Really sus lack of clarity in their advertising about the lack of bathrooms. This is more of a hostel. They need to be much more upfront in their online profiles

The property was very interesting as historical so was a little different. Great staff & location. Just be aware that no TV in room or bathroom-just a sink. There were several bathrooms on the floor so no problem & always clean. We would stay there again.

I liked it but they should make it more clear that you do need t get your own bathroom. Likewise, this may have been bad timing but the bathroom across the hall from us had blood in the shower and was dirty. In all fairness we were too busy to let anyone know.

We LOVED our quick check in … We were an hour early and thought they would not let us check in, But they checked us in no problem. They acknowledged our dog and were kind and professional. The hotel is located Downtown Portland and the city started at 6:30am on a Saturday with a drill hammer to hammer the sidewalk right in front of our room. Not the best way to wake up. We loved the salt water pool. WE WILL VISIT AGAIN … the shared bathroom was Always clean A+

Cool property. We landed at midnight, walked to scooter McQuade’s, had drinks and apps at 1:30 am, and a great experience at the bar. Bathrooms are good, we slept good, parked by the door, swam in the morning. Nice and easy.
