Love this hotel. My husband and I stayed here on our wedding night, including four days preceding the wedding, and arranged a discount rate for our group of out of towners, from whom I heard only complimentary reviews. The only disparaging thing I could say is that the exercise room is puny and depressing--then again the hotel decor harkens back to old hollywood and doesn't really inspire a workout. I also thought the marlene deitrich room was fun, but not worth the extra cost. We stayed in another executive level suite prior to the wedding, which we thoroughly loved and were kinda sorry we bothered to move for the post-nuptials. Staff members, in particular the valets, were incredibly pleasant and helpful. We also organized a large post-wedding breakfast for our wedding party at Gracie's, and they nailed it with great American standards and attentive service. As for the swanky Driftwood Lounge, I love that it's retained its original funkiness since the makeover. For cleanliness, Portland quirk, old glamour style and charm, and convenience of location, this is a great choice.
Pros: fun vibe, clean rooms, convenient location, professional staff
Cons: tiny gym
