“In my opinion, this Holiday Inn's greatest strength lies in its prime location within Portland, offering easy access to the Arts District and waterfront. The hotel's extensive meeting facilities and family-friendly amenities, like complimentary meals for kids, stand out. While some aspects may reflect typical Holiday Inn standards, the renovated spaces and convenient extras like the local shuttle make it a practical choice.”
