Residence Inn by Marriott Portland North

Residence is a no frills but fully adequate service level combined with a very high standard environment overall. I much prefer it to the more common bustling hotels with busy lobbies and lots of noise. Also there was no smell of recreational drugs, which is refreshing in the Portland area. The rooms are mini apartments. You could cook a meal if you wanted to and there is loads of space. Far superior to the usual hotel room where the beds take up all the space.

Breakfast was simple but great. I liked staying on the ground floor. Very peaceful. The rooms are appartments so superior to a conventional hotel. Much more like a home from home.

we needed a handicapped room and we were given an upgrade. we needed a king size bed and handicapped bathroom but to accommodate both we had been given a two bedroom with a queen size bed with a handicapped bathroom and the king sized bedroom had the usual bathroom.

The breakfast was pretty good I did not expect all what they had was pleased.

This was the only minor inconvenience from our trip. We were advised on check in that Breakfast was from 6:00-9:00 daily and we thought that would work out perfectly as we were on a fairly tight time schedule. What we found each morning was they began setting up for Breakfast around 6:00 and anything beyond cold cereal would be closer to 6:30 or later. Not a big deal by a means , just had to seek out breakfast elsewhere.
