Reviews of The Clyde Hotel Portland by Kasa LivingReviews of The Clyde Hotel Portland by Kasa Living

Good value to quality ratio Likes: Good location, clean facilities, comfortable beds, all at a very fair price. Dislikes: The only downside was no in-unit bathroom. But they keep the prices low to account for that, so I think it's totally fair!

Likes: Clean and modern furniture. Location is great relative to Portland downtown must sees. Was able to walk to Portland Saturday Market in about 8 min and Powell's Bookstore is right down the street. Dislikes: There were homeless people directly across from the hotel, but they did not bother anyone that I know of.

Cute, Modern Hotel Close to Downtown Portland Sites Clean and modern furniture. Location is great relative to Portland downtown must sees. Was able to walk to Portland Saturday Market in about 8 min and Powell's Bookstore is right down the street. There is a coffee shop right next door and a couple more down the street. Self check-in was a breeze as well as the self check-out. Pillows were way too soft, but they give you enough so you can pile them up. The room was small, but perfect for a solo traveler. There was a smell of mustiness constantly, but I got used to it when I was in the room. I did have an issue with an upstairs guest who seemed to be having an Olympic tournament in there room late at night for more than 2 hours. So, I finally said something (the hotel communicated through text) and it was resolved! Unfortunately, there were homeless people across the street, but that is throughout downtown Portland. Still an overall safe feeling city, but I would not wander around at night alone.

Nice people and great industrial style. Clean rooms. The location is good. Unfortunately, we got the room right in front of the elevator and the Clyde hotel sign. I am a light sleeper. The people and the light woke me up multiple times…

horrible Likes: nothing Dislikes: everything

This place was probably the worst hotel experience I've ever had. There's basically no staff, nobody at the front desk for the most part. It's all "virtual check in", which means you're supposed to go to kasa.com, pay another $17, upload photos of your ID and scan your face before you get a text with your room number, key code, etc. I booked through Priceline and they didn't provide any of that information in my confirmation email. So, I waited about twenty minutes for the one staff person to come back with his takeout before I even knew how to check in. There was no information at the front desk, just a tablet with a message saying they'd stepped away briefly, call some number in the South Bay Area with any questions. In the hour or two I was there I saw numerous people in the lobby waiting or talking on the phone trying to figure out what to do. After all this I got a small, cramped room with zero ventilation that smelled like a giant fart. Shared bathroom door locks were different than the room door locks and had a blank touch screen I couldn't get to turn on. The only staff member there to ask questions was a smug cretin who acted like I was the problem when there were clearly multiple people experiencing the same issues even in the short time I was there. My advice would be to stay away from The Clyde or any other Kasa properties. Kasa is essentially a group of private equity goons buying up cool properties, such as the previous Ace Hotel, cutting costs, eliminating staff and stripping them for parts. They're the people gutting everything of value in this country for short term profit with zero concern for customers or good business practices. Do us all a favor and stay far away. This place was not even a good deal! Imagine thinking you should run a hotel without even a person at the front desk. People often show up to their hotel tired and burnt out from traveling. Then you're supposed to go online, pay another $17, upload photos, scan your face, wait for a text, etc. It's like the DMV but worse. Also, many of the positive reviews on here are pretty suspect. Talking about "easy check in" and "spacious rooms". Come on, it's an old hotel, it doesn't have spacious rooms. That's just silly. Just another example of finance parasites vacuuming up anything of value and turning it into garbage. It seems to be a trend but the least we can do is not support it when we're forewarned.

Cool space; "too cool" front staff; no parking; rushed out the door at 11am sharp Likes: Really cool old building, renovated for today - Black out window cover - Incredibly comfy bed and bedding! - Central location - Coffee shop and Mexican restaurant next door - Kitchen (only available from 7-10am) was nice and equipped (as no microwave in-room) - No keys or cards (PIN access) Dislikes: Initial impression from front staff member: couldn't have been more aloof to our presence; certainly not friendly - Coffee in breakfast was terrible - No parking (spent $50 in a nearby parkade; paying for 2hr chunks on the street is an alternative) - A knock on the door at 11am sharp to vacate when running 2 mins behind

Property is true Downtown Portland. You can come and go as you like without having to interact with front desk or other staff. There is a door code for night and it’s open in the day. Community room is comfortable with room for multiple groups of people. Lots of live plants. Cozy environment. Room was clean and comfortable. Our new favorite place to stay in Downtown.

Had a lovely stay here! There was a lot to do within walking distance, and the downtown location meant it was easy to get to places farther away via public transit. I also appreciated the complimentary breakfasts that were available to everyone. Overall I’d recommend this place to anyone looking for a short stay in Portland!

It's a great location, blocks away from Powell's Bookstore, and a movie theater across the street. There's a visitor center couple of doors down, and access to public transportation is easy as it's in the heart of downtown. The room was spotlessly clean; it had a coffeemaker available and a very good continental breakfast. I will absolutely stay there again if I have the opportunity.

Would not return. Likes: Not much Dislikes: Overpriced. Digital staff. The resident staff were powerless to help but friendly. Lots of homeless and drug users in the neighbourhood and at one point users outside the front of the property.

Likes: the way the rooms are decorated and even the lobby it's was a amazing experience. and they had free breakfast Dislikes: the coffee wasn't the best at the hotel but there is a coffee shop downstairs.

Likes: Lage ist ganz okay. Das Konzept vom Hotel wirkt cool, waren nur 1 Nacht zur Durchreise dort. Dislikes: Dusche keine Abstütznöglichkeiten (hatte Rückenschmerzen); Schiebetor als Abdeckung für Fenster macht Geräusche, war störend in der Nacht

I loved this place. I was in town for my daughter's wedding at the Lan Su Chinese Garden. The hotel was located within walking distance of many things, including the Saturday Market, Powell's Bookstore, and lots of fun restaurants. It was quiet, despite being in the middle of the city, and had a Jazz Era vibe that was so much fun. I would definitely stay here again if I was ever in Portland.

Lovely!

One of the best places I’ve stayed at! The communication was great and made everything very easy to access. The location was perfect and in the middle of everything so traveling around was so easy! The aesthetic of the building made it so homey and cozy. Definitely will be visiting again!

Likes: The location was amazing in the middle of downtown. We could get wherever we wanted by walking or taking public transport everywhere even though we didn't have a car. Dislikes: The bathroom door handle was difficult to use and the door didn't stay on the track it was supposed to. The fridge also could've been upgraded to one with a freezer so that any icepacks for medication could be frozen again for traveling.

This is a beautiful space. I love the Jazz Age vibe to this place. All spaces are well kept and beautifully decorated. It was very quiet despite being in the middle of a very busy area. I could walk to everything and felt safe doing so. It was very easy to get to from the airport as well. The staff was super friendly and helpful. They even found us a little table we could borrow for my daughter's wedding ceremony when someone forgot the one they were to bring. I would definitely stay here again if I were to come back to Portland at some point.

The room was really nice and trendy! I was just looking for a cheap place to stay on the last night of my trip, I barely paid attention to photos or amenities listed since it wasn't a priority, but I'm so glad I landed on this gem! The room and the lobby were both really well designed and decorated with great atmosphere. Everything was clean and the hotel texted me all the info I needed when I needed it. I have family in Portland, so I will very likely book here again when we come to visit!

New owners. Took over the hotel Changed name from Aceto the Clyde. They said all check in would be virtual - no humans on site - not good. Had to send dr res photo and take selfies and send the- strange. In the end there was a support person at the front desk

Our hotel stay was ok. Very basic amenities, we had to carry out our own trash and ask for more toilet paper. The towels were clean but very scratchy. The TV reception was very bad on the main channels. Glad to have the breakfast option available.

Dislikes: Breakfast offering was way too sugary and not really much to it.

Great community, great place

hosts were always available and communicative. great location for a quick visit, lots of things to do nearby

The room was very clean and comfortable. The TV didn't really work well but I wasn't really there to watch it. The number of homeless folks was unsettling and made me feel less safe after dark, but that's true for all of Portland.

really liked staying here ! lots of cute stores in the area. free breakfast was offered it was simple but enough for me. coffee shop attached to the hotel was also great.

This place was great, the room was huge and nice, it’s in a good location for downtown Portland with lots of dining and nightlife options in walking distance…..12/10 would stay here again

This was the coolest hotel I’ve ever stayed in! Loved it so much! It was very hipster style, but wildly comfortable. The parking was a pain but totally worth it when I got inside. Not a huge fan of Portland as a whole, but definitely loved this hotel. If I ever came back to Portland, this is where I’d stay.

Accommodating and kind staff. Loved the South East Asian vibe it had felt like a movie right out of the 60s!

The heat didn't work! The room shown online looked NOTHING like what we got! Our beds were just a mattress on a two-inch plywood base, and I swear the shower had some mildew! The elevator smelt of urinal cakes, and when we went to the front desk we were advised to go to the "Virtual Front Desk" who everwhat ever that is USELESS!!!

Would stay again now knowing what to expect. Especially for the comfy bed. Likes: Bed very comfortable. Good location. All amenities in room. Dislikes: Took a while to accept a lot of old style dark wood finishes, including floorboards. Carpeting would have been nice. Clatter noise from air conditioning unit was annoying until I found the control under a shelf to turn it off, on the first morning. Having the sink in the bedroom was a bit different. The very limited breakfast was just about acceptable. Felt like the hotel was used mainly for 1or2 night stopovers booked on spec like a hostel style stay.

Likes: Great location to move around city. Easy access to transportation.

Absolutely worst check in experience of my life. I had to call their virtual help desk 8 separate times and called many more times where i got no answer at all. Terrible!

This place was great! It had incredible amenities and was very comfortable! What a great experience!

This is the second time staying at The Clyde Hotel. Enjoyed the clean, spacious and comfortable room; especially for the price. It's located right in the downtown area and a block away from Powell's Bookstore and Voodoo Donuts, among other iconic places. I gave service 4 out of 5 stars only for the fact that everything is automated. We received all check in procedures and codes beforehand. I would definitely stay here again!

We had a great stay here! Location was in the heart of downtown and was a short walk or drive to everywhere we needed to go. Coffee shop in the lobby was great, too. The vibe of the building felt like an upscale hostel. Fits right in with Portland and I would definitely stay here again.

Love the place
