Great Value Hotel
This very centrally located landmark hotel is just perfect if you need to be in the middle of downtown. You can walk to lots of places. No need for a car or cab. The price is right. The hotel is old but well maintained. The rooms could be a little brighter but this won't deter from the overall rating.

In Hotel
Jake's Restaurant isn't really in the hotel but connected to it with a great staircase entrance from the hotel lobby. No need to walk if its raining. The food is superb, the bar area and dininig areas are comfortable and the establishment is well attended especially for lunch and dinner....not to mention happy hour.

Fabulous place to stay!
Starting with warm and friendly staff that is more than accomodating to your every need, this hotel takes you back in time to when comfort and care precede all else in hospitality. The hotel is located right in the heart of downtown, allowing easy access to all Portland has to offer. The rooms are comfortable and very well appointed. Size is limited, but fine for a short stay. Jake's Grill, located in the hotel, is an excellent restaurant with great service. Most importantly, the staff is exceptional, meeting every need and expectation!

Classic spot downtown
I was there for one night on a business trip and I had a good stay. The hotel provided everything I needed and the staff was friendly. Jakes is really nice. The location is great. It is a historical building and feels dated but classy. The walls are a bit thin and creaky. I could hear lots of different noises and such, but it didnt really bother me.

Had a great time
The hotel was excellent. Very beautiful building, close to everything downtown we wanted to visit. Added perk of a Starbucks located on the ground floor. We would defintely go back and probably will.
