One for the Students

On my way to work I spotted a flyer for a Portland hostel and remembered that we, in fact, do have a couple of hostels in the area. So that's another option for all the college kids and grads, or really anyone who wants to save some money on lodging for the wedding. The one I have seen is a really nice house on Hawthorne St., a great area for shopping, restaurants, people-watching and general hanging out.

The picture of the other one, which happens to be conveniently right downtown, shows a gorgeous old Victorian house on NW 18th (also a great area with tons of fun stuff within walking distance.

This one has dorms and private rooms, free wireless internet, and several tours available. The dorms are $20 a night and the private rooms start at $36 and go to $69.

If anyone you happen to talk with is interested, send them our way for more information!
