This hotel didn't offer breakfast. Our room was mostly nice but the bathroom shower could have been cleaned better. The room had a coffee pot but didn't have any coffee/coffee supplies at all. Also, the coffee maker had old grounds left in the machine from a previous hotel guest, which is really unacceptable. If they have kitchen type equipment in the rooms, they need to be making sure that the cleaning staff are cleaning everything well in between guests. We were really disappointed with this especially.

I thought this was going to be a nice historic hotel downtown, however, our room was not very clean and all of the furniture and cabinets were damaged, the rug was coming up and the bathroom had mold in the shower. The area around the hotel also didn’t feel the safest. We were disappointed in this stay.

Maintenance of bathroom hardware need to be addressed. The stopper in the bathroom sink didn't work and it was difficult to find the proper water temperature in the shower...the water was either too hot or too cold. It took some finesse to get the right temperature.

Such a cute boutique hotel in a great area of Portland. The self park option was less expensive than valet and felt very secure. The bed was super comfy too.

They refer to themselves as a luxury hotel and I would not call them that. I walked in to my room with a big stain on the chair and leftover hair pins on the window sill. It left a feeling of a dirty room the entire stay. The review mentions a free breakfast but all the signs i saw showed the cost of breakfast items and i would rather visit one of the amazing bakeries for breakfast. The room itself is OK. It was poorly laid out as it was crammed walking from the bed to the bathroom but then there was about a 6'x12' of empty space. The bed was OK and I wished there was a coffee maker in the room. I would say the best part of the hotel was their evening reception on the balcony. If the price was right I would stay again but am more likely to check out another hotel in the area.
