I loved that this hotel was walking distance to Powell’s. I also thought it was really cool that they have gear to rent for free in the lobby, including bikes, Roku boxes for the TV, Polaroid cameras, and more!

The amenities were great. The ability to have access to bikes and other items was a plus. The hotel is not far from the waterway about 5 blocks and the train is about a block and a half away. The front desk staff was wonderful.

We spent two nights on a busy summer weekend in downtown Portland and we were very impressed not only the hotel but everywhere we walked how safe we felt despite the years reading about downtown Portland. Highly recommend the hotel it is fun and staying downtown. So much to do and we walked a lot of miles around the areas on both sides of the river and into the hills of the city and down to and back from the railroad station

The hotel was conveniently located and has a lot of different activities for guests. The room was a bit louder than anticipated. Had I realized how close/loud the max line was I would have packed ear plugs.
