Very friendly staff, the building has character and clearly has love in its design. Minor notes of age (rust on the shower’s shampoo bottle nozzle for example), but would happily stay again.

Great location for staying in downtown Portland. Nice facility, friendly and helpful staff. This time they had a very nice wine social with very good live music in the evening. I have stayed there many times. This time my room seemed recently renewed and in excellent condition.
