mmk1997 Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 Wanting to take the 3 kids to Portland on the train (Amtrak) and were looking for a hotel that has a pool that can not break the budget. After much looking around found a post on this site that said that a 2 1/2 star was the La Quinta Hotel in Nob Hill. Amenities Include PoolComplimentary breakfast Fitness Center, Business Center and Hi Speed Internet. Looked up the reviews on tripadvisor and they seemed really good. Some were not so positive, but then later ones said that they had been refurbished. So used the link to HOTWIRE and booked the hotel.Paid $53 night. Only problem seems that the hotel location is not within walking distance of the downtown core. So we rented a car.Hint - we did not go for the package deal of hotel and car - that price was about $40 more expensive than booking the hotel first, then booking the car at a different booking.I know that the Portland train station has rental cars, but through the hotwire site, we could not pick up the rental car at the train station. So we'll have to phone the car rental place for a pickup. Link to comment
