University Place Hotel & Conference Center, Portland

The hotel is conveniently located near Portland State University which allowed for easy walking and parking of ones vehicle. The room was clean but a bit gloomy due to being on the interior of one of the wings. An outdated television was in the room with a broken picture tube so unable to watch any television shows. Friendly service at the front desk.

Just needed a bed for a night. Didn't really use any amenities. Room was clean and comfortable. Quiet.

not impressed. Mattress was uncomfortable, no fridge or microwave, both rooms I tried opened to a semi-enclosed corridor that looked out to a wall or to the parking lot (I was too claustrophobic to stay in the one with a wall for a view). Guests were very noisy in the corridors at all hours. Location is great, But on-site parking is $15--and I don't appreciate hotels that gouge guests for something that should be free. Won't be my first choice next time.

My wife had a conference at the Hilton. We stayed at the University Place Hotel because it was about half the cost. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was large and comfortable, but not particularly clean. There was no microwave or fridge and the TV was an old CRT. We kept our leftovers in the ice bucket and the girl at the desk heated them up in the staff microwave for us. The complementary breakfast was decent. The best feature was the MAX Rail stop right in front of the hotel which provides access to the entire city & the airport.

Overnight get-away...hotel is very old...bed was extremely uncomfortable! Needs to be updated desperately!
