Just awesome

This hotel is amazing and close to the best value for money anywhere. If you are in Portland, stay here. Park at the facility across the street. The staff is fantastic, bar and restaurants are classic gems, rooms are wonderful and classy, with all the touches of a boutique hotel experience compared to the soulless corporate brands. Love it!

We stayed in the 6th and top floor. On the face of it the room is fine but it was quite dark, the bathroom was tired - the sink taps barely worked at all and the fittings were loose. The balcony was nice but the layout of them meant the weed being smoked in the next room constantly came over and there was permanent noise from an adjacent building’s AC mechanism. Crucially the AC in the room was really really noisy. It couldn’t be turned down so was either on full or off and it was too hot for off. Made sleeping, partic with jet lag really hard and we needed to use earplugs. Bed was really comfortable though. $7 for a bottle of water in the room is ridiculous although there was filtered water in an adjacent room with complimentary snacks Staff were OK. Not particularly friendly at all. Cursory conversations on check in and check out only. Officious barman on the last night out us off having a nightcap as he said there was no room for us to sit. All in all staff didn’t make a great impression, sorry Portland’s downtown has really suffered so the immediate area is not great. Whilst not dangerous it is quite depressing. We stayed at the Governor 30 years ago - have to say this was a disappointing experience
