Checking in/out was easy, however it would have been nice to have a first time stay meet and greet. The bed was confortable the bathroom was clean but the venitlation fan should be fixed it was very load when it was turned on. The mini bar is a little pricey, especally sence you have a market next door that sells... More

Based on the many reviews it seems other love this style of "service". I found this a very poor experience. The location is great in that there are nice shops, etc all in short distance, but that is where my likes end. The checkin was akward, the rooms were noisy with added in AC and heaters as this is really... More

we couldn't find it to start and when we did we found envelop on the door with a key code to get in and then another for our room. No one works there. no one to tell you anything re where to go, what may be around or help in any way. worse than that is wrapped muffins, old fruit... More

I had the pleasure of staying in 3 different rooms at the Orenco over 20 days. It was a little awkward to "check-in" by way of envelope, key pad, and email. But I grew to appreciate how quiet and easy it was to check in, check out, get breakfast... Every room was unique and well appointed. Comfortable beds. A fridge... More

I loved staying at The Orenco. The self-check in process was so fast, and it was a nice change of pace not to have to 'deal with' the often lengthy face-to-face check in most hotels use, often interrupted with phone calls and requests for information or assistance by other guests. Check out was just as easy - as easy as... More

This hotel located in the award winning Orenco neighborhood is a lovely reasonably priced place to stay when visiting the Portland area. The neighborhood is a stones throw away from several Intel sites as well as a plethora of the other tech companies located in the area. The Orenco, modeled after the UK bed and breakfast style hotel is that... More

I just completed my third stay at this unique and pleasant hotel. It is located on a residential street, and the building blends in with the neighborhood. So it is very easy to mistake this hotel for one of the other residential buildings. The architecture reminds me of those NYC Brownstone walkup buildings in the Chelsea and NOHO neighborhoods...and Brooklyn... More

Very nice room with your own fireplace. And they even give you a coffee maker in your own room. Very clean and I like that a lot. A bit cumbersome if you have big luggages as they do not have lift. But I will come back the next time!

What make this place unique? No on-site staff! As others have commented here, you check-in and check-out completely using codes and email. The location of The Orenco is in a quaint little neighborhood of little shops and adjacent to a park in a quiet 'Leave it to Beaver' neighborhood. However, the area is still fairly new which means that the... More
