This Days Inn is in a bit of a tricky location. You have to either break off the I-205 or I-84 to get to it with little signage. If you don't know your way around Portland you can miss it very easily.
All in all a decent stay...The other reviewer was right. The manager really seems to be a little grumpy all the time, but the girl at the night desk was really quite nice to me.
For it's price, it's in a pretty good location because you can just spin off to the 84 or take 82nd Ave down to the connecting streets to the 205 and go most anywhere in Portland or Washington.
I would rent a vehicle though if staying here. There are active bus stops nearby but most of the routes are a fairly long ride especially if you want to hit the gardens, etc in Portland
.
And they do keep the rooms pretty clean. Your basic Days Inn...does the job and you can sleep safe. Free wi-fi...always a necessity for me for planning day trips, hours of business and travel destinations.
Nice location, wonderful view

We were traveling through Portland and needed a place to stay. We've stayed at Days Inn in the past so we trusted them. The view was great, we could see over downtown and the rooms were very clean.
Excellent service and value

Nothing fancy, just you're basic motel (with a microwave and fridge). Very friendly front desk, clean and reasonably quiet. It's just a few steps from the MAX line to the airport and downtown. Nothing much nearby except a few restaurants. Discounted, non-refundable rooms available on the Day's Inn website. I plan to stay again.
Rude manager

This is a decent, moderately nice hotel. I booked through BCAA and they quoted a price of $60 for 2 queen beds for two adults and 3 kids. But when we got there, they didn't honor the rate and charged us $85. Manager said the internet rate was not updated. If we werent so tired, we would have just walked off and checked in at the other hotels nearby. Manager was so rude and doesn't know about common courtesy to customers. One lady was going to get some milk during the continental breakfast and the rude manager said to her "don't spill it." What is he, the milk police?
Extremely Rude Service

I was planning on spending the night in Portland because I needed to fly out of the Portland airport in the morning. I figured since I was only staying in Portland for one night, I might as well get a place close to the airport, and very cheap.
Well, you get what you pay for. I did not end up staying at the Days Inn Portland, because when I called to book the room, I was treated more rudely than I have been treated by anyone in some time.
The man answering the phone was clearly "ethnic", and he did not speak English very well. When I gave him my credit card information, I had to spell out my entire street address, letter for letter, including the name of my town and state. When he repeated the spelling of my address back to me, it was completely incorrect, and I had to correct him one letter at a time. He then became frustrated and informed me that I "can't spell". It was odd to hear this from someone who was clearly incapable of spelling very simple street and address names.
At this point I realized that I was never going to give this man my business. But being the polite person that I am, I did not want to say that directly. Instead I asked him if I could call him back because I needed to rethink my check-in date. To this he replied "don't call back".
In all of my years of being a consumer, I have never been treated in this manner by someone who was in a position to gain my business. To insult someone at the exact moment that they are giving you their credit card information does not strike me as a very intelligent business practice.
I am a budget conscious consumer, and I like to save money. But I have certain minimum expectations from those to whom I would open my wallet, such as basic human decency.
