At my age, staying in a vintage motel was fun for the nostalgia. I appreciate that this property has been updated enough to be comfortable without breaking the vibe. I was comfortable, but I do have reservations about staying here again. Most notable is the location. It isn't close to any sights or scenes that PDX offers. If you don't have a car, this is not the place for you. If you do have a car and don't mind driving, the location isn't bad- close to a couple different highway ramps that can send you to the points of the compass. This appears to be in a neighborhood that is beginning to experience gentrification of a sort.

Staff was friendly, check in/out was painless. Nothing fancy, but room was clean and tidy, and the bed was comfortable. Was an added perk to have an actual coffee pot in the room rather than a keurig type coffee maker!

Totally adequate. I was visiting family in the area and this is well located. Close to mass transit, bars and restaurants. Not fancy, but clean and convenient. Staff was fine- not super friendly but not rude. Again- adequate. It did the job for a decent price.

We were really impressed. For such a low-cost motel it was great! The gentleman at the front desk was very friendly, our room was clean, the towels were large and good quality, the mattress was a little more firm than what we usually sleep on but still comfortable, the water pressure in the shower was wonderful. The only minor things were the lack of counter space in the bathroom where the good lighting was to do makeup vs the lack of good lighting at the large table/mirror in the main room, the lack of conditioner (they did offer decent quality shampoo bar soap), and the lack of a heater in the room, which fortunately wasn't an issue for us this time because it was still warm enough to not need one. We go to Portland fairly frequently and will definitely be back!

The place is next to the mono rail and a main road. My wife had trouble to sleep the first night. So the next morning, we wanted to cancel the remaining days and find another place that my wife could get a good rest. Nevertheless, the manager showed no consideration and refused to give any refund, although he had a plenty of time to rent out the room again.

Excellent place for the price

The bed is excellent, and has a fleece blanket instead of the ubiquitous down comforter. Very quiet. We safely took a walk at 11pm. Have Stayed here many times and will continue to do so when we are in Portland.

Room smelled of cigarette smoke. It is an old motel so may just be stuck in the walls and ceiling. Was hoping to take a bath but there was no drain plug.

I like the amenities for the price. I think the management works hard to make your stay comfortable in a clean space. I like the mini fridge and microwave as an added convenience

We stayed at the Viking Motel for 1 night in the Labour Day long weekend and were impressed by its cleanliness and spaciousness. We travelled by motor bike so at first we weren’t sure about having the bike parked out front but upon arrival and our stay we felt confident it was safe.
