Solid hotel for a family stay downtown

I chose this hotel as the location and price point met my criteria. I was in Portland visiting my son and needed to be near downtown. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of my stay. The hotel initially looked dated but as I checked in I noted how clean the lobby and how professional the staff was. This quality extended to my room which was large, super clean and very comfortable. Additional bonuses included reasonably priced parking on site and a nice breakfast provided in the morning. As the name suggests this hotel is near the University and I loved that it was close to a nice selection of food carts and public transportation.

The hotel itself was very nice , the staff were always pleasant , warm and helpful. We brought our dog and needed to walk him late , there was always a staff member at the front desk. The continental breakfast was well stocked and really tasty. The only complaint was the surrounding area , lots of homeless and drug addicted but that is not the fault of the hotel

Never again !!

The Hotel appears to be on the verge of closing. It was cold and drafty we had the mini split in our room set to 80 and it had to turn on and off every 5 minutes to keep our room warm. Receptionist was not rude but not friendly either. Water pressure was low. Soap container on the wall in the shower are no longer filled but gross soap is in them. They don't tell you that parking is extra and add it at the end. Small computer size tv. Lamp type phone charger outlets half didn't work. Mattress was soft and old. Gotta love Portland food trucks around the corner and human poop in the parking lot. Food trucks are another story . I'm not a Karen by the way. I usually find the food in things but I couldn't find anything in this one other than the location is close to OHSU.
