Thoughts needed on Hotel First in Portland
 

Thanks for all the suggestions on my thread about the Holiday Inn. I checked all of them and a couple are possibles. A friend suggested the Hotel First. Sounds good-decent price and nice rooms. Would appreciate thoughts on hotel itself and the location. Good reviews on Trip Advisor except commrnents about noise. I like getting more opinions from Fodor's folks. Thanks.

Hotel First? I've been to Portland twice, never heard of this hotel. Out of curiosity, tried to Google, cannot find! Can somebody post a link, please?

Boy, did I mess up! It's Hotel Fifty, not Hotel First. The brain must be further gone than I realized Sorry. Don't know how to post a link, but here is web address: www.hotelfifty.com.

I wondered :)

We stayed at Hotel50 when caught a special on Expedia. Did not hear any noise although they did some fixing outside. I'd say it's a quiet area where everything is 2-3-4 blocks away. Easy access to the airport by MAX, no need for a taxi.

I would stay there if I'd get a good deal. It's close to everything, but not exactly in the middle of everything.

Linda, let me see if I can find my report, I'll post a link here.

Here it is
