The Society Hotel

Nice stay in not very...

Liked: Hotel located in hearth of downtown. Staff very helpful and friendly. Hotel very clean. There were lockers to store bags. Each bed had curtain. In bathrooms there were shampoos and shower gels available. Towels provided. Roof top terrace very nice, but missing some umbrellas on sunny days. Bunk bed room had 24 beds but it was pretty quiet for this amount of people sleeping. Hotel was safety place from what is outside, I felt safe inside.
Disliked: No microwave or kettle in the kitchen (just fridge). I understand no cooking rule, but there was not even an option to make tea or porridge. Matteraces very soft that it was difficult to move to the head locker. Bottom bed was just matterace on the floor level, so it was difficult to wake up from bed. Outside of hotel were many homeless people, I had to take Uber to go to train station instead of walking for 10 minutes. I was not feeling safe walking in the area, i know this is not a hotel fault, but you should be aware of it.Caffeteria in hotel didnt have all products when ordering sandwich and prices are quite high, although food was tasty.

Superb

Liked: Very clean, very polite and caring staff
Disliked: Generally I had a positive experience, but a few suggestions to make it even better, adding some cutleries and plates to public bunker room’s kitchen, and public bunker room’s mattresses need a upgrade.

Very good

Liked: Loved the hotel, small but clean rooms, lobby was beautiful and the cafe was very handy, we ate breakfast there both mornings we stayed. We were able to walk to trains to get around the city.
Disliked: Parking was a little inconvenient, and the area does have a lot of unhoused people around. It didn’t feel unsafe though. A luggage stand or something would have been nice.

A Beautiful Community-Feel Hotel, in...

Liked: The hotel was really well designed, with touches by local artists. They also support local businesses with their toiletries etc, which was nice to see and seemed to be a general theme in Portland. The staff were super friendly and knowledgeable about the area. The cafe was comfortable and the photo booth was a nice addition!
Disliked: We were very surprised when we arrived to see that the street (including directly outside of the hotel entrance) was inhabited by a large number of homeless individuals who were under the influence of drugs. The staff did help to alleviate our concerns by explaining the reasons behind their unfortunate situation, but this did make us wary about walking around in the direct vicinity of the hotel and we only left via Uber, which was a shame.

Cool vibe hotel

Liked: Very cool vibe, loved the history, and facilities were clean and updated. The roof was cool as well. They had safety features and staff was very attentive.
Disliked: The area was a little more rough than expected. A lot of homeless outside the building the first day. There was a lot of security and police presence so there was nothing the hotel could do better but it was noticeable
