Wonderful
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
The staff was very courteous. Easy/secure parking under the building. Very comfortable beds with an extra pillow top and plenty of pillows. The location is walkable to many cute dining and shopping options and we felt very safe walking around in the evening.
I found amazing restaurants in walking distance and great shopping. I recommend Q restaurant and Dolly Olive. Great outdoor stores, gluten free bakery (Petunias), brew pubs, and bookstores near. I loved my trip.
Old school but reliable and clean
Excellent staff
Needs in-room coffee
TV directory is out of date and incorrect
Needs exterior door card lock

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The staff seemed cheerful and professional and the hotel appears to have the bones of a classy place, but the mattress was terrible and the only view from my room was into the bottom of a very deep light well.

Decent older hotel with thinner walls and a bit dated. Fine for the price in downtown Portland.
