HI - Portland Northwest Hostel

Located in the center of the downtown, the hostel is accessible to the public transport easily. They provide breakfast coupons which you can redeem for a fresh bagel of your choice and juice/tea/coffee.

Parking space around the hostel is too tight. The bunk beds are a bit small in length. Also they are noisy.

Just an hour away from the base of Mt Hood this hostel had everything I wanted. Good food close by, great beer at the cafe, and enough nature close enough to keep my nature deficit disorder at bay for a while.

As with any communal living, people came in late and were loud but overall that is my only complaint.

I like well equipped kitchen and the knowledgeable front desk the most. The storage room is very secured. It has a spectacular view seen through the windows of a room with private bathroom.

Everything is perfect except the temperature of shower is unsteady.

Locate in the green and quiet neighborhood close to a small park and huge forest park, fresh air and hills. Walking distance to catch the train and bus. The hostel is into the eco system (as well the city), so everything was super clean and well-manage. A bunch of hipster restaurant all around. The kitchen provides all the thing you need for cooking. Common room has a lot of game stuff and all information about Portland. They got interesting activities every evening that you can join. Cafeteria locate at the lobby serve the food for the whole day.

Not that much choice of breakfast. Just bagel and beverage. Other than that you’ll need to pay but they do provide leftover pastry in the box at the kitchen.

Awesome staff bathrooms

Bed can be less squeaky
