Based on all the amazing reviw s of this hotel I expected a lot. Unfortunately, my expectations were not met. While the hotel staff was friendly and efficient the hotel itself is a bit of disappointment. It is old, as noted. But some old hotels are better than others. This one has one major fault, it is loud. You can hear everyone on the floor as they slam their doors and chat in the hallways at all hours. My room was also dirty and there were long black hairs in the bathroom and on the floor. But the biggest disappointment wasn't even the hotel. It was the neighborhood. I have been around this area before and I thought it had been improving as of late. However, I visited on a particularly nice weather week and it brought out all the homeless vagrants populating the streets again. I did want to visit the restaurants in the hotel but they were deserted and I would have been the only customer. That felt a bit weird so I ventured out to all the neighborhood restaurants that google listed. They were mostly all shut down and abandoned. Wandering around at night in this area is not something I would recommend, especially if you are a woman. It is such a shame that Portland is still experiencing such an epidemic of homelessness and drug abuse. I really hope that some day they can turn this around so that businesses can come back and revitalize this area. Until then it is best to avoid. Sorry, your hotel has great potential if properly renovated.

Very cute hotel! Me and my daughter stayed here for a concert and really enjoyed it. My 12 year old said it was "the cutest hotel she's EVER stayed in." ;) It's very close to Moda Center and that's why we picked it. The valet parking is fairly spendy but I guess that's to be expected. The floors are slanted in the building upstairs, which was a little strange but that's really my only complaint.

Most everything was great, though the bedding did not have a fitted sheet and it seemed the top sheet was tucked in as a makeshift fitted sheet, and then there was no top sheet to use between myself and the comforter. There was also some hair and specks on and in the bedding which made it feel less clean.

The hotel is great - nice rooms and amenities and friendly staff. The area of town is a little tricky because there is a soup kitchen very nearby, as well as late-night bars - it can be noisy at times of day/night when sleep is preferred.

Great for an easy stay close to Moda, OMSi

Was here for a quick stay and it was fine. Had a later check in because of a big concert that night, but they gave me a mini bar credit for the inconvenience. Rooms are small but all I needed for a night away. Staff was super friendly and accommodating.

A Hidden Gem in Portland! This hotel offers amazing value for the price. The location is unbeatable, and the service was top-notch. My room was spotless, blending modern chic style with the original charm of the building—such a unique touch. The lobby has an incredible vibe and is a great place to hang out or relax. While a few floor panels were a bit squeaky, it wasn’t a big deal at all. I also really appreciated how close it is to all the urban conveniences. Honestly, I think I may have found one of my favorite spots to stay in Portland that doesn’t drain your wallet. I’ll definitely be coming back!

We really enjoyed our stay! The hotel was charming, stylish and clean. Small but cozy room. The bar downstairs is also super cute and was fun to have a drink at. The area that surrounds the hotel was a little on the rougher side, with a homeless shelter right across the street. But we didn’t have any issues.

I had a wonderful experience. I cannot remember the name of the woman who checked me in, but she was beyond incredible and exceeded my expectations. She went above and beyond when I arrived early to check in my bags, as well as accommodated my friends who were leaving later that afternoon. I believe the name started with an "R." Please pass along my gratitude for her hospitality!
