Review of Doubletree Hotel Portland Down...

Was here on April 23rd for my husband's company's shareholder meeting, drove from La Grande for the one day event. Was told our lunch was being prepared by a 5 star Chef, my husband had chosen the Steak and I had the Salmon, what showed up on my husbands plate was not a steak, but pieces of beef, bite sized and very very bland in flavor, and one of the desserts was a red velvet cake. It must of been sliced and plated hours before our luncheon, it was so very dry and crumbly! Then 2 days later I returned back for a 4 day, 3 night conference, we had 200+ people for our conference and was charged $22 per person for our lunch. It was a croissant sandwich with a side red potato salad, which the chunks of onions were bigger than the diced potatoes and 1 fresh strawberry that the butts were not cut off, mine was green. And then for our first dinner on Friday night was a stuffed chicken breast, it was so dry and crumbled when cutting. And then our toilet was first running and not filling after flushing, called and they sent the engineers up, 2 of them to be exact, they said they fixed it. Then the toilet would not flush at all, once again we called, the same to men came up, said it was fixed. Then the toilet would not quit running again, every 40 seconds or so it would spray water, so now it is 10:30 at night so once again we call, now a different man comes up, was in and out in less than a minute. Now it is getting worse, you can hear the water spraying twice a minute, so at 11:00 pm we call for a 4th time, it takes 2 more calls and a half an hour later and a security man came up and said the plastic tube needed to go inside some other tube and not outside of it, finally at 11:30 at night the toilet is fixed. Still have 2 more nights and 4 more meals here! :(
