What part of Portland,Oregon would be a good location for two people in thier late 20s to get a hotel in?

Me and my friend are taking a trip up to Portland and are confused with what area to stay in. Many hotels in places like Llyod Center are nice but out of our price range. We are not going to have a car. We want to be near the rose garden, downtown and other trendy shopping streets. We want to avoid bad areas of town.





Our price range is $100 or less per night. We are going in early May.

La Quinto in the Rose Quarter, close to everything and nice.
Reply:Try the Jupiter Hotel.





Yahoo says the rates are about $100 per night. It's in a good spot, lower Burnside in inner SE Portland, near a ton of shops/restaurants/etc. It's close to everything, including the Rose Garden and just 7 blocks from the river.

Reply:you could get a hotell in one of the suburbs. and take the lite rail train in to the city. the train stops less that quarter mile from the rose garden itself. and why the rose garden catching a Blazer Game?
Reply:If you don't mind using light rail, stay in Beaverton or Hillsboro, or near the airport.
Reply:I would think %26lt;$100/ni would be difficult unless maybe you use Priceline or Hotwire.

You probably want to look at the transit system's website to see what lines go to the places you want to see and plan your hotel from there.
