Good location, reasonably comfortable, overpriced.

It took a long time to check in, only one person working the counter, she said the computer system was having issues. Room was clean, shower was nice, bed ok. They have a restaurant in-house that was comfortable and good food. They do not provide any coffee/breakfast for their guests and tell you there is an Elmers next door. A little spendy for what you get.

Terrible Experience – Wrongfully Removed & Denied

I had a truly awful experience at the valley river inn My significant other and I were wrongfully removed from our room due to a booking error related to my ID—an issue that was entirely out of my control. The staff initially promised a refund for the inconvenience, but days later, they denied my refund based on a completely false claim that marijuana had been smoked in the room. Not only was this accusation baseless, but it also felt like an excuse to avoid honoring their promise. We did not engage in any such activity, and the fact that they waited days to fabricate this reason is both unprofessional and dishonest. Beyond this, the way we were treated was unacceptable. Instead of attempting to resolve their own booking mistake with professionalism, they chose to remove us from the property and later refuse the refund we were assured. This is not how a reputable hotel should conduct business. I strongly advise against staying here. If this is how they treat paying guests—by making errors, breaking promises, and then inventing false reasons to keep money owed—it speaks volumes about their lack of integrity. Spend your money somewhere that values honesty and customer service.

Would come again!

Great experience for the stay. Stopped through Eugene on a road trip and looked at a number of different hotels. Valley River said they just renovated so we figured it must be clean, new, and a good overall option, which this most definitely was! Would stay again as the room was spacious, shower was nice, and bathroom was large. Nothing but positives here.

What's bugging us...

It startedboff delightful as the lobby and staff were very nice. The rooms are large and comfortable. However after showering we discovered ants inthe bathroom and on the counter. The front desk responded and gave us another room. This was at 10 pm. The new room waa on the second floor which we discovered in the morning also had ants in the bathtub.
