Pros - Room was very clean, comfortable, and a decent size. We appreciated the fridge and microwave in the "deluxe" room, and I loved the white noise machine that was provided. Hotel location very convenient for a Ducks game shuttle, as well as close to the mall and restaurants. Elmer's next door had amazing breakfast. We were very pleasantly surprised that the pool was still open in September.
Cons - Hotel staff were hit and miss. Some were wonderful and very friendly, others completely ignored us especially at the on-site restaurant. Hotel restaurant is very over priced for the quality of food and service. Save money (and time) and go somewhere else to eat, seriously. And finally the area around the hotel property was iffy with transients, etc. coming from the river and mall parking lot. I would stay here again for a Ducks game, but I would not go here expecting to explore the river or have a place to spend time outside.
Also - this is advertised as a "VIP" property with Expedia, but the hotel had no idea was this was and denied any participation in that program. Further online research told me this promotion ony applies for Hotels.com and not actually for Expedia, which is misleading.
