Upon check in, I was informed that we were upgraded but seemed like a downgrade when we entered our room. We got a view of the wall on the 8th floor. Felt like being in a jail cell with that wall view. Bathroom floor and shower floors had lots of hairs from previous guest so it was gross. We were too tired from a long drive to make a complaint and move to another room. The central location is the only redeeming factor of this hotel, plus the kind staff in the bar who gave me hot water when I requested. She kindly put it in a thermos and gave me mugs to bring to my room. The two ladies at the reception looked at me as if I have three heads when I asked for a kettle to make hot water. Have they never heard of this simple household device used by humans for centuries?? Overall, will not recommend. There are better hotels in the vicinity that gives better value for your hard-earned money.

upon arriving at our room, we encountered several cleanliness issues, including an unvacuumed floor with visible debris such as a rubber band, a hair tie, and toenail clippings. I reported these issues to the front desk immediately. The staff responded by offering a room change, which we declined, hoping instead that our concerns would be quickly addressed in our assigned room. A cleaning crew was dispatched, but only after a few hours, and our complaint was apparently not documented as I had to reiterate it during checkout.

Hello Sahara, Thank you for providing transparent feedback about your stay. I am incredibly sorry that the room you were given was littered with debris.

I will be passing this review over to our housekeeping team to ensure that we are prioritizing the comfortability of our rooms. I am very sorry again that this was an issue you encountered during your stay. If you choose to return to Portland, we sincerely hope you stay with us again so we can give you the Portland Welcome you deserve!

The major plus about this hotel is the location. It's right next to everything that we like to do in Downtown Portland. Other than that it's very basic. I'm Marriott Gold and I'm supposed to get free room upgrades when available. It was a Wednesday and nobody was even at the hotel when we checked in. I did not receive this upgrade when I asked The front desk rep with short hair and bad skin had no personality and basically just got us checked in as fast as possible. Poor Marriott customer service. Valet was efficient but expensive for an average hotel. Spend a little more money and stay somewhere better.
