Attention Portlanders or folks who have been to Portland

I have Guster Tix to Portland, and will be travelling come the end of March. Anyone have recommendations on a good little hotel to stay at?

You're not going to find too many hotels in the same neighborhood as Powell's, but there are a ton of them downtown. I would recommend the Marriott on Broadway. It's within walking distance of Powell's and you know what you're going to get. That might be too pricey though.

Here's a hotels.com search for Portland

You can stay near Lloyd Center and take MAX (lightrail) to downtown very easily. It'll let you off close enough to walk a few blocks to Powell's.

I was born and raised in Portland, but I haven't stayed at too many hotels there. It seems like this is an off-season so you could get a room at the Marriott for around $100/night.
