Nice clean quiet hotel in perfect location for us. Breakfast is continental but lots of choices and excellent. Room clean, bed comfortable. Staff friendly but mellow (perfect).
Staff was awesome and were attentive to our needs. The place was accessible to public transit and the airport is not too far away. About 1 hour by train vs. 45 minutes by ride share.
I enjoyed my stay. This hotel is in a good location that’s walkable to convenient stores, food, and shopping.

Liked: Cleanliness
Rooms are a bit outdated as stated by most of the reviewers. The hotel is very well located. It is almost 50 steps away from the tram station, which can take you almost anywhere in Portland. The check-in process was seamless. The staff were all kind and helpful. The breakfast is average. The coffee served at breakfast was good quality.

Probably the best for "cost vs. performance" in all properties inside downtown Portland. The property isn't in the best quality but the location is convenient to browse downtown.
Lights are faulty and don't work well. Toilet hard to flush. Bed was very uncomfortable. Great customer service experience checking in, decent breakfast, easy parking.
