The staff was great and the location is nice for work. But this place is in serious need of updating. We are talking about some things from the 1980's, maybe even the 70's. popcorn ceiling, the microwave was so noisy and very dated. Coffee maker worked.... sometimes. Hallway paint from the 80's. We were here for a convention, and that was convenient, but it would be nice if that place got a reboot.

I was genuinely surprised by how poor my stay was here, especially given the price point. While there was no obvious visible dirt in the room, the overall experience felt unclean and very dated. The hotel has an old, tired feel that comes through immediately in the room, hallways, and common areas. The biggest issue was the HVAC system. The temperature was wildly inconsistent — heat was uncomfortably hot, while switching to cool air made the room too cold with an aggressive fan. There was no way to achieve a comfortable middle ground, which made sleeping difficult. The room itself had several quality-of-life problems. The curtains did not fully cover the windows, letting in exterior light at night and early morning. The windows were also drafty, which compounded the temperature issues. In the bathroom, the shower dispensers were clearly not refilled, which felt careless. The lobby and hallways had a musty, stuffy smell that made the entire property feel run-down rather than welcoming. Again, nothing overtly filthy — but the atmosphere suggested deferred maintenance and a lack of attention to detail. For the cost, this stay felt significantly overcharged. I wouldn’t return unless there were meaningful updates to the rooms, HVAC, and overall upkeep. There are better options in Portland at this price point.

Rooms are a bit outdated as stated by most of the reviewers.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.
