Portland Regency Hotel & Spa
The hotel beds are comfy! And the steam room (locker room) is a fave. But my room was loud! From street noise and the transparent sound passing between the walls throughout the night. I thought this would be my easeful winter getaway spot but I think I’ll keep searching….
