I agree with almost everything else the other reviewers have said: The staff is really helpful and quick to give directions and suggestions. The location is great--in a pretty cool neighborhood and within easy walking distance of public transit and everything you want to see (Powell's!). It was pretty clean; the bathrooms were a bit musty, probably due to the... More

We liked Portland a lot -- clean, friendly, and small enough to explore comfortably. This hostel just on the edge of the northern part of the city center is a complement to the city and provided us a fine place to stay. We traveled via Amtrak and the hostel was in walking distance from the Amtrak station (about 10 blocks;... More

I have been to quite a few hostels and this one if by far my favorite. Built into an old house, it has an old time feel on the outside but the inside is %100 Portland. It was warm and cozy and the staff where plenty nice and helpful. Now, if you're looking for something upscale, this place may not... More

If you're used to the hosteling international chain then you know why you're getting here. This hostel has great bathroom and kitchen facilities, HUGE private rooms (normally big enough for 3 people) and nice dorm style rooms. Unlike some HI's this one is quiet. More

An adequate accommodation for a cheap price. The staff were very welcoming when I arrived, explaining all the closeny areas/attractions and showing me through the hostel to my dorm. I was in the separate, second building which had an unpleasant odour of fish the whole 5 days I was there for! I stayed in an 8-bed dorm which was very... More

At 95$ a night (for two people), I found that it was slightly overpriced for what we got. Service was excellent, Internet was working OK, some free bread in the morning, but coffee was 1.50$. Overall, excellent place, but I think I would have prefer staying at a motel (slightly cheaper) than having a private room in this hostel. More

This guesthouse has the price of an B&B but it is not a B&B. (At $90/Night for two). In a separate building from the Hostel but uses the same reception area, the room was large but very little furniture and no TV, sink, shower or toilet also no soap or shampoo but clean towels. Bathroom right outside and shower a... More

I am more of a small town guy and small town hostel guy but this hostel is good for a city hostel. It is good because the location is not hard to get to after taking the train and getting off the plane at the airport. It is also good because the city location seemed good and it was clean... More

The hostel is located in a lovely old town house. We stayed in the hostel for one night, and enjoyed our stay. The staff were friendly and helpful and gave us some good recommendations and directions. Our two rooms were clean and spacious, and the free wi-fi worked with no problems. The room was quite hot as there was only... More
