This will be the second time I have stayed at the MS. I enjoy the property very much. Complimentary wine happy hour, and the Fitness center is adequate. The rooms are spacious and the history of the hotel, makes it a must stay for me when I come to Portland.

The staff was very nice. I had one issue when we first arrived. The AC wasn't working, but the next day it was fixed. The hotel could use very much needed upgrade. The staff made my experience at the hotel great.
