Henry at the front desk was so personable and kind. I’ve been coming to Eugene for 2 years now since my son is at UO but this is the first at Downtown Inn. This place will be my go-to from now on. Place is central to the campus, restaurants and grocery stores. Parking is a big problem in Eugene but this place has plenty of parking for their customers. The only reason I didn’t give it a 5 star is the room I stayed at even though it was clean, smelled a little off. It smelled like a senior citizen who wore a lot of pomade BUT it was nothing that a Febreeze spray couldn’t fix. Would definitely stay here again.

This is a nice well kept motel. Easy parking, direct access to room, no frills, with friendly people running the place. Restaurants and shopping is close to this great location. Just what you need.

The man who checked me in was very friendly and the process was easy and quick. Parking is right in front of the rooms which is nice. The exterior and interior of the building and my room was immaculate. I noticed that even the air conditioning unit that is outside the room was shiny clean and totally dust free. The room was a bit dated but well kept up, spacious enough, very clean, had plenty of table space, the bed was very comfortable, and had a microwave and fridge. It was great for my basic overnight needs. I had to walk the short distance to and from the Hult Center after dark; there were quite a number of homeless people out rummaging through trash and roaming around businesses nearby which was a bit unnerving as a woman walking alone at night but no one bothered me and I was glad my car was safe right in from of my room. This motel is a well maintained basic place to stay in great proximity the Hult Center.

If you are looking for a great basic ‘place to lay your head’ motel, the Downtown Inn fits the bill. Large, clean, quiet room. Great, friendly service from the office.

An excellent property centrally located in Eugene. The rooms are quiet and clean, and fhe adjacent parking is safe and well lit. Overall, a very welcome change from the larger chains. Would stay again without hesitation.

Downtown Inn was a great option for us for UO Family Weekend. Having designated parking was great, the room was clean and comfortable, and we were able to walk just about everywhere we went. Henry was welcoming and helpful upon our arrival. I would highly recommend!

Sheet was stained. Someone else's hair still in bathtub. Around midnight there was a loud beeping sound like an alarm going off right behind my headboard that I assume was coming from the next room and it didn't turn off for hours. Some guy was yelling at someone right outside my door and slamming things around soon after midnight, calling the other person the n-word and r-word. Luckily he slammed some doors and sped off in his truck after a while of yelling. Overall a terrible night's sleep.

Such a clean, lovely motel! They provide all that you need and make the extra effort of presentation. (For example, there was a rose, made out of toilet paper, on top of the TP roll! Who does that?! These guys.) All the amenities you want in a motel. Terrific stay.

PROS: Customer service is fast and fantastic! And they are very friendly and informative. Property is conveniently across from a convenient store, Starbucks, located near good eats, and U of O (approx 47min walk, and 7min drive). Beds/pillows are comfortable, and bathroom was very clean. It was nice to have a fridge and microwave, since not all places have both now a days. CONS: The room had a foul odor, maybe carpets need a good shampoo but at times it was pretty strong. And lots of spiders in the room. I saw at least 7 spiders during our stay. All in all, outside property is well taken care of, we needed the location convenience and I feel we definitely got that! And really enjoyed being near great food selection. If the two cons I mentioned were taken care of I’d stay again.

Enjoyed our stay at the Downtown Inn—clean and comfortable beds, good price. The only thing is that the sink is kind of high and there’s no coffee maker in the room or coffee available. There is a Starbucks on the corner, though, so not a biggie to get your morning coffee before starting your day.

Simple, clean motel with comfy beds and pillow that's very close to UO. It's not fancy but, if you want someplace to rest well and take a good shower (strong water pressure!) at a good rate, this is it. And the staff was really friendly!

Rated 9/10 but more like 1/10. Area is sketchy and the room was super small, old and dirty. It’s advertised as an inn but is a converted motel. The description misrepresents the actual property. We took one look at the room and walked out and went to a Comfort Suites. I should have known it would be bad when you have to pay up front and no refunds. I’m sure we aren’t the first to leave.

Don't let the Motel-style appearance scare you. This property was GREAT! The front office was super friendly and accommodating. We were in town for a track competition so much of the day we were gone. Room was clean and updated. Beds were comfortable. AC worked great. Loved the room. No coffee machine, but Starbucks located a couple hundred feet away. Plenty of walkable restaurants and coffee shops located nearby. Quick 5 minute drive to U of O campus. Was very impressed with this property and we enjoyed our stay. We will definitely visit again if ever in Eugene again.

No coffee maker in room, but the coffee across the street at the Chevron was really good. I was so glad to have found this place!

We arranged a late check in, and were greeted by the owner. The room was above expectations with the small touches included. The bed was super comfortable, and the room was clean and tidy. The only recommendation I would have would be to include a small coffee maker. Other than that, this definitely rates a 10!!
