Very comfortable in a great location.
My wife and I spent a quick overnight in Portland for a show at the Crystal Ballroom. The Sentinel was very comfortable and a short walk to the venue, along with nearby restaurants and bars.

Check in is at 4pm. I appreciated that staff made an exception to give us access at 1pm. "Just this one time", she said. The valet staff also were very personable and accomodating.

Area is ok - I wanted downtown for the history and to be near the river but like other cities the area suffers from beggars/homeless. But the hotel is great. To pick one random thing I really liked : the black tea! The in-room tea was very good.

Facade of a luxury hotel, but it's not actually. Front desk people are not very interested in their guests, they don't offer to help you and don't have answers for questions. Only person that helped us was a valet guy. Stayed in one of the nicer rooms during the second leg of our honeymoon. It's an old place that management hasn't actually cared to renovate in any meaningful way. The designer was great which is why I mention it having the "facade" of a luxury hotel. But the rooms are really just just polished.. you know whats. You can tell there's been water damage that was fixed and covered with paint, repairs on the walls and ceilings that were poorly patched, extremely dirty air vents which worries me about the air quality. Wouldn't recommend.

I didn’t have the opportunity to stay here. I got influenza A, tried canceling through Expedia (where I booked) so I could get a refund and book at a later date. The virtual agent told me they called the hotel and the hotel agreed to reimbursing me. Now I’m being told they refuse to reimburse me due to strict booking. I lost at least 320 on that room due to a situation out of my control (it was hard enough having to cancel my whole trip). I will warn others to never book here, and I will definitely take my business elsewhere. Very disappointed in Expedia and the hotel management.
