Park Lane Suites & Inn

Overall, this is a standard hotel for its class—nothing out of the ordinary, but nothing particularly impressive either. It consists of two buildings, each with its own parking lot. The parking spaces are small and often angled, but they are included in the room rate, which is a plus. We stayed in the building across the street, which, according to the staff, has rooms that are slightly inferior to those in the main building. The staff themselves were friendly and welcoming, and complimentary tea, coffee, and cookies are available at the reception.

The hotel has two buildings, the main one and an inn across the street. Parking is free, there’s a lot next to each building. We didn’t have breakfast but there’s orange water in the lobby, coffee, tea in the morning. The room has a coffee machine, coffee, sugar, refrigerator. There are two bottles of water. The room is simple, clean, in good state, there is a comfortable round table with 2 chairs. The bed is comfortable, with clean bedsheets. There is a lamp with power sockets on the bedside tables. A large mirror. The bathroom is clean, has a shower with curtains, plumbing is good. There were small bottles of shampoo, conditioner and gel - one of each. There is a large grocery store nearby in 3-minute walk, the neighborhood is good, it is quiet near the hotel.

I loved the location of this hotel. It was centrally located to literally everything needed. Such a short distance to Washington Park, you could literally walk there. Also, there were plenty of quick food places within walking distance too, which made it an even more convenient location. The fact that you didn't have to pay for parking per night is a plus as well although some of the parking spots were a bit tight. I loved how quiet it was in the neighborhood, which ensured we got a great night's rest each night.

Our room was on the small side for two people but fine - the beds were comfortable and the bathroom clean. The location was fantastic - within walking distance of the Pearl district and fun cafes, restaurants, the famous Powell bookstore and foodtrucks. We enjoyed exploring the neighbourhood and the owner gave us a number of recommendations for the Elephant Deli, Ken's Bakery Cafe and Kells Pub which all turned out to be great. The staff were all friendly and helpful, and the complimentary coffee, tea, apples and freshly baked cookies were very nice touches.

The front counter staff were great, friendly and very personable. I arrived earlier than expected but they were kind enough to let me check-in. The room (at the Inn) was fairly basic but spotless and the bed was comfortable.
