I really wanted to give this place a higher rating. Really. The location is nice and very accessible. I met some nice guests and had a fun time in the city, and really enjoyed the neighborhood and amenities, like tons of bathrooms and showers, free towels and locks, and the coffee bar. The kitchen was very nice and handy as well. On my first night another guest in my dorm came in later than I did and was talking to her friend who was not staying in our room in a not-2am-friendly volume enough to wake me up. On the second night, three out of four guests were snoring incredibly loud, and the fourth guest would intermittently "shush" them, no avail, because they were sleeping. I also noticed a welt on my arm and found an adult bed bug under my pillow on the same night. The person working the front desk was nowhere to be found, and sounded irritated and was disbelieving at first that I found a bed bug in my bunk. I was refunded and offered laundry compensation, which was nice, except since I paid with a card my refund hasn't been processed yet and I could not find another place to stay in my budget for the last day of my trip so I'm at the airport 19 hours early. My coed dorm room also absolutely reeked of cheap cologne, BO, and most prominently, feet. The bunks are also the LOUDEST things I'd ever slept on, and another guest in my room had things sprawled out on the floor, including a plastic grocery bag of some kind of leftovers or something? And there were chips dumped behind her bed. I KNOW this is probably not a regular occurrence, and hostels are my usual go to when I'm traveling lightly. Unfortunately this was far from the ideal hosteling experience.

Nice hostel. Bathrooms reasonably clean. No bedbugs. The only complaint I have is about the common areas. A few nights I noticed people skyping/talking late at night that were way too loud but you cant fault the hostel for that. Otherwise it was great

Analyse de l'ambiance
Le jardin secret est le point fort: une cour calme et cachée qui peut toujours être privée lorsque le café et l'auberge sont occupés. Ça donne à Northwest Portland Hostel une vraie atmosphère de quartier, pas juste un lit et une clé. À l'intérieur, l'auberge dispose d'un café ouvert tard, de musique live, de soirées à micro ouvert, de dégustations, de comédie, de violon et d'autres événements communautaires. Il y a des espaces communs pour travailler ou étudier 24 heures sur 24, 7 jours sur 7, une cuisine complète, une buanderie, un parking pour vélos, un entrepôt de bagages et des espaces qui conviennent bien aux groupes. L'emplacement est accessible à pied pour le nord-ouest de Portland: 23e avenue, Washington Park, Trader Joe's, le centre-ville, les restaurants, les bars et le transport en commun sont tous pratiques à partir d'ici. L'ambiance générale peut être sociale, créative et basée sur la communauté, avec suffisamment d'endroits calmes pour travailler ou se cacher de la matrice du bruit.
Signaux à vérifier
- Les parkings sont limités ou situés dans la rue, et les cambriolages sont très risqués.
- Les lits de dortoir ne sont pas toujours couverts de rideaux, et les chambres peuvent être chaudes, froides ou bouchées.
- L'état de la chambre, l'entretien des salles de bains et de la cuisine, et la chaleur de la réception peuvent être inégaux.
- Le petit déjeuner et le café peuvent coûter plus cher, il faut donc vérifier les attentes budgétaires avant de réserver.
