We would stay again
Pros:

Location was great and easy to find

Cons:

Didn't like the fact that we were charged for parking and the breakfast could've been better by offering protein options instead of mostly carbs.

Great location for move in day for son at Portland state

Cons:

Smoke free property, I get it and know it’s bad for you, but even a little smoking section for parents would be nice instead of walking to road…

Good Stay but will check on discounts prior to booking my next trip.
Pros:

Breakfast was Good. Maybe some variety on eggs. My room was good although I had a King Size bed that was very uncomfortable, the toilet did not flush well. I like the location.

Cons:

I thought parking was a little pricey 13.00 per day> I used the trains, buses and trolleys during my time there.
