basic, quite clean and included a comfortable chair. Parking was convenient and free. It is a short walk down to a Fred Meyer store (which includes a Starbucks) and there were a few bars and restaurants within a few blocks, a few of which we had the opportunity to try out. Nothing fancy, but the Viking Motel is an outstanding value in a convenient location. We will definitely stay here next time we visit Portland.

It is an older property, but that I know of not part of some huge chain. Other than it being slightly dated, it was a very clean, quiet, comfortable room and bed. Staff was great in explaining how things work.

Basic and quite adequate

The motel is old so it's not surprising that some wear and tear shows up-- chips on the bathroom door paint, for example-- but the room and bathroom were clean and functional and the bed comfortable. The place was quiet too, and the location is good for us. We stayed two nights and expect to stay another two soon.

We didn’t have high expectations. But for an old cheap motel we loved it. We appreciated that there was a microwave, fridge, and hair dryer. The parking was simple. The whole place was quiet. We’d stay again.

This place is awesome! The check-in process was quick and easy; the motel manager was super friendly but concise. The room was cute and clean. The bathtub was extra wide, and easily seats two adult humans. The bed was pretty comfortable, quite spacious. Maybe the best part about this place is the neighborhood. There's a New Seasons market about a block away, really decent coffee shop Futura right around the block, Satchel dispensary also a block away, it's basically a pretty fun part of North Portland. We live locally, my girlfriend and I were just doing a little staycation to get a break from the kids, etc. This place was perfect for a little respite from the madness of real life. We'll probably stay here again at some point, because why not? If I had any constructive criticism for this place, it would be sort out the temperature on the mini fridge because we definitely froze some stuff that we didn't want to. And I think if you're going to advertise a shower/tub combo, it would be cool if you made sure to have stoppers for the tubs in case people wanted to actually enjoy a bath. But, overall, the stay was great and this is me trying to be nitpicky for the sake of the most honest review I can make.

This place was good. We did have a problem with the heater not working. It wouldn’t go into heat mode. It would only stay in cool mode, which is normally fine, but not when it’s cold outside. Nobody is at the front desk after 10. While they said we could ring them, it was very late and felt uncomfortable doing so.
