"I stayed here, solo, for 4 nights for my first visit to Portland. All the workers here were kind, helpful and professional, from the front desk to the breakfast bus people to the valets outside. It was clean everywhere. My room didn't have a view but it was very comfortable and quiet. The A/C worked great and the bed was super comfy. The hot breakfast downstairs was always substantial. I didn't use the pool, but kids were playing in it over the weekend and they seemed to like it. I didn't use the fitness room either but it seemed nice. It's located in an OK area of downtown, but was kind of questionable at first. It is near the Willamette River, Voodoo Doughnuts, Chinatown and several restaurants, but it's a walk to the Pearl District, business district and other areas. The Portland City Grill is very close for 30th floor views in a nice restaurant. As a note, I didn't use the valet for my rental car, but I did use a nearby garage and was fine. There is the light rail and buses, but I chose to walk, use Uber and take tours."
