Restaurant let the stay down. No room service available except a toasted sandwich and lunch bar snacks frickles) were not great and the sauce was terrible. Room was quite noisy with road works noise, and was really cold when we arrived, heat pump was really loud and took a long time to heat the space. The reception staff were really great though!

It was nice and central but limited-no parking onsite. Our room was tidy but not well cleaned, little details like the room cards on the bed had food and grease on them - makes you wonder what else wasn’t cleaned. Our extraction fan also didn’t work so the bathroom was very wet after showers. It was fine for 1 night.

I chose this hotel on the basis of its proximity to the train station, which is less than a block away. But, the Portlander bar/restaurant (inside the hotel building) was also very pleasant. No complaints.
