Best Western Plus Mill Creek Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Nice room, convenient and comfortable, with a nice breakfast arrangement with the restaurant next door."

Holiday Inn Salem by IHG

8/10 Good

"terrific that it was dog friendly with outdoor grass area. although I read they would provide dog bowl, that was not my experience. I got the one bedroom suite to have the space ro work separate from sleep, it was very spacious. would have been helpful if the explained it was a joining room situation as the connecting door slammed shut and i was separated from my dog in middle of the night until they came up with alternate room key. I would stay again. location is good"

Super 8 by Wyndham Woodburn

8/10 Good

"The staff were great and friendly. The amenities like breakfast were nice to have. The 1st day the pancake machine was broken so there wasn't a lot of filling options but it was running the next day. Pool and hot tub were fun and were open 6a-10p which is great. My biggest issue was that the building is outdated but that is absolutely not the staffs fault. There is rust everywhere and the rooms and air unit had a mildewy smell. We also found some garbage under the bed from previous guests. Would love to see some more breakfast options like toast or bagels"
