I called the front desk to inquire about the room and their policies, the man at the front desk was rude and kept hanging the phone up. He even answered the phone and left my voice talking while he placed the phone down. I was desperate at 2 am PST. I went to the location and was told checkout was at 1 pm but that was a lie. It was actually 11am now I know that’s standard but don’t lie to me to try and collect a late fee. The man at the front desk was upset that I chose to book through Expedia rather than purchasing with him directly. He began to talk to me in a manner to try to get a reaction being rude and even saying just because I booked through Expedia he can say all spots are filled. The room was horrible and smelled like cigarettes. Rips on the bedding and a leaking sound from the mini refrigerator. Luckily I only needed one night DO NOT GO HERE.

The experience was so average that is hard to say anything good or bad. If anything, there was no coffee maker in the room, and my dad likes hid coffee in the morning.

You do have to pay for parking, but the lot is decent. The place was pretty clean. The staff were courteous and communicative. It’s a cheaper hotel, but it wasn’t bad for the price. A little better than I expected, to be honest.

Exactly what you need

Perfect little hotel in the heart of downtown Portland, food trucks across the road and a 15 min walk to the overpriced hotels who charge an arm and a leg plus parking fees
