The two bedroom suite was perfect for our family of six. The garage was steps away from the entrance and breakfast was convenient in the mornings. We were able to walk to all the sights that we wanted to see in Portland

Affordable and great for families, the staff was nice, and the beds were very comfortable. The location is great, it's a bit out of the busy downtown but a very close walk to nice restaurants and all the main attractions. I would stay here again.

2nd stay here! Loved it both times!

6/10

The staff was terrific. Unfortunately, the room smelled like cigarette/pot smoke. We booked a two bedroom suite and one bedroom was fine while the other reeked of smoke smell. We checked in late in the evening so I just dealt with it the first night, but first thing in the morning, I talked to the front desk about it. They sent up an ozone machine for the day while we were out and that seemed to work ok for the room, but the bathroom still smelled horribly! So, if you are sensitive to smoke smell, don't stay here.
