The hotel is older, when we got to our room, the room was not cleaned. It was stains everywhere and the room had a smell. We ended up moving to another room, that one was a little better. The staff were nice and kind. It’s extremely noisy, but that’s expected staying on a main street.

Great hotel! The snacks with sensors were super frustrating, I would much rather have the fridge to put my own things than drinks that trigger a sensor and charge me when I move them around. This caused me to have to walk down to the check in to sort it out, they still didn’t take the charges off and I had to call when I got home to remove them. Otherwise this is a very nice spot to stay in Portland!
