Solid Portland Hotel
Hotel Zags is a fun place. I like the quiet courtyard and great location (walkable to all parts of downtown; accessible public transportation is nearby). Decent value for the cost.

Hotel is fine and staff is excellent. But to advertise that there is “breakfast available” (something I specifically look for when choosing a hotel) and then to serve only bagels and coffee is unconscionable.

I stayed here for 2 nights, with my partner. The surrounding area patio was beautiful. They had very cool little events for the guess. Sadly the seat in my shower was broken I couldn’t use it and the parking around the hotel is kinda sketchy. Besides that it was very good.

Great place to stay!
Very clean and comfortable. Convenient location with walking distance to many places - mueums, restaurants, shops, parks, riverfront. Staff very attentive to needs. Wonderful outdoor patio with food service and firepits for making s'mores! Best ribs - had to order them both nights of stay. Secuity for elevator and parking great!
S'mores kit provided!
Lovely firepits and amazing wall of living plants.

Everything was good except for the fact that we weren’t told the button for make up room wasn’t working, so when we got back from our day the room wasn’t made up like we thought we requested. Otherwise wonderful experience and the fire pits were a really nice feature with the smores

I liked it. Overall the room decor and bathroom is in need up updating. Kept having to ask for my room to be cleaned and only one desk person wasn’t rude. The firepits in the common area are great though, and the bed was comfortable. Staying in suites allowed work with colleague possible

The bathroom was pretty gross. Dried boogers on the wall next to the toilet and the vent wasn’t working so water was dripping from the ceiling when we showered. It was one night, so we managed. But I wouldn’t have stayed longer. Everything else was nice.
