Room was clean, had a great view of river and a small balcony. They need to have end tables on both sides of the beds for phone charging and a book. Also would be great to have a lamp in middle of beds on that table. Service was great. Restaurant has very nice breakfast and great bar at night.

The room and bed were comfortable, the location was close to the highway. But the only luggage carts were at the lobby even though the property was very spread out. This was very inconvenient. The TV volume was broken, we could hear the train and highway noise, and the rooms weren’t very soundproof. The restaurant looked great but closed too early for us.

We loved our stay. It was our first trip to Eugene to check out the college for our senior. With so many choices around the area, we were glad to have stayed at Valley River Inn. Check in and out were a breeze. The facilities were clean and well appointed and maintained. Safety was never compromised even as the hotel is close to shopping centers, walking/biking paths, freeways etc. The restaurant on site was amazing. Hostesses were accommodating, server was delightful and knowledgeable about the cuisine (husband is a chef and appreciates this), and the dining area was thoughtfully designed. The only minor issue is that our flight was very early and so we were not able to receive an itemized receipt at check out. If you need proof of expenditure for work or other write offs, this should be planned for ahead of time. No big deal and we will definitely return!

Beautiful lobby, easy parking and a great location. Beautiful walks along the river each morning. Unfortunately, service was hit-or-miss. We had a surly guy check us in, despite being quite nice to him. Check out was better. Unfortunately, our room was kinda old. The door didn't work without slamming it shut, the screen door to the outside wasn't much better. And you could hear everything next door and upstairs.

Nice property, if a bit far from campus (not walking distance). Clean rooms, well maintained property. My husband went down to the bar for a drink before we left for dinner, sat at the bar for about 5 minutes, and no one greeted him or said “we’ll be right with you”, didn’t even acknowledge him. It wasn’t that busy. He decided to leave. Other than that, we had a positive experience.

This is an older motel but in a nice setting along a river. There is a mall nearby and several dining options within walking distance. Our room was near the end of the hall where there was a seating area in the hallway. People tended to sit there to visit and it was very noisy. The women who helped us with checkin seemed to be bothered that someone was there to wait on. Overall, the stay was just okay.
