Water shutoff due to broken water pipe - no stay!
Pros:

Staff offered me free cancellation due to lack of water and contacted another BW property in order to clarify availability and room rates.

Cons:

Instead of having dinner, I was forced to look for alternative and affordable accomodation at short notice. Actually BW should provide this service and pay for surcharges in this case.

Value for money aber einges könnte besser sein
Pros:

Gute Lage, große Zimmer

Cons:

Kaffee machine in der Zimmer war leider unsauber und mit Rest kapseln gefunden.
Es wurde kein Reinigung nach erste Tag gemacht, man musste Zimmerservice anrufen um extra Badetüchern anzufragen.
Frühstück war gar nicht so wir erwartet haben. Es gab rein Plastik Tellern und Besteck zum frühstücken. Auswahl von speisen war leider such nicht Gesund/Lecker. Kaffee war okay.

Pros:

The hotel had a large entry and foyer, where you could see through to the pool in the central courtyard. There were chairs and table to set out near the pool. The property was clean and well maintained. Our room was large and comfortable. The free breakfast was fully stocked and "complete" by hotel standards.

Cons:

I can't recall anything I didn't like!

It was pretty good for the price
Pros:

I enjoyed using the facilities: sauna, pool & hot tub. The bed was pretty comfy (my husband doesn't agree). The location is good if you're trying to be near the airport, but we had to take an Uber to get around downtown Portland.

Cons:

I wish the pool/hot tub was open longer 9:00-10:00 PM didn't allow for us to use the facilities more than once.
