No options for parking.

I didn't actually stay, because I received an email from the hotel saying parking was not guaranteed. No options offered. I did not want to have to search for parking at night in a strange area with no clue of how far I'd be walking. Makes sense, right? I bought booking protection. When I tried to cancel my reservation, I inadvertently cancelled my protection. I am 70, I can walk pretty far, but should I have to?

Great family motel, full kitchen and super comfy beds. Late check out is 11:30 am so keep that in mind! But we enjoyed our stay and will go again!

Would stay again.

We liked the location. It was very clean. The bed was very comfortable. On if the towel racks and the hook in the bathroom door was missing. We told the management. They said a prior occupant did that and maintenance would fix it in 2 days.

No frills, Great neighborhood

Viking is awesome! Nearby train stop for easy access downtown. Staff is so nice and felt very safe. Only issue I had was pillows were extremely flat and not very comfortable. Also tv didn't seem to be working, but we managed without it. Would definitely stay here again for a good affordable place in Portland.

Convenient Location, Good Value

We flew in to PDX to visit friends in Portland and Vancouver. The motel was near the airport and close to Interstate 5. The room was basic, quite clean and included a comfortable chair. Parking was convenient and free. It is a short walk down to a Fred Meyer store (which includes a Starbucks) and there were a few bars and restaurants within a few blocks, a few of which we had the opportunity to try out. Nothing fancy, but the Viking Motel is an outstanding value in a convenient location. We will definitely stay here next time we visit Portland.

It is an older property, but that I know of not part of some huge chain. Other than it being slightly dated, it was a very clean, quiet, comfortable room and bed. Staff was great in explaining how things work.

Basic and quite adequate

The motel is old so it's not surprising that some wear and tear shows up-- chips on the bathroom door paint, for example-- but the room and bathroom were clean and functional and the bed comfortable. The place was quiet too, and the location is good for us. We stayed two nights and expect to stay another two soon.
