Be sure to request a new room, as a few oldies are still in the mix.

"The Jupiter is the hub of Portland's indie rock scene, and you're missing the point if you book a room here just to get some sleep."

The lounge draws a steady swarm of foot traffic, so request a room at the opposite end of the property.
Travel + Leisure

If you want to get any sleep at all, be sure to ask for a room overlooking the “quiet courtyard.”

"Once a nondescript motor-court motel, this is one of the most fashionable hotels in Portland, with a bold, stylish look and posh amenities such as luxurious linens and fine toiletries."
Rough Guide
"Youth-oriented motel flush with arty minimalism, a party atmosphere and quirky rooms. The uber-cool presence of the adjoining Doug Fir Lounge makes it worthwhile."
Fodor's
"The hip, creative, and adventurous flock to this contemporary boutique hotel, formerly a motor inn, adjacent to a restaurant/bar and one of the city's most popular concert venues."
