Viking Motel

Staff was attentive (family owned). Rooms were clean and seemingly recently renovated! Not a lot of bells-and-whistles but if you’re just looking for a nice place to sleep, it’s a great option

I was very happy with my stay at the Viking Motel. It was clean. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The shower has good water pressure. It is conveniently located by a light rail stop, New Seasons grocery, as well as a high-end consignment shop and coffee shop. It's also a short walk to the Kenton neighborhood, where I went for breakfast and thrift shopping. I will stay there again!

This property, is fantastic, a wee dated, however, with that being said. The service, cleanliness, maintenance, etc. absolutely amazing and with guests in mind, is the area around the property the same? Not so much but the hotel property is akin to an oasis. I will be coming back and recommending this property to everyone looking for a hotel experience in Portland. To the owners and staff, Thank you so much, truly, you are amazing.

Built in 1958, this is a genuine retro motel. The neighborhood location is excellent. despite being on a local highway, it was surprisingly quiet. A one- minute walk away is a great cafe (Fortuna) and across the street from there, an excellent market. Convenient Portland public transportation is right there if you don’t have a car. The owner Hino is delightful. When I asked if my room was newly painted, she said it was done four years ago! There wasn’t a single scuff mark on the walls! She prides herself on keeping Viking immaculately clean, and it shows, thanks to her and her staff. Room amenities: basic but sufficient. There were packets of shampoo and soap bars, but no “travel-size” conditioner or lotion. Bed was comfortable, towels were soft. There’s a microwave, mini fridge, coffee maker (coffee is supplied in a little container). no luggage rack, but a large desk had plenty of room to place a suitcase. You cannot beat the economic value of this comfortable lodging in Portland!

No ice machine but was a good place for a night.

As always this was an excellent experience. Very simple and very clean

Perfect for a one night passing town stay. Inexpensive.

Charming staff made us feel very welcome. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. Quite during the night. The AC kept the temperature at an OK level, but made quite a lot of noise. Location very good just a blokk from the tram stop so it was essay to get in to the city center (just $5 for an all day pass - a real bargain).
