The room was clean, comfortable, and sufficient for my brief stay downtown. It was close to public transportation and the event I was attending, and had a huge choice of food trucks available across the street. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Super convenient, quiet and safe location. The staff was nice and always attentive of our needs. Having the food trucks across the street was a nice treat, as well as coffee places close by. It’s my place to stay next time I visit Portland!

Clean, quiet, conveniently located. Place was small but cozy. For the price, better than I expected. My only complaint is having to pay for parking. Unless there is some city code that requires the motel to charge, it seems exploitive to add that extra charge.
