KEX is a very clean, no frills hotel/hostel in Portland with a fantastic lobby and bar. The food was inventive, fresh and tasty. Good cocktails, and even better service....just enough attention to get what I wanted and plenty of space to just enjoy the scene.

World-class cocktail bar on the main level: Pacific Standard, was the reason I booked and a wonderful place to end the evenings. KEX offered free drip coffee there in the morning as well, so it’s where my days began as well. Location is next to lots of dining and a few James Beard winners. Daily runs over the Burnside Bridge to the waterfront makes it a perfect stay.

I tried to store my valuables in my assigned security drawer, but it was blocked by another set of bunks. I didn't even deal with this nonsense in the military, which should say something to these people. Get it together, kids.
