What guests think

Reviews of Hoosier Inn- Portland describe a quiet, budget-friendly, family-run motel with consistently friendly owners and staff, a convenient edge-of-town location near restaurants and shops, free parking, and overall good value for travelers seeking a simple, restful stop.

Rooms are comfortable, but some are dated with deferred maintenance; isolated issues include sticky entry doors, hard-to-tune AC, and mixed bed firmness. Many guests report very clean rooms, while a few note housekeeping lapses (hair in bathrooms) and small or rough towels. Expect a straightforward, no-frills stay at a fair price.

I like that this property is a very nice family owned business. No fancy amenities but everything we needed - a refrigerator which even had a separate freezer, microwave and small tv. Large rooms with additional tables gave plenty of area to put your belongings. The prices are a very good value for what you get.

Very nice lady checked me in, and the process only took a few minutes. Hotel grounds well-kept with good security lighting and plenty of parking spaces. Room was nice and clean and free of odor. Bed very comfortable. Best night's sleep I have had in a while. On the outer edge of town but restaurants and businesses nearby. I'll be back.

There were some parts of the hotel that looked nasty. One plug was not working that the TV was plugged into. The towels were so small. The bed hurt my wife’s back. In the bathroom, the tub looked cracked and needed repair. There was dust on the hair dryer. In the morning, I had to move the coffee maker due to not plugged in and made it inconvenient. We will not be staying there again.

I didn’t give a good review because the room had an odor which kept me awake. The bath tub had hair in it and the towel and wash clothes had hair weaved in it. That was disgusting. I was unable to tell staff because we returned from our event late and left early.

Quaint place with adequate providings. What I expected for property but at a fair price. Brought own towels and wash rags per previous reviews…glad I did. Sink was disconnected under counter and got floor wet. Noted hair on bathroom floor and a bar of soap left on top of shower inset. Quiet property. Good food offerings nearby. Friendly staff. Large room with basic amenities.

What I liked about this hotel is. The office staff was very friendly and also it is one of the only hotels that we have stayed in over the past years that actually comes in an remakes your bed and puts clean towels in your room when your gone. That’s customer service
