Hyatt Regency Portland at the Oregon Convention Center
Super friendly and clean... The valet tried to give us keys to a Mercedes. We were in oversized parking with a giant FORD TRUCK. Other than that great stay!

Oxford Suites Portland - Jantzen Beach
Thought the fence around property was a nice touch. Liked the secure parking. Then realized the area surrounding property was not the safest hence the extra fencing and secure parking. Overall, nice stay.
