Banfield Studios

I made a reservation, but when I arrived, there was no room for me. You had cancelled my reservation, and I had to get another hotel. Very inconvenient. To top it all, you charged me a cancellation fee, but it was YOU, NOT ME, who cancelled my reservation. Please cancel my cancellation fee. I have complained to Expedia. Thanks, but no thanks.

I booked two rooms here for two nights. Checking in was confusing and frustrating due to Expedia and their hotel system not communicating well, apparently. I originally booked two king bed rooms, and ended up with one room with a king bed and a room with two double beds. The room with the double beds had a broken handle on the toilet, so you could not flush it without opening the tank. Luckily I could do this, but not everyone can. The parking lot had very limited spaces. The nicest thing about this place was that there was a gate to enter the parking lot. I would not stay here again.

The property was dirty with trash littering the stairways. The rooms were small with poor quality furnishings. A king room was reserved but "not available." No suitable alternative was offered. I left the property and found suitable accommodations elsewhere. Banfield studios refused to refund even a portion of my two-day payment. This is the worst motel I have ever experienced.

Was a good place to go so we could be within a few miles from our granddaughter

Dirty

DON'T BELIEVE THE PICS!!!!!! this place is super run-down and has long-term families from Venezuela living there with a million kids running around and screaming until midnight!!! There are not enough parking spots to accommodate all vehicles within the gates, so first come-first serve. The pics online are probably when the place was first remodeled 20 years ago but looks nothing like that now! Carpet is stained rainbow colors (not in a good way!), towels arw stained, toiletries are left used/empty, NO HOUSEKEEPING!!!, A/C broke while i was there and it was 90 degrees, no table or chair in the room like the pic shows, bedding is stained and old, and best of all - I FOUND ROACHES!!!!!!!!!!!!! total scam of a place! DO NOT STAY HERE!!!!!!

This property should not be an Orbitz listing. The rooms are being rented by families who are in transition - lots of kids running around. An important place for them but not a place for people visiting Portland. We were given a "smoke-free" room that was not and the manager gaslit us that it was fine. We could not park near our room. We asked for a second room and it also smelled. My daughter stayed somewhere else because she couldn't deal with the smell and I stayed one night and left afterwards (losing my payment for the second night). Do not stay here.

Parking was promised but when we returned at midnight from a celebration of life we were told that gated parking was full, we couldn’t park in front of our room and would have to find street parking. We eventually got the night manager to respond, but he smelled like alcohol and initially refused us parking even tho parking was included. When we expressed that parking was supposed to be included he suddenly found us a non-secure parking space. He & the security guy were truly awful, so was everything about the place.

Good location, very affordable, was very quiet very nice staff. Stained sheets, but smells okay.

Took 24 hours for my bathroom to be cleaned up after the toilet overflowed. Families living on the property. Only 4 channels on tv. Stains on the walls. No plug in for my phone next to the bed. Cool that it was close to things, but that's about it.

Please listen to the negative reviews on this property; not the positive ones. The one positive thing I can say about it is that it felt pretty safe, as there is a huge gate that prevents people from entering the hotel area without a key. First, they said that my reservation (through Expedia) had been cancelled. That seemed bogus, although they did have a room, and they did match the Expedia rate. The room was really unclean. Nothing seemed clean, not the floor, sink, bathtub, floor, walls, etch. Everywhere you looked at the walls, they had... something on them. Different things, but clearly the walls were never washed from splashes? Dirty hands? Who knows. The towels felt unclean. Things are banged up and broken. No bedside tables or lamps in the room I had. Lights on outside the rooms that shone through the blackout curtains, so if you woke up at 3 am, the light was bright enough for you to think it was 9 am. The whole place is grungy. It's clearly a long-term living situation for many families, which is fine, but it gives off a feeling of these poor families having to live in squalor. One sorry blanket on the bed with a couple of holes in it.

This place is worth the money and not as bad as it looks from the outside. If you can put your judgment aside, it’s one of the cheapest places in town and not that bad for its location and general look.

Good value for money. Basic facilities, but fine for a place to stay. Convenient to buses and train.

Very dirty, old, run-down cheap place to crash in a beat-up part of town. Blazing ceiling lights in hallways burning into room window made it impossible to darken the room for sleep at night with cheesy window shades. Tenants, in number, “hang out” in front of their rooms and common areas, noisy, wall banging, right near loud Sandy Blvd. Shady things going on in neighborhood. Was worried about my car being parked there. Only “plus” was it was $70 a night. Many seemed to be “living there” full-time. I DO NOT RECOMMEND.

Front desk couldn’t figure out what to do for 15min and then called the manager(Indian). Other tenants were loud, sometimes playing music at midnight. Area looked shady and the property even more so. The room wasn’t clean and the sheets weren’t washed i believe. The AC breathes dirty smell. No way I’d return here.

It was good but no microwave

The gentleman who ran the front desk was excellent. Very polite. Very nice. The property itself is a mix of a hotel and a long-term stay for families. I think there was like 10 people living in a room. The parking lot was full of kids and people playing actually sitting and laying on my car. I took a shower here. Packed up my stuff and left. I did not feel comfortable staying there overnight. I'm sure it would have been fine. I'm just paranoid. You get what you pay for. Remember that. Again, the front desk guy was very polite and professional. Which I appreciated.

Staff was great, and helped us work through a reservation snafu. However, the room itself was pretty beat up and dirty (sticky floors, stained towels, etc). Seems like maybe the big bosses are trying to run it on a shoestring budget for staffing and repairs and need to step it up a bit

Insgesamt nicht so gut, Erst nicht das Zimmer bekommen, welches gebucht. Am nächsten Tag umgezogen in ein anderes Zimmer. Bettdecke gab es erst nach Nachfrage Das Hotel ist schon ein wenig in die Jahre gekommen, aber der Manager war sehr nett.

This is a budget friendly hotel. The property was clean enough. There seem to be a number of long term residents and this led to a fair amount of noise.
