Our stay at Mel's was great overall! I live in Portland and needed a place to host my family who was visiting for a few days. This place was very spacious, felt very clean, and had lots of thoughtful touches throughout. The check in/out process was very straightforward and communication with the team was very easy. The location is great - so close to both 28th and Hawthorne with lots of shops/restaurants to try. It is also within walking distance of Laurelhurst Park which is one of my favorites! Highly recommend!
