Regular visitor. Love the hotel short of the outrageous prices . . . can no longer afford to stay in the preferable months. However, our suite was uncomfortably cold. The thermostat would only hold my set temperature for an hour, than revert back to a ridiculous setting for the time of year. Had to keep getting up or out of bed on the hour to reset. There were no blankets in the room. Otherwise, my favorite stay for decades.

Wish a bigger continental breakfast included rather than just a coffee bar. Was just in Spokane at Airport Hilton and included breakfast was amazing. That said we had a fire across the street, power outage for a bit, and the staff was wonderful and accommodating! We will be back to stay more often soon!

Room with view was nice. Paid more for it to get a view. Room was clean. Paid way too much for Valet parking though. $40.00 a night is ALOT! I think it’s a Portland Hotel thing.
