This room was very nice for the price. It’s set up like a mini condo with a living room area, stove and near full-size refrigerator in the kitchen area and plenty of storage. It also has a large window in the bedroom area. The bed was also pretty comfortable. All in all it is definitely a great value in a great area with many shopping and dinning options. We will definitely stay here again.

There is no one on the property, all check in was via AI. The kitchen equipment was adequate for a several day stay. I was booking for a single night for work in Portland. The room was quiet and the bed comfortable.

Pros:The rooms were immaculate! Full size fridge, microwave, dishwasher, dishes , utensils etc! Nice livingroom area. Cons: it's contactless but thankfully there was someone at the desk. We got our key cards but they didn't work so luckily she could fix them. I never got the email the last night with directions to check out as promised. But we figured it out.

Room was very clean, could not find a coffee maker in building...seemed strange for extended stay. Biggest issue is the "key". Electronic key system was very unreliable and we were locked out for a period of time. Very disappointing

Air conditioning system was making loud clap every 10 minutes, not restful sleep. We arrived late at night, so unfortunately, did not notice right away. We reserved two rooms via Expedia. Upon arrival we were told we have only one room reserved. At the end, hotel was able to find another room for us,
