Stayed here on the way to the airport. It was clean, but had a funny smell, like covered-up mildew. There were several cracks and dings in doors and counters, but nothing that got in the way. The bed was comfortable enough, not fantastic, but OK. it was quiet and huge. For anyone that wanted to stay longer, there was a... More

Front desk associate was very friendly and gave us a warm welcome. There were a few things missing in the room (suite case rack, spare blanket) but that was remedied as soon as front desk was notified. A hot breakfast is included but unfortunately we never got up in time to enjoy it. Love that the pool was open until... More

My wife and I get in our room to find ants all over the bathroom floor and smeared bloody boogers on the wall. Carpet in the room looked as if it hadn't been vacuumed for months. We normally stay here faithfully, but obviously something has happened in the housekeeping department. We will look to stay elsewhere from now on.

Stayed one night through Travelocity's secret hotels. We were looking for at least a three star with breakfast while visiting a friend in Portland. This hotel was fine and it exceeded my expectations based on some of the reviews I read here. Our room was very clean and comfortable. All encounters with the staff was pleasant. There were a lot...

Stayed here one night with three kids for my son's basketball tournament. No complaints. Nice, spacious room. Hotel is very close to mall and lots of restaurants which was nice. Kids enjoyed the pool. Beds were comfortable. Wifi worked great. Free breakfast was decent. Staff was friendly and accomodating.

The hotel itself was okay, beds were comfortable pool was worn but did the job for the kids. Service was not to my expectation, should have checked tripadvisor when our group was booking hotels and saw the ranking prior. 3 hockey teams were booked into the hotel for a tournament. Upon arriving we all signed waivers no sticks in hallways.... More

a lovely large suite, lots of storage and space, beds were very comfortable and slept like a log. furnishings are tired now though and getting more and more annoyed by hotels that just dump linens in the room when there is a sofabed rather than make up the bed for us. Paid a reasonable amount for the room and would... More

Shopping around for prices, I decided to take a chance on the Holiday Inn Express Park and Fly. I was not disappointed at all. The price was fantastic, the cookies warm, and the bed comfortable. Shuttle service was provided to the airport in a very timely manner. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone.

Stayed here as part of a road trip through the area, found the hotel to be clean, with comfy beds, a hot shower, and free breakfast, wifi and parking, plus very friendly manager and staff on reception. A good value for money hotel. If you want the Four Seasons, pay for it!
