"Room furnishings that blend Grateful Dead–inspired psychedelia with the interior of a Victorian boudoir can only mean one thing." Full review

"The 51 small, song-themed rooms at the upper-middle-range Crystal Hotel in downtown Portland embody the quirkiness that defines this city." Full review
"Quirky hotel with dining & a bar." Full review
"The Crystal epitomizes a certain Portland aesthetic that is basic, down-to-earth. In fact, the rooms with shared bathrooms at the Crystal are the best deals in town." Full review
"Rooms named after famous musicians who have hit the stage at the Ballroom...staying here gives you same-night access to otherwise sold-out shows. Al's Den in the basement hosts more live music" Full review

"Mountain lodge meets urban chic at this suburban Vancouver hotel adjacent to the Vancouver Mall." Full review
"Across the bridge from bustling Portland, Oregon, and just 15 minutes from its airport, this place is a little hard to find but well worth the effort." Full review
"This rustic-chic hotel is marred only by its bland suburban location in Vancouver, Washington." Full review
"The local mall may be closer than the nearest ski slope, but visitors to this large lodge wouldn't know it to look at it."
"Don’t let Portland’s low-key, outdoorsy-hipster vibe fool you: the Heathman Hotel is as grown-up and refined as they come." Full review
