Did not like cleaning staff knocking at 07:45 and entering our room, even though we had the “ do not disturb “ sign on the outside doorknob. I told the front desk staff about it.

Liked: Cleanliness
Over the last couple of years we have always stayed at this location for simplicity and proximity to the train station/system. This trip we noticed that the included breakfast has been severely limited and reduced. Part of the reason we have selected this hotel was because the breakfast was great. in 2025 that doesn't seem to be the case anymore. In its place is automated pancake maker and something that resembles eggs... The juice selection is now more watered down than ever and overall selection is very limited. What happened?

Solid hotel for a family stay downtown

I chose this hotel as the location and price point met my criteria. I was in Portland visiting my son and needed to be near downtown. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of my stay. The hotel initially looked dated but as I checked in I noted how clean the lobby and how professional the staff was. This quality extended to my room which was large, super clean and very comfortable. Additional bonuses included reasonably priced parking on site and a nice breakfast provided in the morning. As the name suggests this hotel is near the University and I loved that it was close to a nice selection of food carts and public transportation.

The hotel itself was very nice , the staff were always pleasant , warm and helpful. We brought our dog and needed to walk him late , there was always a staff member at the front desk. The continental breakfast was well stocked and really tasty. The only complaint was the surrounding area , lots of homeless and drug addicted but that is not the fault of the hotel
