40th wedding anniversary!

We were there at Valley River Inn to spend our 40th wedding anniversary! Our wedding reception was held at Valley River Inn 40 years ago. The place has been updated. Front desk was very friendly. They upgraded us to a river view. Very nice.

Not Great.

Not great. Bed was old spring bed that left us both tired and sore in the morning. Room was one of few with no balcony. Shower grout was black...not sure if it was old and dirty or actually black to hide being old and dirty. Overall not impressive at all, especially after a remodel. I've stayed before the remodel and it was decent, but I suspect hotels.com gets all the old crappy rooms to fill.

Review of 2 different nights

The lady at the bar I believe her name was Scarlet? Seemed like she didn’t want to be there but all the other bar tenders were great! We stayed there 2 times and the room and bed were great but we didn’t get a balcony room either time though our friends did and I had booked the rooms for both of us. All in all the stay was very nice except for those 2 things.

My wife and I were coming over from the coast to get some sunshine. I had called ahead to see if I could get an early check in. They could not guarantee it which was understandable. I asked if we could sit by the pool when we got here until our room was ready. The lady that I talked to on the phone said yes. Then when I got here the staff refused to honor what she had said. They would not let me talk to a manager and one of the employees literally said, "whoever you talked to is a liar". I would not recommend this hotel to anyone traveling to Eugene.

Had a great stay, the room was clean, large, and comfortable, the air conditioner worked really well, really came in handy during the heatwave. It was recently renovated so everything was new, and didn’t seem like they’ve spared any expense, there’s a white noise machine! It’s located right next to the riverfront trail and they have bikes available to guests. Would definitely stay here again if I’m back in the area.
