Though there were renovations going on, it didn't impact our stay. We were too busy exploring the city to use the other amenities, but we LOVED the free shuttle service. Not only did they take us to and from the airport (very promptly), but all around the city (within a certain radius) which really helped stretch our short time in Portland! The room was clean and we were thankful for the little marketplace off the lobby.
