Centrally located in Downtown Portland
Pros:

The front desk staff was very kind and welcoming from the time I arrived to the time I left. The hotel was within walking distance to shops, restaurants, and the Amtrak train station. Best of all, the nightly rate for my room was surprisingly affordable. I have stayed at the Marriott's other locations in the past, and I plan to do so again when I visit Portland next time.

Cons:

Though it looked like my room had been cleaned, I still found strands of long hair on the bathroom floors and bath tub. Not sure if this were overlooked by the housekeeping staff.

Great for a short weekend break in Portland
Pros:

Great, cost efficient hotel in downtown Portland, just south of Chinatown and close to many of the main sights and attractions within the city centre. My room was spacious with a nice view, coffee machine and a shower with good pressure. Comfortable bed which let me pass out in minutes of getting under the blankets.

Cons:

Only minor gripes. Don’t count on an early night because the hotel is near a light rail line and whilst the service is running, the bells sound at the nearby stop.

Good stay before flying home. Arrived Sunday night (5pm ish) and unfortunately no place to eat.
Pros:

Room size was good

Cons:

I’m noticing the hotels don’t have bathroom exhaust fans which make dressing and event prep challenging after showers. Especially difficult after husband ‘uses’ the toilet. Takes entirely too long to dissipate ‘aroma’.

Great place to stay in Downtown Portland.Close to Powell's City of Books, world's largest book store
Pros:

The room was extremely spacious with temperature just right. It was warm and comfortable as compared to 2 deg C and rain outside. The staff was also helpful throughout the day and so was the reception desk . They helped us with umbrellas for walking in the rain outside. I was feeling unsafe because of deserted streets and homeless people on the streets but they gave us confidence that it was safe to be outside during the day and late evenings.

Cons:

nothing to complain.
