Bless the photographer who took pictures of the rooms, made them look so much bigger than the bedroom size they actually are. This is more of a hostel than hotel. The rooms and shared bathrooms are very well maintained and in good working order. The walls are thin and the noise of other guests entering,leaving, and having conversations can clearly be heard while in the room. Quiet hours were well enforced and noise was not an issue overnight. The air-conditioning was slightly less than adequate but the room stayed a tolerable (slightly warm) temp. I would definitely stay again if budget was an issue.
Been here a few times and every time the room is neat, clean, comfortable, and pleasantly simple. The bathrooms stay clean and there has never been an issue with sharing. Hosts are pleasantly available and invisible at the same time, like a good wait staff. My go to in Eugene for sure.
It was a better experience than the first time. I’m glad we gave it another chance. The costumer service was very good. The room was clean and very comfortable.
Nice comfortable room with very comfy bed. Great location for walking. Close to many restaurants. Nice shared kitchen and bathrooms. Great price. Only inconvenience is parking if you have a car though there is a paid lot right across the street
I feel it's important to temper any review with the correct expectation going in: THIS IS NOT THE RITZ CARLTON, nor does it profess to be. Don't expect luxury; that's not what this place is.
I wanted an inexpensive place to sleep, was not traveling with my wife, and needed to be close to UO campus. This place checked all the boxes. The room was clean with new carpet; sheets were immaculate; the room was small but serviceable (desk, locking door, etc.)
It's communal living -- shared bathroom and well-appointed kitchen (fridge, microwave, coffee maker, Keurig), so there's a bit of hallway/stairs noise from other guests, which is to be expected.
If you need a place to crash for a night or two near campus, this place works. It felt a bit like a nice European hostel.
One suggested improvement would be a room safe.

Great location, Good price. You get a basic but nice clean room with TV and comfortable bed. You have shared kitchens and bathrooms. Not fancy but it works and great price compared to hotels.
I flew into Eugene to visit family and this place was perfect for me. It reminds me of a typical European hostel, low key but cozy.
The location was the biggest draw -- right across the street from one bakery and only a 10-15 minute walk to another. Easy breakfast! You can walk to campus, to the 7/11, to see a movie or go to a bookstore. If something is too far away, you can walk to the bus station and get a day pass for only $3 to travel anywhere in the city.
Truly a little piece of Europe right here in the US!
It is what it advertises. You share a bathroom (we were on the third floor - cheaper, and 5 rooms shared one bathroom, but you could go to the more plentiful bathrooms on other floors for some "quality time"). And you share a kitchen. Again, the 3rd floor kitchen was minimal, but baking up a pizza and eating the meal in the second floor kitchen was nice. It is convenient to the University, and very quiet. Comfortable bed and good (maybe excessive) air conditioning.
There is a rehab center next door and sketchy folk hanging around. It was never mentioned in any of the prior reviews. There was partying going on in the hotel and she did not get a good night’s sleep. It did not feel safe for my daughter, a UO student. The shared bathrooms were not clean.
The property was clean and neat beyond expectations; however, the CONTACTLESS check-in was inconvenient, frustrating, and took several calls to Expedia. I was not the only person either. 3 others were also having the same issue that same night. We all did manage to get checked-in, but I will never choose that option again.
I was In Eugene, Oregon for the 2025 Eugene Marathon and had the opportunity to stay at the Hotel Counting Z's.....What a GREAT EXPERIENCE.... Very convenient for travel from and to the airport - not need for a rental car as there are multiple bicycle rental stations for travel and exploring.
From the onset, the Hotel Counting Z's has great street presence on 11th Ave with a short distance walk up High Street to 6th Avenue for Marathon Participant Pick up and transportation to Haywood Field on Sunday AM. Also, it was an easy walk up Oak Street to the Eugene Saturday Market. This made for a quiet and peaceful sleep before the Sunday AM Marathon...
The Hotel Counting Z's has 3 stories with multiple common bathrooms per floor. The queen size room on 3ed floor was more than enough space and had a small closet and comfortable chair for relaxing...There was even a common kitchen and meal room on the 2en floor with kitchen and multiple coffee makers. The kitchen provided many opportunities to engage other runners
Will look forward to another stay should my running roads takes me to Eugene....THANKS *****
