Historic art hotel in downdown Portland. Modern upgrades while keeping historic charm. Staff were very welcoming and helpful, and their key card cover includes a map with local business discounts. Location was close to great restaurants, businesses and Powell books. Actual kitchen area in rooms, flat screen TV's, solid built hotel so you don't hear the stomping and banging you often hear in newer hotels.

Planning my next visit.

I will attach photos so you can evaluate whether you think this is acceptable for a hotel that bills itself on the website as "elegant" and "glamorous" with "precision in every detail." Broken furniture repaired with electrical tape; upholstery stained with visible spatter and falling apart; sofa with a ratty ill-fitting cover; evidence of surface cleaning but in desperate need of a deep clean with visible dirty handprints on the walls, grime in the carpets and fabrics, bloody boogers on the shower tile; and a broken phone that would not call the front desk. Because the hotel was fully booked we were unable to move rooms. We also couldn't find an alternate hotel available for both nights in the area, so while we were able to cancel our second night through Expedia
