We stayed here 1 night because our flight was cancelled, and we wanted a cheap option in the central district (paid about $85 after tax). This hotel is on the East side of Portland, about a half mile from the Burnside Bridge (lots of things to do on Burnside St on the west side). The actual hotel room was disappointing... More

Rooms are marginally renovated but bathrooms are not- quiet enough all things considered Folks its an exterior corridor hotel in a marginal neighborhood- it has lost 2 franchises in the last couple years... Service people were great but really they know it, you get what you pay for Nice to have some late night food stalls open nearby however! More

The folks working there seemed nice enough but the fact that they spread out group booking multiple rooms to either side of our room was in and of itself a huge fail. Not having their ONE employee at night even step out of the office so they can hear if there's any noise being made is another huge fail. Blaming... More

I think if you have the right expectations, this place is just fine. The staff was lovely on check in and our room was ready early. They offered good advice on where to eat breakfast in the morning and were always pleasant. Yes, it is dated, but it was clean, the bed was comfortable, and very convenient for us. There... More

My co-worker and I needed to find an inexpensive place to stay...the price was too high considering the type of hotel it turned out to be. It is not in the greatest neighborhood. There is a strip club located right across the street. When we opened the blinds up, there was a man peeing right outside, the towels had holes... More

For Location, this place cannot be beat! It's just a few blocks from the Willamette River. You can a bicycle or go for... More

I was traveling with my boyfriend and my brother with his family. We came to the thriftlodge as a last resort because we have been traveling all day and were all exhausted. My boyfriend was going to rent a room for himself because we are not married, and I was going to stay with my brother and his family in... More

I travelled down from Seattle by train and stayed at the Portland Central Thriftlodge with 7 other guys for my best friends bachelor party. The hotel is in moderate walking distance from the station as well as downtown Portland. The rooms were spare but clean and slept 4 per room comfortably, though the hotel is showing some age. The rate... More

This place is older and has seen many years since its last update, but we found it to be clean and reasonably well-kept, with a friendly and helpful staff. Our room was comfortable and quiet, and the shower had great water pressure. Convenient location. More
