Sometimes, you’ve got money to blow on your trip. No expense is spared; you stay at the finest hotels, eat at the best restaurants, and basically blow money like it’s going out of style. Other trips? Not so much. When you’re working with a tight travel budget, you need to make every dollar stretch as far as it can - and that includes your accommodations.

Lucky for you, there are plenty of great places to stay for those trips when you want to travel but your wallet is feeling a bit on the empty side. Here are the best hotels in Portland if you’re on a budget.

Residence Inn—Lloyd Center

Why it made the list

One great way to save money during a trip? Cutting down on food costs. All the rooms at Residence Inn by Marriott Portland Downtown/Lloyd Center come equipped with full kitchens, which will save you money on eating out (and while this is definitely the least stylish of the Residence Inn properties in Portland, it’s also the most affordable, often renting for as low as $109).

Monticello Motel

Why it made the list

Motels are synonymous with affordability, and the Monticello Motel is no different. There’s nothing fancy about this property, but it’s clean, comfortable, and the most affordable deal in town (we’ve seen prices go as low as $60 per night).
