Hyatt Place Portland Downtown - Old Port Square
Hotel in a great location. Very clean and comfortable. Unfortunately with construction going on, the lobby was closed and check in was in the coffee shop with access only to rear elevator door. The room was a bit dated, which was surprising for a category 5 hotel.
