Really enjoyed the stay. I got upgraded because of my Expedia status. The room they gave me had an extra room and was designed in style of Only Murders In The Building TV show. I did my research and did use valet parking which was quite expensive. I parked a block away overnight for $10. Also Portland hotels have this $30 fee, and here they give $15 coupon to spend at the hotel lobby. Got myself two beers. Overall very pleasant stay! Wild design which i loved. Recommend

It was very spacious and in a good location. Service was friendly as well, but the room lacked amenities and it felt very large with nothing much in the room itself. It was pet friendly though which is nice.

Had the greatest time of my life here! I play in a band, and my band mates were so impressed they didn't try to steal goldfish like we used to do when this place was called Hotel Monaco. (Do they still provide complimentary goldfish to decorate your room? Probably not, but I bet if they did, even our always outrageous and very unruly drummer Gordie would possibly not have tried to beat his record of taking home 28 (and swallowing 3) of these said complimentary goldfish to populate his extraordinarily tacky pool in his backyard. He calls it a Tiki themed bar and backyard pool, but it's a haphazard attempt at Tiki at best. It's the campy 60's style and not the superior 20's one with darker tones that are very much less Gilligan's Island. He can learn a lot from the Mcmenamin brothers. Anywho, great place, with or without the goldfish.)

A cozy hotel near the river and convenient to many sights in downtown. The area looks more run down than it seems by the number of locals and visitors on the street.

Modern, colorful, and stylish boutique hotel in a quiet street of Downtown Portland. Would have been nice if there were a pool and restaurant on-site but still walking distance to a lot of great bars and restaurants in the area and i did enjoy my stay! Liked that they gave a $15 food/bev credit per night. Free coffee, tea, and snacks in the morning too! Options could be better and valet expensive. Overall still a good and comfortable hotel!

Beautiful bones but needs some repairs
The aesthetics of this hotel are wonderful. Very artistic and comfortable. It is also located close to many restaurants and destinations. The only negatives had to do with mechanical issues. The water flow in the shower turned scalding hot unpredictably! Also, the water pipes vibrated very loudly within the walls not just when we used them but whenever anyone in another room used them! This was very annoying. The noises from the street also were loud at night (not the hotel’s fault) and we were on the 9th floor. I’d love to give this hotel the highest rating but unless the mechanical issues are resolved, I would not stay here again. Too bad because I really liked the beauty of its lobby and rooms.
