My stay at The Westin Portland Harborview had its ups and downs. While the room was beautiful and the staff were generally attentive, I faced some significant issues with service that made my experience less than ideal. The location was central and convenient, but the inconsistency in communication regarding housekeeping left me frustrated. I'd recommend checking the details before you arrive.

I found the staff to be mostly friendly and helpful, but the communication regarding valet parking and room cleaning was frustrating. I waited too long for my car and received conflicting information at the front desk about how to access the parking lot. when I finally got room cleaning sorted out, it was through my persistence rather than clear guidance from staff.

I had a mixed experience at The Westin Portland Harborview. The views from the rooftop bar were stunning, and I appreciated the cleanliness of the hotel. However, the staff seemed overwhelmed, particularly at the bar, which affected my overall enjoyment. Additionally, my room showed some signs of wear, which didn't quite live up to the hotel's four-star rating. 🏨🌆
