We like the location, next to our son's apt. The atmosphere was very cool and charming. Old school elegant charm. Restaurant was part of the property. What we didn't like was too much street noise.The hotel provided ear plugs which solved the problem. Next time we will get a room higher off the street or interior room.

Great affordable hotel! You get a lot for your money. This is our second time staying at the Sentinel and will stay again. Hotel is very centrally located to all the best parts of Portland, Pioneer square, Pearl district, and PSU. Beds were very comfortable with high quality linens. Bathroom amenities were also very nice quality and smelled amazing. The art around the property is very fun and eclectic, we kept noticing new things. Especially loved the signed guitar (you will have to stay to see who signed it.) The restaurant had a good selection for anyone. The custom cocktails in the bar were amazing. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone traveling to Portland, business or leisure.

We had a wonderful weekend stay. Our room was super cute & clean. We loved being on the top floor because of the shuttered skylights. The only slight annoyance was a small hum in the room at night that would come & go. There was also a lot of road noise/traffic. I’d recommend bringing ear plugs. But those minor inconveniences didn’t impact our overall enjoyment of our stay.

Disliked: Amenities
Well, our room was not ready at the time of check-in. But the staff was very polite about it. We waited 45 minutes for our room to be ready. We reserved an Executive room, but it was quite average. The TV was quite small, the bathroom had a bit of urine smell, the sink had deposits around the faucet and did not look clean. They also kept the drinking glasses right above the toilet. The worst part was the shampoo. Even with conditioning twice, it stripped my hair to the point that my hair felt like straw and some of it broke off onto the pillow. I was shocked. We also ordered room service. The eggs benedict was not good because the eggs were poached hard. I didnt have a chance to tell the front desk any of this during check-out because he was the only person tending the front desk, and was busy being on-hold on the phone. He whispered that he'd email the receipt. I still have not received the receipt by email. Our stay was average at best, but having my hair ruined was the worst. I now have to spend hundreds to repair it. If you stay here, bring your own shampoo, conditioner, beard oil. My husband beard was so rough after his shower, too. We will unlikey stay here again. There are plenty of wonderful hotels in the area that we've stayed in multiple times a year.
