The staff were very friendly and I loved the location of the hotel next to the botanical gardens. Hotel overall was very clean and I liked that my room had a wardrobe and table. I was only a bit frustrated with the noise in the hallways and people slamming doors. I was in a corner with six rooms and only two bathrooms, around bedtime it got super busy with people coming in and out and being noisy.

Tina, Portland

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Hotel was clean and in good repair. Staff were very helpful. I also liked the keycards and door hangers weren't plastic. When the windows were shut, you couldn't hear the street noise. However, the interior walls weren't as good at blocking the sound. Normal volume conversations were amplified. You can't use their wifi if you use a VPN; I confirmed with staff that that is why my wifi was failing. If you are calling yourself sustainable, don't use paper towels in the bathroom.
