Elk Rock Garden Tours and Activities

Unfortunately, downtown Portland is not the city it was!

Not great value for the price. The hotel had clearly been recently redone in some areas, so parts of it looked very nice aesthetically, but a lot of things didn’t feel very functional. The marble shower, updated sinks, and small kitchenette in the room were beautiful, and the bed was comfortable with a nice TV setup. The biggest issue was the toilet constantly clogging and barely flushing, which was honestly pretty gross. Thankfully we only stayed one night. The staff was super kind, and the lobby looked nicely renovated, but beyond that the property still felt quite dated. The hallways were dingy, there was no pool, and the surrounding area felt a bit sketchy with not much around. There was also some kind of orange liquid/stain on the lampshade, which made the room not feel as clean as it should have been. Overall it was a fine stay for one night, but definitely not worth the price we paid, and there are some maintenance and cleanliness issues that I think need to be addressed!

Fun quirky hotel with updated and well-maintained building...of note: structure have exposed reused/recycled woodbeams throughout. Nice big updated bathroom with a shower wort remembering. We didnt wanna leave. Dining room with bar was nice, the foods they serve had 'Scandinavian' theme, per receptionist. Dining room also faced river, which was nice. Centrally located next to all great restaurants and dives. No dedicated parking lot unless one pays $15 for valet. We parked just off street without issue. All staff were pleasant. Site has sauna (we did not use, we have one at home).
