Mark Spencer Hotel

Very good

Front Desk staff were extremely friendly. They gave us some coupons for free appetizers at some local restaurants once they learned of our dinner plans. The room was super nice and spacious. It even had a kitchenette which we didn't request. Will stay here again. The parking situation is typical of hotels in a city. The underground parking lot is tight and works if you have a smaller vehicle. Otherwise, I would park in the outdoor lot across the street.

The bed was uncomfortable and the room was very poorly noise insulated so it was loud all night. The toilet paper was a joke...like public bathroom\porta potty bad. And while less important, it was somewhat annoying that the only option was cable tv and the weird remote wouldn't actually let you turn on closed captions even though it had a button for it (we eventually were able to turn them on using the tv itself but the text box was a third of the screen and covered huge sections of whatever was on). It kind of felt like an old cheap motel in terms of comfort and room ammenities but with a prettier package. Overall, I wouldn't stay here again.

Exceptional

I enjoyed the vintage feel of the property. The staff was super friendly and helpful. I loved that the property was walking distance from everything! The only complaint I had was the packet of coffee that was given to us for the room coffee maker was not great and would have made one cup of ok coffee not a small pot.

Good

A very nice place to stay, clean and well kept. Very nice front desk people and a great location. Will definitely stay again. Thanks

This hotel had a nice mix of old and new. There were some classic decor in the lobby area with free water and coffee. My king bed room had a sitting area, a kitchenette and a very comfortable bed. The bathroom had a walk in shower that was very nice. I definitely plan to stay here again!

Charming old hotel in downtown. Can walk all over easily right out front door. And free happy hour. Great vibe.

It would be nice if the cleaning staff came regularly rather than requiring an appointment. I even made an appointment and no one came one day. But other than this one hiccup, it was a great stay. Quiet and a great location. Could walk to many wonderful restaurants and to the Timbers game. Would return in a heartbeat.

Nice room, all staff members were super nice and gave lots of recommendations. The rooms were cozy and had a nice bathroom and cozy robes There was a smell to the room but I am pretty sure it’s just because it’s an old building

Large comfortable room.

The hotel is in a great location with many shops and restaurants all around! The staff was very nice and friendly!

This is our favorite place to stay in Portland. The hotel has lots of thoughtful touches, the staff is kind and helpful, and we love the location near Powells books

Very good

I will stay there again!! Loved everything about this place! The special 24 hour coffee bar and art in the hallways were an added BONUS!!

Very good

Superb

The hotel was centrally located within walking distance of what we wanted to do. The staff was extremely welcoming and friendly. The room was huge! My only complaint is that the room we received shared a bedroom wall with the hall directly at the elevator. It was noisy until around 11pm. I expected a better location for the price that we paid.
