This hotel is a blend of nice amenities and a welcoming atmosphere, but it has some drawbacks worth noting. While the amenities are good and the staff is accommodating, the area's condition leaves something to be desired, and extra fees can feel misleading. Still, the comfortable rooms and pleasant staff make for a decent overall experience.

6.2/10

This boutique hotel has a lot of potential with its friendly staff and comfortable rooms, but the surrounding area leaves much to be desired. The hidden fees, including a hefty resort fee, really dampened the overall experience. Although the dining options were limited and not very impressive, the accommodations themselves were quite nice.

The bistro restaurant had limited choices and the food quality was underwhelming, making dining less enjoyable than expected.

I had a wonderful stay at the Dossier Hotel in downtown Portland. The location was perfect, with plenty of shops and food trucks nearby. My room was spacious and clean, which I really appreciated, and the staff was extremely polite and accommodating. However, I did encounter some issues with the check-in process, as my room was not ready on time and the air conditioning wasn't functioning well during a heat wave.

The hotel facilities were well-kept, though I did miss having a hot tub to enjoy on the rooftop. Overall, everything was functioning as it should, except for the AC.
