Housekeeping was cut back to every other day, including towels and bed makeup, which was inconvenient. Desk staff and location great. Room was somewhat strangely laid out but plenty roomy for a longer stay. Nice view to the harbor. Breakfast handy but limited help-yourself selection. Parking next door with free in and out very useful in parking constrained area.

Okay, but not what I expected😒

It's a nice place, but parking was ridiculous, $30 a night makes no sense for Portland! Its across the street and very dimly lit. I did not feel safe with all the homeless people wandering around. The room was small, but clean. Going down to the pool at night with kids, you have to go by the bar and all the men stare, it was uncomfortable, not to mention very loud!

All and all…a nice place to call a home base,

The staff was super, attentive, friendly and quick with answers and solutions. Great experience there. The hotel is wonderfully located, walkable to so much and easy to drive in and out of. The room itself needs some attention. A bit worn, not horrible…but could be so much better. The pictures online of the two queen bed room were misleading, as they showed a couch (which was an important feature for me to have friends over). The staff moved me to a king room…which has a couch. They said the only rooms with couches were the king rooms. The kitchen could have been a little better stocked…wine/bottle opener, a pair of scissors. Nothing that made the stay less than stellar…all was provided at the front desk. The parking…ehhhhhh. It is not attached to the hotel, but across the street. It’s a public garage with no dedicated hotel spaces. In inclement weather, it probably would not have been fun to dash back and forth with groceries and such. Also, garages, late at night or super early in the morning always feel a little sketchy. I had no problems but it was a little unnerving when I left at 4 am. All and all, a great place to stay, a base camp for adventure and exploring. I’d stay there again.

I booked the two bed room but they did not have the room when I checked in! I had to sleep in the sofa bed and it was very uncomfortable. The floor was a little dirty. I found some snacks on the floor. The breakfast was nice, and the location was very convenient though.

Affordable and great for families, the staff was nice, and the beds were very comfortable. The location is great, it's a bit out of the busy downtown but a very close walk to nice restaurants and all the main attractions. I would stay here again.
