This is a bare bones facility, but the price reflects that. No coffee or ice is available, the place is run down but fairly clean. The staff are helpful and it's conveniently located close to the airport and Providence Health Center. If you like Asian food, there many options close by.

The staff, Glen,Dawn,and Michael were very nice and helpful. The room was okay, no amenities. The area around the hotel was a little sketchy. The hotel is an old building that had squeaky floors and you could hear your neighbors.

Not bad for the price but can be improved.
The hotel is in good location. There are many restaurants in the area. The property has good potential to improve such as cleanliness, the comfort and etc. The easiest can be improved immediately is get rid of smoking smell. They should also improve bathroom towels, blankets and broken sinks. That will make big differences and big improvements. The security is also required to be considered. Anyone from outside can access to at guest rooms easily. Maybe get key access to the property’s door.

The people were so nice and helpful. I would stay here again. It is Old School Portland. If you want something fancy this is not for you. If you need a place that is affordable to rest your head its fine. No frills but i found it comfortable and i felt safe sleeping there.

This is hotel with very basic accomodations. The staff were polite and the linens were clean. RUNDOWN: Fixtures were either rundown or had been fixed with the least expensive methods and materials. SECURITY CONCERN: The door to the street was unlocked all night-- so guests could get back in after 9pm. TERRIBLE SMELL: The worst thing was the smell. There was a half finished carpet replacement project happening at the time of our stay. We didn't see anyone working on it, but part of the hallway carpet had been pulled up and the new carpet odor was overwhelming. The whole building smelled of cigarette smoke, even in our non-smoking room. There was also a smell that I thought was urine, but my partner thought was Nag Champa incense. We left the winfow open all night so we could breathe, so then we had the light and sound from the very busy main drag which kept us up.

The building is clearly old, yet well-maintained, especially considering its age and the general quality of the construction.
