This is my new favorite budget hotel in Portland. Right in downtown, walking distance from businesses, coffee shops, restaurants, Portland State U. The area has its homeless but I didn't feel unsafe at night. On-Site parking included - so useful! Tiled bathroom with curved shower curtain rod was a nice bonus.
Nicole at reception was fantastic - professional, courteous, she helped resolve a small detail effortlessly. Some rooms are close to tram tracks so ask if you need absolute quiet at night.
I'd be happy to stay here again.
