Overall a good experience.
The valet parking included was a nice touch and very convienient with a text to retrieve the car option. Roomservice was slow and they forgot about us on two different occasions, but the food was good and got there after several calls. The hotel itself is very nice, the room did show signs of use: scratched floors, worn tables and furniture, damaged wall plates and grout in the bathroom coming off. This could be improved being we stayed in what was the best suite avaliable. But these were little inconveniences that overall didn't detract much from a good experience in what ammounted to be a clean and nice room. The bed was comfortable, the fireplace was nice; it warmed the room well. The bathroom and jacuzzi tub were nice, with efficient water pressure a nice hot water. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would likely come again given the other options in the area. Portland itself is a city suffering from a homelessness problem. The streets were full of people camped out and if you made a wrong turn or tried to navigate a few blocks from the tourist area you run the risk of coming face to face with hords or drugged out people living on the streets, which can be a bit intimidating. I would recomend not walking at night and staying close to the water if you do. Businesses need to speak out and get the city to do something about this problem before it runs off all the tourists.

Watch out for the additional fees they charge. No parking options other than valet at $45 a night, $35 a night resort/amenities fee and $2/ night marketing fee. I complained and they removed the amenities and marketing fees, but insisted I pay the valet. I felt trapped as there was no other option when we arrived.

Good place to getaway to.
The hotel is wonderful. They seemed very short on staff. Coffee and tea stations were sparsely stocked. Always out of coffee. The menu for dinner at the restaurant could be greatly improved and have a few more offerings. The breakfast staff was inexperienced and very understaffed. Other than that everything was great, as usual

Your hotel has to be one of the extraordinary hotels I’ve experienced. The extra thoughts found around every corner delighted me. Such a personable place with so much thought into everything. Thank you for that. You should be writing the book for all other hotels as I could feel the care you shared for your guests!
