The hotel is mainly run by students attending Portland State. The housekeeping was quick and responsive and although the hotel suite itself felt it needed a carpet deep cleaning, it was overall a nice stay.

Conveniently located in downtown Portland, but still feels more private & quiet than other hotels nearby. The staff was friendly and helpful, and we found our one-night stay comfortable. Breakfast wasn’t the best, but offered some grab & go options for a quick snack.
