My Place Hotel-Portland East, OR
More suited to several day live ins than a one or two nights day. However, very clean but the staff was not extremely warm in their attitude.

The staff was phenomenal and the property was very clean and modern. Definitely would book again.

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Portland
The hotel lobby is great! The room was clean and comfortable. If I want to be picky, I can say that the fitted sheet had a little hole , and the bottom drawer of the credenza wasn’t latching and kept opening.which could be a hazard. Both things, easy fix and did not affect my experience
