Location was great, I just hated the fact that the hair dryer didn't work the lamp table was broken and didn't work. I honestly couldn't really get sleep I kept hearing the door slam every 5 minutes around 10 pm I didn't go to sleep till 4 am. I couldn't really get rest. The breakfast was very good and lots of options. Towels smelled like mildew. I just feel like it could of been better.

What a wonderful experience staying at the University Place Hotel. It was great to relax at the hotel after spending the day at OHSU. It is so conveniently located. Then, the next morning it was time for the amazing, complimentary breakfast. What a variety of delicious foods to choose from, including waffles, which is always a treat when away from home. It was also just a short drive to the Southwest Water Front area and back. I will without a doubt stay here again when in the area.

Great Autum Trip

Room was clean, but a bit outdated. Still the location was excellent and the ability to have our dog with us was great. We were able to have fun, visit friends and enjoy local food choices with out paying an exorbitant amount of money.
