We had a pleasant stay at Avid in Portland. It’s near shopping like Target, CVS, Walmart, close to a gas station, bank, and close to the highway. Rooms were spacious enough and clean. Our toilet “ran” for about 10 min or so after flushing - every time, but we shut the door and you could hardly hear it. Grab n go breakfast was good. Water, sparkling water, and coffee all day. King bed was comfy. We asked to be accommodated on the same floor as others in our party and they nicely obliged. Front desk service was great. We visited on a busy weekend. Spring break and several sports tournaments going on in the area. If ever in town again, we’d consider this property again.

The people who worked the front desk were very rude and were too inconvenienced to look up from their phone for a simple question. It shouldn’t be called a breakfast. There was barely anything to eat other than apples, cereal, toast, and boiled eggs. It was just okay.

Spend the extra $ and stay somewhere else.

We stayed for a softball tournament. We were on the 1st floor. The walls are paper thin, was able to hear our neighbors TV and them snoring at night. Can hear anyone walking on the floor above, in the hallway even. Sounded like elephants. Our tournament ended up getting canceled 2nd day there. We asked if there was anyway we can get credit or a refund. She said since we went through hotels.com we'd have to contact them. Hotels.com was very nice and tried to get a a room credit for another stay some other day at another IHG location as we travel a lot for Softball. The manager denied their request. Ended up taking a loss on a day and went home so we can sleep in peace. I'll never stay at another IGH location again. Also waitig on pending charges to finalize, as so far I'm being charged $25 over what it was supposed to be, plus another $25 for whatever reason.

When i accidentally left some of my luggage at the hotel, they were very helpful and got it shipped back. I paid for the shipping of course but then again it was my fault for leaving it there
