10/10

KEX is a great, central location and in a safe neighborhood. I was traveling solo for work and felt very comfortable. The hotel has a great restaurant/bar, sauna, and price options for all budget types. The hotel has a deal with Knot Springs, 1 block away, which I took advantage of.

This place is gorgeous. The rooms I will say are a bit small. BUT. The bathroom is pretty big. The beds were comfortable and clean. The restaurant downstairs was so good as well. Stay here for the vibe and the service

I was very impressed with KEX Portland! I booked a private queen room with a friend for a night, and we both loved it. The shared bathrooms were spotless and I had no hesitations using them. The staff were incredibly friendly and kind (and the food was delicious!!), and the decor was so cute. My expectations were exceeded- for the price point, KEX can't be beat. I'll be back in the future for sure.

Amazing spot to meet up with friends for some concerts. Beds where comfortable and clean rooms!
2-night trip

10/10

We really enjoyed the KEX, but the room we had was quite small (and we had an en-suite bathroom which not all rooms have). Other than that, the location was excellent, the staff were friendly, and it was very walk-able. Great neighborhood to stay in and a short walk from downtown Portland.

I've lived in Portland for 12 years, and now when I visit (having tried a dozen hotels here) this is the only place I'll stay. It's comfortable, has an old-world charm, and the staff is terrific.

Great staff. Cool spot and loved the esthetics. Only problem is there was no fridge in my room and also every 30 mins a weird loud noise would rattle the whole room.

I had a great time at KEX. They had these large drawers under the bunk beds where you could store your stuff and lock it up. I felt safe. I really like the proximity of the bar and the sauna. Parking was a pain, but you get that with any city area.
