This hybrid hostel/hotel is very nice, new, well-constructed and surprisingly quiet in the rooms. The location was excellent for my reason to visit Portland. It was relatively straightforward to get to, both driving and it's right on a major city bus route.
I was in a private queen room, not one of the shared 'dorm' rooms. The property is listed on Airbnb but also operates and makes reservations just like a hotel. I was pleasantly surprised that LoloPass only charged the local taxes and didn't charge any other cleaning fees.
I downgraded rating stars because I had driven to Portland from Texas and didn't expect to find that I was on my own for street parking. Yes, it says something to that effect on their website in the FAQs, but IMO that's a big enough consideration -- especially to Airbnbers that I would've much preferred that they were more overt in their communication about it.
Unlike both typical Airbnb's and mid-price hotels, no in-room coffee, water, or anything is provided. My room only had a stool, no chair with a back.
Regarding communications, there was no personal email or text communications other than over the phone when I called in. The emails were signed "Lee" but I never encountered anyone with that name. It was nice, however, that I believe the front desk is staffed 24/7.
Even at 68, I enjoyed the vibe and appreciate the business plan that LoloPass has executed nicely. However, given the inconvenience of the parking and the lack of any typical hotel amenities (here I'll count a room chair as an 'amenity'), from a total value standpoint ... for the private room option I felt it was pricey for my overall experience.
