Great place to stay. Tough location although safe it is on an onramp and is loud. Plus by a park where many transients move through.

Liked: Cleanliness
A coffee table and a rug could’ve done wonders with the ambience and the way the TV was mounted. Made it hard for me to relax in bed or hang out on the couch and eat dinner. But I mean overall, it was a great spot just some thoughts on how to improve especially with what I paid for a night to seem like there could’ve been just a little bit more. But overall felt very safe and had a nice day.

Our room was extremely clean and this point is very important, especially to my wife. The room was comfortable, all appliances worked well, the bed was nice and the addition of a room fan was very nice. We both felt it was a good value. Note that it is in the heart of downtown Eugene OR.

Liked: walking distance to locations in town, and contactless check in. Disliked: very thin walls, gap under front door, no fan in bathrooms, booking indicated King size bed, and it was a full, and the AC/heater unit was filthy and incredibly loud.

The Local is an excellent motel. The facility is completely renovated, clean, and has nice amenities. There is no staff onsite. The motel is centrally located but I wouldn’t walk around in the neighborhood after dark.

Hipster Lodging. Good Stay

This is a cool hotel. There is a Japanese style vending machine market attached and no staff on site. Keyless entry. The room is updated and decorated in a hipster kind of modern retro vibe. Keurig for in room coffee and refrigerator and microwave. The train and road noise would bother a light sleeper.

Squeeky clean!

I was very happy to see clean really shiny tiles in the shower. everything was perfectly clean in the room. I totally understood why they leave earplugs in the room for you. The hotel is on a very busy street and also next to a railway where the train blows the whistle for a couple of blocks.

The room is beautiful, bed is incredibly comfortable. The heat in the room did not work however I found a space heater and after a few hours the room warmed up. I did arrive after a snow storm so it was abnormally cold. The motel itself is very nice the grounds are clean and well kept however there is a very large homeless population in the area. I’m a single female traveling alone coming to and from my room late at night as I was there for a volleyball tournament. I was on high alert given some of the activity taking place near and around the motel. This would be my only reason for potentially not visiting this motel again alone. If my husband was traveling with me I would feel far more comfortable. I enjoyed the convenient check in process with no reception desk. The room had everything you could need, well decorated, clean and cozy. Only recommendation is to replace the heater and clean up the area which is beyond your control.

Details

Nice to see an old motel updated rather than torn down. The remote was impossible to figure out even after referring to the onscreen user guide. Very, very frustrating. Why have an iron in the room if there is no ironing board? Yes, I iron my shirt before going out on an appointment. I like creamer in my morning coffee, even if it is powdered. Was the omission of that detail an oversight or your standard policy? It's the missing details which kept me from giving you a score of 'excellent'

Nice clean rooms tucked away and ample parking. Great place. Now the bad: There is no office and couldnt find a ph#. Had no way to get a key or code. So we asked a lady who pulled up and she got us a #to call. Its keyless entey and i never fot the emaul with the access code. Wd almost left and got another room. So when you book be sure you get a followup email with ur passcode to get into ur room. I would stay here again if needed.

The room was newly remodeled and very clean. The only issue was that the glass pane shower door had slipped off one track wheel and left shards of glass when first opening/closing it. Luckily I saw them and didn’t step on them. It was fixed right away after I reported it - thank you! The hotel sits at the corner of a major arterial street and a freeway on ramp, so it was very nosy even with the air conditioner fan on high. Otherwise it met our purpose for the stay.

It was very clean and efficient, with everything we needed. My only complaint is the oddness of the hour when things seemed to be really busy in the middle of the night but by 4 in the morning it was as if no one had ever been there but us. Otherwise we loved it😁

The property was fine. The accommodation clean and inviting. I did not appreciate the added damage deposit asked for after the booking had been made. I appreciate this operators concerns for their property and the fact that there are unscrupulous people out there, however I'm not one of them. Asking for $100 damage deposit prior to my arrival, was to say the least, off putting. I have not nor will I ever damage a hotel/motel that I have ever stayed at. To ask for a damage deposit to be used at the venders discretion (which I did not provide) is, in my opion an open ticket to exact arbitrary and unnecessary fees. To say I was put off by this is an understatement. If I us this property as a lodging choice in the future will be determined at a later date. The property was chaming, well maintained and updated. But, I've got a real problem with their tactics. I felt insulted.
