Can't wait to come and visit again!
Pros:

The valet staff was very friendly. The hotel cards with book quotes was a lovely touch. I loved using a bike to see the waterfront and that a concert next door was easy to do, too! It was a great first visit to Portland.

Cons:

I wish I had a view out the window

boutique, convenient, relaxing
Pros:

The location is great to the downtown area. I was in town for a conference at the Hilton and it was a designated overflow hotel. It was steps away from the conference. This hotel is more on the boutique side of lodgings. The room was well appointed, the bathroom and the dressing are were a different experience, but unique. The library is a beautiful space that is conducive for relaxing or getting work done. The restaurant faces the street and is convenient after a long day of conferencing. The adjacent chocolate shop is a bonus - the hot chocolate is fantastic!

Cons:

There didn't seem to be a ramp for luggage or for folks for whom stairs are challenging (arthritic knees and ankles). There was a small service lift (?) that was not very clear how to use. No one offered to help or to offer the use of the lift.

Muy bueno, exactamente lo que promociona.
Pros:

La habitacion era muy grande, y las instalaciones dentro del hotel eran muy buenas. El baño estaba muy bien equipado y no nos falto nada. Toda la ropa de cama y toallas eran muy buenas y todo estaba muy limpio. Volveriamos sin dudarlo.

Cons:

Estuvo todo muy bien, solo que no habia room service de comida. Cuando quisimos ordenar algo por la web, no se podia, asi que tuvimos que bajar a buscar algo para comer. No estuvo mal, sobre todo porque el restaurante de abajo estaba abierto y nos dieron de cenar, y pudimos llevarlo a la habitacion. Solo que nos hubiese gustado que hubiera room service.

El valet parking tambien era un poco caro, considerando que en el area no se recomienda estacionar sobre la via publica por temas de seguridad.

Cute hotel, please staff
Pros:

Loved the location

Cons:

The glass on our shower door exploded and we had to change rooms at 11PM. While the front desk gave us a credit for the $50 parking fee, it was disappointing that we never heard from management at the hotel. I don’t expect a refund but I did think we would receive a phone call acknowledging our inconvenience.

Once a treasure now an overpriced outdated hotel
Pros:

Really disappointed in how this hotel has become so worn down and overpriced. I understand the rise of costs in this industry but for the name the heathman carries and the luxury it pretends to express through pricing and image, I was sorely disappointed. Beginning at check in, where they are not able to use the card on file for the booking cost, like hundreds of hotels do (yes a physical card for incidentals is fine but it’s unusual not to be able to have the hotel paid for with the card used during booking). On top of that, the price is higher than claimed during booking. Once in the room, we find a TV from the 2000s that isn’t even facing the bed, and since it doesn’t have any smart functions (like most hotels now offer since smart TV’s have been around for over a decade now) it is rendered useless. The mattress is old and worn, with torn fabric and hair on the sheets, and the floor is filthy. Even the baseboard is chipped everywhere. Then, in their own restaurant, we witness the waiter specifically avoiding to bring the happy hour menu to us, then trying the same with three ladies next to us, who call him out and make him bring it to them. Throughout our stay, I struggled alone with my toddler and our stroller, up and down the steps as the elevator did not function, with zero help from the staff in both hotel and restaurant, and not even the employees by the door offered to hold the door. This remained to be the case throughout our stay. I was sorely disappointed in both the lack of service of the staff in all areas of the hotel as well as the dated and dirty interior. I will not be recommending the heathman to anyone again, which is unfortunate as it used to be a treasure. There are far better, updated choices in the area.
