I had a good time exploring Portland during my stay, and the hotel's location made it super easy to get to restaurants and attractions. The breakfast was a win, offering a decent spread, but the noise from nearby rooms really put a damper on my experience. Overall, it's a clean place with friendly staff, but if peace and quiet are what you need, you might want to think twice.
