My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our 5-day stay in the beautiful city of Portland. This hotel was exceptional and perfectly met our needs. Its prime location allowed us to easily walk to nearly all the attractions we wanted to visit. We particularly appreciated the convenience of a full breakfast served every morning, the well-equipped workout room, and the on-site laundromat, which was a huge bonus as it meant we didn't have to overpack. The only minor issue we encountered was with housekeeping; they were scheduled to service our room every other day but only did so once during our stay. Despite this, our overall experience was very positive, and we would stay her again.
