This place has great river view and is very nice. The front desk staff were so nice, the lobby and the room were well maintained and very clean, we will definitely come back.
The customer service by the staff is amazing. Mike informed us of shopping near by and the restaurant onsite. We had a balcony room overlooking the river. The trail along the river was a bonus. We definitely will stay here again.
Great location. Near mall and restaurants but also walking path along the river. Great little patio to sit on with sun and nice size rooms. Safe property and lobby and restaurant were beautiful and enjoyable to sit and relax in

Beautiful location right along the river. Large,clean rooms with fridge and microwave
Staff were all friendly and helpful. My balcony was right next to the river and was a pleasant place to sit and read and watch people ride bikes by and walk by.
Restaurant staff were also friendly and polite. Food was also very good. I would stay here again if I find myself in Eugene again.
We had a room with a river view! Very spacious and nicely decorated- bathroom was a great size as well. The lobby was very inviting. Cozy area past the lobby with couches / comfy chairs/ and a fireplace to sit and be with others. The restaurant was nicely decorated and very inviting. Fireplace/ couches/ comfy chairs to sit and have a drink/ eat in here as well if you didn't want to eat at a dining table. We had a great night stay here before heading to the airport the next morning!
