“My editorship found the Holiday Inn Portland-By The Bay to be a solid choice, particularly noted for its accommodating staff and generous room sizes. While the fitness center leans toward the basic, the complimentary shuttle service proves an invaluable asset for exploring downtown Portland. The convenience of having children dine for free at the restaurant, coupled with comfortable beds and clean facilities, makes for a pragmatic stay, especially when factoring in the variable nightly rates.”
