A Posh Hostel Experience
I hadn't stayed in a multi-bed dormitory in decades. But this was nice! Very quiet, with climate control, black-out curtains, and privacy curtains for each bed. Drinking water, towels, and even earplugs were provided in the room. My bunk bed was SOOOOO comfy! And each bed has an enormous drawer into which you can put your stuff. You can rent a lock for the drawer for $4. The bathrooms (three on my floor) were always clean, and somehow always open (I never had to wait). Nice showers, with shampoo & body wash provided. Right outside the four-bunk room where I stayed was a nice little lounge area where I could sit in a cushy chair and work on my laptop (while charging it). The restaurant/bar area is classy and obviously popular, but I didn't hang out there much.

Perfect for groups of friends!
I stayed here with my friends for my bachelorette; this place was a great pick! We stayed in the 6-person bunk bedroom. There was plenty of space for everyone and the beds were super comfy. This is a perfect place if you're looking to be near many fun things and want that boutique hotel feel.

One night stay in Portland
Great last minute booking! The check in process was easy and they kindly gave us an upgrade. The room was cozy, though clearly had that “old building” feeling (for better or worse). We’d definitely stay there again!

10/10 Exceptional

Such a great place to stay! Super fun bar & dining options, easy to get to transit, and peaceful, pretty, comfty room (I opted for the single room and loved it)! Since this is a hostel, keep in mind some hotel-like services are not available (like a robe, daily room cleaning) and some maintenance items weren’t perfect (some duct tape on the shower and a bit of a musty shower smell), but it didn’t impact my stay negatively. The bed, restaurants, sauna, and location more than make up for it. Amazing, kind front desk staff, too. Thanks for a wonderful visit!

A wonderful accommodation within walking distance to many popular spots in Portland! A quaint place with an old-timey, antique feeling with a restaurant on-site that offers delicious food. Highly recommend this spot, but make sure to book an en-suite room if you want your own private restroom in the room. Would be nice to have a mini fridge & microwave in the rooms too.

We rented the family suite and so very pleased with the room. We all had really comfortable beds. The hotel staff and restaurant/bar staff were all very pleasant. The only issue was trying to find parking...that was an expensive mess.

Whoever hired Bella, Vince, Cj, and David did a great job!! Coming from Alabama, their hospitality and personality made my first trip to Portland even more inviting. Also, the queen size room I had was great as well. Great environment, I’ll be back.
