Portland trip May 2025

fun trip! Great location. getting around by mostly walking or taking Max. Max was very easy and affordable. we didn't rent a car for the 5 days we were in Portland. The Saturday University Farmers market was great! We ate really good food and Kens bakery was a favorite. Washington Park is a must, and of course we went to Cannon Beach with a relative. The tide pools were super fun. I liked walking in the different neighborhoods and seeing the houses etc. We felt safe.

Wasn’t as clean as other reviews made it sound like. Room has stains and grime. Bed was clean enough but the fixtures and bathroom were a bit dirty. Staff was nice.

Suggestion: provide Chargers or plug-ins or USB adapters for devices such as iPads, iphones. I was surprised to find none and had forgotten to bring any in case.

Great location and spacious room. Close to different public transport options. Staff were awesome! Very accommodating and nice, they got us in earlier than expected. Some parts of the room needed more cleaning attention such as the couch. The pull out bed needs updating, could feel the age. Other than that, would definitely recommend.

It was very nice but when we checked in the clerk did not tell us we would need sheets for the fold-out couch. He also did not offer the free bottle of wine, which we later received upon request. Good, safe location.

I had a really nice multi-night stay here. Perfect location to many stores and restaurants with parking on site (extra fee). There's a really cute wine and cheese hour to try a local wine and the room was extremely clean and comfortable.
