The Royal Sonesta Portland Downtown
Beautiful hotel very clean, amazing location.The only thing I can complain about is the breakfast with very minimal. Barely anything to choose from. And the male breakfast host, was not on top of cleaning the tables off and not friendly at all. Will stay there again but probably won't do breakfast ...
