The listing is misleading. I picked the property because it was reasonably priced. After booking a no cancellation reservation. I received an email that said that we had to pay $50 a day for valet parking and $30 a day for the resort fee. I ended up paying an extra $80 per day to stay at this resort. The staff was wonderful! The location was good. I think that the lack of transparency in the listing is unacceptable. The hotel is very old and needs repairs, but mostly I’m upset about the lack of transparency on the true price to stay here.

Fun maximalist/whimsical design and good service were the highlights. Room was comfortable but not very practically arranged (coffee table smack in the middle of the path to the bathroom caused two nighttime stumbles 😂). A bit of wear and tear, and minor issues like inconsistent shower flow and slow drain leading to standing water in the tub, light switches inconvenient to access, one bedside outlet didn’t work. Bed a bit firm for my liking, though I prefer too firm to too soft. Pastries and fruit in the lobby at breakfast was nice. Very convenient location near local attractions and good restaurants. Overall a good value.

This was a great place to stay in downtown Portland. Good location and a very nice room. I have an electric car, which the valet attendant plugged in each time I returned. The staff was great and they have a morning coffee and tea service which was fantastic. Staff were very friendly and helpful -- even bringing a refrigerator to the room on request. Will stay there again for sure!
