Seaside Vacation Packages

This was our first time staying at the Mark Spencer hotel and had a wonderful experience from checking to check out. His staff was extremely friendly and helpful!

Stayed for a fun night in town. Good night sleep! Great breakfast in the morning. Only disappointment is hotel bar closes at 9.

To start, staff was very friendly. But when we got to the room it was dirty. Now I’m not talking a little bit of dust, the sheets on the bed were some shade of dirty, the floors haven’t been vacuumed. The carpets weren’t properly attached to the floor, they had detached and bubbling around the edges. There was a particular smell in the room, we weren’t there long enough to locate it but it did go away after shutting off the ac(which was useless). The fridge smelt of death, which is too bad because the food in Portland is amazing!!! We had them clean the room once, wow, just wow. The towels weren’t properly cleaned, but the clean towels they brought were every hydrophobic, they only pushed the water off of you. So even though you used the towel thoroughly, you never dried off. They don’t change any sheets, they proudly displayed the stains on the pillow cases as if they were having a contest to see how dirty they could leave a room before getting fired. Honestly, I was impressed. Overall the hotel was beautiful, the wood work was beautiful for a historical building. Too bad, I don’t think I’ll ever return there, ever.

Centrally located downtown within walking distance to various attractions, including Powell’s Books (of course), The Portland Art Museum and the farmer’s market on the campus of Portland State. Nice rooms, friendly and helpful staff, lively lobby bar and good complimentary coffee by the registration area. Valet parking was also solid. We enjoyed our stay.
