    Car park is super tight - be prepared to find on street parking if you arrive on a weekend evening, though you should be okay during the week (though it’s still tight to get in). Homeless guy was using it as a bathroom which was gross though. The room was very basic, felt a little grimy but I think that’s due to age. Shower ran super cold at peak times so suggest waking up early or showering in the early evening but it is overall good value… take these as tips for your stay rather than putting you off!

    It’s a good option to be close to downtown Portland - we were in walking distance of a concert venue we needed to go to, Powells, and a cool punk bar. Staff were really nice, couldn’t fault them. Appreciated being able to pay the deposit in cash too! Room had a blow dryer, fridge/freezer, a microwave, and TV with plenty of channels which was a great touch.

    Found two sewing needles in the carpet - rooms definitely could do with a more thorough clean.

    Big room (due to an upgrade) and the location was great.

    Bring ear plugs for the tram -- runs just outside, you can hear & feel it. The facility is being renovated right now, needs it badly, so leave behind any expectations - that said, it is clean and staff are very receptive to fixing anything you need.

    Great location of course, but above all, excellent customer service. Nothing was too much trouble, no question too silly. Staff were informed, funny, polite & accommodating when I was traveling to and intimidated by a strange city. Honestly haven't had better in a five star hotel - I have stayed in a few. Very clean & the replacing of the little soaps every day was also super appreciated. Thanks Nileshwar and other 2 guys on reception!! From start on the phone to check out and travel qs, you all were awesome.

    Front desk staff went way above and beyond to make sure I was comfortably settled in. She even helped me carry my luggage up the stairs! Great complimentary toiletries in bathroom.

    When I arrived I had to wait 15 minutes before someone showed up at the reception to let me in. I arrived exactly when I said I would and had been assured I could check in then. The cafes shut down at night and the options for local eating are limited.

    Large room with fridge and microwave. Good transportation links. I enjoyed seeing the trams from my room, though I imagine some might be disturbed by the sound of them going by. Plenty of local cafes during the day. The receptionists were friendly and helpful.

    The staff is very friendly and helpful. The location is great, however the light rail that goes just outside the window made it a bit difficult to sleep the first night

    We stayed on the third floor and right above us there was construction going on on the roof that didn't allow us to sleep very good and was very loud, they also make it hard to leave with all the debri on the floor. The parking lot is also a tight squeeze making it difficult to enter and leave.

    For the price that we paid this place was great place to stay, really got a good deal here. The staff was friendly and nice and it's location was pretty good.

    I could hear the trams rumbling by and the upstairs guest walking around. Normally I'm very sensitive to sound but while I could hear these things, they did not keep me from sleeping.

    The hotel was an inexpensive, no-frills place near where I needed to be, and included parking.

    Not much countertop in bathroom for my toiletries. Carpet hasn’t been vacuumed in I don’t know how long but didn’t really bother me.

    Absolutely top location! Steps to food trucks and easy walking distance to waterfront bars. Starbucks across the road for morning coffee. Staff are lovely.
