Great option for your visit to Portland
Pros:

Very good location - easy to walk to everything the harbor has to offer. Friendly and professional staff. Breakfast was excellent. Parking is $35 a night - a bit high.

Cons:

Price of parking. Think it should be in the $20-25.00 range.

Best location and lovely staff!
Pros:

The location can’t be beat! I’ve traveled a number of times to Portland and can’t say enough about this wonderful city . I travel enough to believe that what matters most is location. There are a number of Marriott’s in the city but this one is just a few blocks the ferry and tons of music and restaurants!!

Affordable and clean.
Pros:

Suite was roomy for 6 people. Two full bathrooms helped for sure. Nice view

Cons:

Beds were uncomfortable and hard for me but some liked the firmness of the beds. Only one phone worked in the suite.

Stay some place else
Pros:

Very underwhelmed by this property. For 500$ night we got a room with broken air conditioning, bed lamp that won't work because of faulty wiring, never refilled kleenex, drain that won't stay open and empty conditioner bottles. Breakfast items never change and are pretty boring. Bar is fun and staff is friendly but offered nothing forour poor room conditions ( I didnt ask for anything but thought they would be more concerned)

Good breakfast and nice, large rooms
Pros:

Large rooms and comfortable beds. The view of the bay from 5th floor was limited by taller buildings but still nice. Breakfast is done very nicely with the usual sausage and plastic eggs however it is nicely laid out and plenty of room. This hotel is on the West end so there is a 4-5 block walk to the shopping district. However it is quiet. Parking is next door at the garage. Cost is $64 a night but show the desk your credit card and they will reduce it in half. Still...$32 to park a car! We were impressed with the facility and service. Will stay here again.
