wolof the golf and tennis nearby are useless. If it's downtown Portland, I think this has to be "the Nines". by the way, we have been very successful getting bids of $55 accepted at 4 star in downtown Portland. Both times, it has been the Hotel Monaco, right across the street from The Nines, and very nice boutique hotel. There really aren't that many 4 stars in downtown and they are all close in and very nice. I'd use PRICELINE, start at 4 star, and bid up by adding regions with no 4 stars.
