DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Portland
You would have thought for the middle of december the hotel in general would be warmer. Even with the heat cranked we were cold our entire stay - room, elevator & lobby too and we’re saying that as Seattlites.

Holiday Inn Airport - Portland by IHG
Paying separately for parking was annoying and the lot was very full. The room itself was good and clean. It would be helpful to add luggage carts near the elevator entrance.
