Great beautiful room but was followed by a homeless person outside. Lots of homeless in Portland but not in the control of this hotel. Nice Thai restaurants around the hotel. I liked the hotel room but it is up on a hill so éwé had to do a lot of walking incline as it is a bit of a walk from the main part of Portland.
