Stayed one night at the hotel, and it was enough. The AC was horribly loud, and no matter what we did, we couldn't get it to stop cycling. We ended up unplugging it, and it got so hot in the room that we left at 4:00 a.m. Talked to the desk clerk at checkout; she said that all A/C's are loud. Didn't even show an ounce of care that the thing kept us up all night. I beg to differ, the hotels we stayed in before that night, the A/C's were quiet and ran appropriately.

Nice clean, modern room. Unfortunately we were close to a conference room that was hosting prom or some sort of graduation party and was loud down the hall and could hear kids outside until about midnight. Other than that was a nice place. Would stay again.

Overall, this hotel is quite nice. It is conveniently located and has helpful staff, views of the Columbia River & a dam on the river (nothing spectacular, but enjoyable enough), a pleasant lounge, and a decent connected restaurant/bar. The arrangement in our room was well-designed, and the bed was quite comfortable. The room itself was exceptionally well-insulated from outside noise, and I would have given a higher rating if the heater/air conditioner wasn't so noisy.
