    $35 per night valet fee sprung on you. Breakfast was industrial except for fruit, waffles, yogurt, etc., coffee was better than most though

    room, got lucky with the room location and view, cleanliness, staff, low key calm energy vibe, all good overall. they have a pool and +/- gym.

    Nothing comes to mind. Good value for downtown Portland.

    Comfortable hotel in excellent downtown location - only a block from the ferries, walking distance to many shops and restaurants. Room was spacious with comfortable beds and very clean. Nice view of the port. Decent breakfast buffet included in the price.

    Not much to complain about here.

    A large, modern and really well located Hampton. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The people and location were excellent and the rooms were large, clean and fresh.

    The desk manager was “pushing” the valet parking. The rooms were very noisy because you could hear the room above when someone used the bathroom and the people in the adjacent rooms and hallway noise. Very poor sound isolation. Very little sleep because of the above issues and question why guests were not placed in rooms that were separated. Hotel was not full. Will not choose Marriott again.

    Nice enough.

    Shortage of front desk staff. Not as friendly or accommodating as you expect from Hampton. Breakfast was marginal. Dried up oatmeal, cold omelet, minimal Fruit and still had a couple of hours before closing. Bedding was worn

    Clean like I expect

    Nothing to not like!

    The room was very comfortable, the staff was friendly, the breakfast was great. They have a variety of coffee 24hrs a day. It's close to downtown area with lots of restaurants and it's also near the waterfront.

    In may last stay, there was one particular person working as valet attendant that felt he did not wanted to work... he was the only one; the other valet parking attendants were very nice and helpful

    This is not the first time I have stayed here and I'm never dissappointed. The rooms are always clean, breakfast is good and excellent location. Every time I come to Portland, I tried to stay here unless there is no availability

    Need better signage for the elevator. For some reason, it was hard to find. I kept turning around looking and so did other guests. It was kind of funny

    Staff was super nice. Valet made it easy to deal with my car. When we were leaving, I called down for my car, and there it was! Nice! Breakfast was good. Everything was very easy. Come in, drop your bag, Enjoy Portland!

    Staff at check in were not friendly and patient. Staff during the evening again were not friendly and engaging. One staff person was texting on her phone when I went up to the counter to ask a question-she continued texting and had her head down while she texted.

    Close proximity to waterfront restaurants—walking distance to the Polar Express Great breakfast-wonderful variety -fresh fruit was exceptional- kids loved the pool
