Unfortunately, I didn't get to meet Patti in person, but she was very helpful in helping me get settled. The place is gorgeous, and within walking distance of Pioneer Square, shopping, theaters, and food. The Red MAX line is a very short walk away, so there's no difficulty getting to/from the airport with luggage. Patti also keeps a stash of travel toiletries handy in case you've forgotten your toothbrush or similar. The bed is incredibly comfortable - the mattress and pillows are memory foam - and the towel rack is heated.

If you're going to be staying in Portland, you can't go wrong here. Just one note: you get a private code for the electronic locking system; if you haven't used one before, remember to press the manufacturer name to turn the system on!
