Best Western Pony Soldier Inn - Airport
Clean hotel with great breakfast & coffee. Comfy bed, pleasant staff & conveniently located. The only complaint was several work trucks parked outside of our window that started up & beeped at 4:30 am….. not the really the hotel’s fault, though.

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Portland
The hotel lobby is great! The room was clean and comfortable. If I want to be picky, I can say that the fitted sheet had a little hole , and the bottom drawer of the credenza wasn’t latching and kept opening.which could be a hazard. Both things, easy fix and did not affect my experience
