Didn’t spend much time at the property. Really don’t understand why there is a resort fee.

Thank you for the great rating and feedback. The amenity fee is found at all the boutique hotels in the downtown Portland area. We feel that it is a great value to our guests who are then able to enjoy numerous amenities such as: a free appetizer in our Palm Court restaurant, complimentary hi-speed WIFI, a complimentary daily sipping hour in our lobby, plus many more. Because we value our guest's feedback, I would welcome the opportunity to speak with you about the amenity fee. If you have a moment to visit, please feel free to contact me in The Executive office at your convenience. Again, thank you for your comments and we look forward to your return visit.
