Old Town just smells like a urine factory. Rooms are really small with not chair dresser or rack for clothes. Bed sits high so a pain to put your shoes on.

Clean and comfortable bed. Shared bathroom room and shower area clean available.

The location, although close to the MAX, leaves a lot to be desired.

The amenities within the hotel are fantastic, especially the roof.

The extra charge for dirty sheets (food stain)

Price, basic accommodation, European style lodging

Having the little cafe onsite, and the front door setup for guest safety and security

Mostly just how cold the room was, though the front desk was obviously keen to help if needed.

Great location, beautiful design, tidy and nicely minimalist rooms, helpful staff.

Hotel & parking felt very secure, but the surrounding neighborhood is definitely rough. Bummer to see downtown/old town so empty.

Breakfast/coffee were really great. All staff were nice and very helpful….both in person and on the phone before we arrived. Really appreciated the secure, reasonably priced parking. And the rooftop patio is awesome even on a drizzly day. Perfect spot to stay when seeing a concert at Roseland Theater.

Hotel and the history that they kept with it was beautiful, not to mention the staff was amazing. Super friendly and accommodating to all needs. Loved the rooftop and the late cafe hours!

Awesome location in downtown. Room was fantastic with a high ceiling and very clean. The rooftop was a great place to hang and the staff was very friendly upon arrival. Many reviews complained about the presence of people experiencing homelessness near the hotel - if this is a problem for you, maybe Portland isn't the city for you.

Not a criticism as the hotel can't change its external environment and the hotel security system used is excellent, however there was a street seediness nearby. This did not impact me as I am used to such situations.

The fitout of an older building was very well done. The room was comfortable and clean. The shared facilities were very clean and protocolsexcellent. The reception desk was very friendly and the meal I bought tasty.

Granted, it was warm for Portland, I was chilled the duration of my stay. Blankets and space heaters are available, but it was simply too cold for me.

A neat spin on what is essentially a hostel. Despite being in a part of town that has a heavy homeless population, I felt safe and well taken care of. Clean, simple private room + bath with a focus on sustainability. Comfortable cafe/common space + cozy rooftop lounge - no drunken, noisy guests. You wouldn't know it was a hostel unless you stayed in a bunk room!

Unfortunately the location and how it was/is populated with risque people.

The friendly personable front desk people. They also had a security person meet me at the Tram stop and walk me back to the hotel which was nice.

The room was very small and not especially comfortable. There was a shared bathroom in the hall, and I chose not to use the shower.

The lobby area was very attractive and the staff were all very nice. It was easy walking distance to restaurants nearby.

The hotel only offers the hostel rooms to out of town guests which I am. I moved to Alaska for work. At the time I did not have the requested documentation. The hotel did stll honore my reservation. It may be some time before I stay with them again.

The hotel offers hostel style rooms. Very clean. Quite comfortable. And not crowded.

This review is hidden because it doesn't meet our guidelines.

The area is beautiful, although very run down, with many homeless people visibly experiencing mental issues. It doesnt feel like the safest place. Also the storage units in the bedroom dont fully close even when locked, leaving a gap wide enough for items to be removed from the inside. Nothing happened, but this is definitely something that should be addressed.

The place is very clean and the staff is very friendly.

I wish there was a spot to hang out that isn’t our bed our in the middle of the lobby if we wanted to watch a movie or something. Again this isn’t a bad thing and just a personal preference! The lobby had a coffee shop which was great in the morning!

The room and shared bathroom were really clean, and the room itself was very comfortable. The staff was very nice and helpful when we ended up having to cancel our stay at another hotel for the following day and having to stay at the society hotel an extra night due to the ice storm that hit Portland during our stay. Despite the weather and everything being closed we still walked around and the hotel is ideally situated. We also payed extra for parking and it was so worth it - our rental was safe in a private building parking lot and wasn’t in the storm.

Outside homeless problem is startling. But not as violent as it might appear mind your own you'll be fine

Excellent staff never have I met a more caring helpful group of Hotel employees anywhere Hats off

Unhoused folks making noise on the street. Not the hotel's fault, our society is broken.

Short walk from train station. Restaurants nearby. Nice rooftop, even if not the weather for it. Shared bathroom was very close (no wandering). Helpful staff.

The room is simple, but neat and clean and has everything you need. I didn't try their breakfast, but instead got a good recommendation from the receptionist for a place within walking distance. I really loved the old newspaper clippings in the stair well. Fantastic!

The neighborhood has vagrants roaming around without purpose and setting up tents on the sidewalk.

The check-in process was easy. The place was clean and quiet. The place had lockers, but bring your own lock. The bed was comfortable with a down comforter. It had a common kitchen with a refrigerator that was kept clean. The bathrooms had hot showers and shampoo included, so I was happy with the overall experience. They let you store your luggage after you check out. It is two blocks from the light rail station.

Rooms are on the small size, but comfortable.

Location was perfect for where we were going. Right across the street and within walking distance. Staff was always kind and helpful.

Smell Cold

Location!

Stayed in December 2023

I didn't realize there was no bathroom in the room! It was not clear in the description. So I had to walk down the hall to use the bathroom, or to take a shower. Also, there were very few surfaces in the room - almost none, no shelves or tables, so I had to put my stuff on the floor. Also, I realized that this hotel was cheaper than average, also because of the location - there is a large homeless population living in the neighborhood, so I didn't feel very safe walking alone in the evening, and ended up taking an Uber every night.

A small cafe downstairs is very cute, although a little pricey. Very convenient to eat there or to work on my laptop.
