Since the pandemic I’ve noticed a decline in the amenities at mid priced motels. I was very happy with my stay at Express Inn & Suites Eugene. At first glance I was concerned. One unit had a boarded up window (I’m sure they are waiting for parts) and there is a sign on the office door to call this number for service. Tonya and her husband live at and manage the facility. Instead of hanging out at the office they are out on the property so your phone call get prompt results. They went above and beyond to accommodate their guest. You can tell that Tonya takes pride in her work. You only need to look at the meticulously maintained flower beds that I’m sure are all Tonya, not part of the franchise motif. The rooms are large and the walls are thick. No street sounds from busy 6th ave could be heard. A concern was the near by train tracks but either the trains don’t run at night or they don’t have to blow their whistles during night time hours because it wasn’t an issue. Most motel internet speeds are barely above dial up (2-3mbs). Express Inn came in at 70mbs so it wasn’t a struggle to load a webpage. Had good enough speed for anything you’d want to do. My main point of interest was UofO’s Hayward field which was a doable 2 mile walk through interesting neighborhoods. There’s plenty of other things around at a shorter walk. It was nice to just park the car at the motel and not have to deal with the Eugene traffic or parking.

Train whistles during the day but fortunately not an issue at night.

We arrived very late and the staff we very kind to come check us in in the middle of the night. Decent room. Clean. Comfortable enough. Microwave, fridge, and iron in the room which was nice.

No Kleenex in the room. Beds were not great but not awful. They won’t change your sheets or give fresh towels daily unless you specially request it. Not their fault but outside across the street there was a security thing in a parking lot that made noise throughout the night. Sometimes it was also noisy when neighboring rooms used water. It wasn’t awful but if you’re sound sensitive or a light sleeper it might not be the place for you.

Great, affordable place for a place to flop for a night while in town to see a show. Little Feat! Nice less-than-mile walk to lotsa music venues and great restaurants. The Receptionist was very nice and somebody has a very green thumb. Some beautiful flowers on the modest grounds.

"Low-flow" shower head! Bed was a bit hard, but I didn't notice after rocking out for 2.5 hours and the stroll back through town.

The location is actually great. The walk to Amtrak is only 1.1 miles away. There is Laughing Planet (excellent food!, and Veg friendly!) just a few quick blocks away. And there is a bakery and a natural grocery store (Veg friendly!) with a deli and good variety of snacks less than a 1/2 mile walk away. Would stay here again.

There is street traffic noise, but it quiets down by 9:00 pm. Always bring earplugs and a sleepmask.

The room was clean and the beds comfortable. We arrived around midnight and the owner was readily available to give us the keys to the room and assured us that where we parked was in an appropriate spot.

There was no coffee pot in the room - had to walk across the street to the 7-11 store for coffee in the morning. That was not convenient.

A simple, no frills place but well kept and the staff are great. Terrific value for a clean, safe room.

The surrounding neighbourhood is a little rough. Not unsafe, just not much to look at. However, a ten minute walk got me into a nice downtown area.

Spacious room with a sofa and coffee table, desk and 2 beds. Plenty of space in bathroom. Very clean. Check in was very fast and easy. Excellent hot water and shower pressure.

The towels were extremely thin, nearly threadbare. They need to be replaced. This is my only complaint.

Room was clean and looked freshly remodeled , Good a/c and heat will stay again when traveling to Eugene. Plus quick and friendly check in…

Nothing

After 12 am, someone was coming upstairs with very loud music and it woke me up between 2 and 3 times. Maybe a little more security wouldn't go down well with everyone.

The river view is a view of the 🌳 which was fine, beats the parking lot, but is a little deceptive.

The breakfast was bare bones. Where's the river? Oh there it is on the otherside of the trees.
