For it being one of the cheapest options in Portland (in off season) it met expectations: was clean and comfortable. I stayed in a King room for 2 nights and didn’t have any issues. Breakfast is okay, nothing special just your regular continental. Good location, friendly staff.

It was what we expected. Just a room. The heat was through a very loud vent above the bed. Needs to be up dated to more efficient and quieter system. To no fault there own there were extremely loud guests in the hallway between 12 mid night and 2;30am. I talked to them about it in the morning. They did take our valet parking fee off our bill. Very nice but still made for a unrestful night. Typical hotel breakfast included. We did not eat it but it’s what you expect.

Super easy check-in, nice included breakfast buffet. I will say the $40 a night for valet parking is a bit excessive. However, the individuals parking in the cards were super nice and responsive.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff was okay, but the welcome could have been warmer at check in. I wasn't offered information, water anything upon check in. I had to ask the wifi info and breakfast info/times. At one point during stay I'd asked if they could offer me an umbrella as I was walking in the snow and the guy at the desk laughed and said he only had them for sale and couldn't offer me anything. That was rude. Other hotels offer umbrellas or supply at least one in the room. I returned one evening asking if there was available water to refill my cup (like the thermos at breakfast) and the woman at desk was rude and flat out declined that was possible.

room was clean. Clerk was friendly. BUT, $40.00 valet fee to move your vehicle about 100 feet into lot is ridiculous ! Shampoo in shower was empty. Not noticed until after getting wet in shower. Location is good for waterfront

The room seemed clean and was very spacious! The bathroom however had a weird pink stain above the toilet on the ceiling. The front desk was very kind and helpful to me. However when my boyfriend forgot his charger and came back the same evening they were unable to located it. He also called back several times and they said it was lost. Overall it was a good stay and wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again!

Clean room minus a duvet on the floor in the closet. Mattress is spring and very hard. Everything was decent and adequate. Nothing fancy. Valet was $40 a night so we parked on the street and then my car got keyed. Included breakfast is again decent. Highly recommend going to the restaurant in the building (that you annoyingly have to walk outside to go to) called Friendly Toast. Very good food. Great off season rates at this hotel, have stayed before and will likely stay again. Just nothing fancy.
