A few days ago, Wayne and I decided to spend the final night of his vacation in downtown Portland. I used Priceline to catch a last minute deal, and would you believe we got Hotel Vintage? As most of my readers know, this was the original Imperial Hotel where Selena and Dirk meet Bert. No spoilers here... :)

The hotel just went under a 12 million dollar remodel last year. I've stayed here years ago, but the hotel now captures the hipster vibe of Portland. They even have jersey robes and a yoga mat in each room. I posted several pictures in case you enjoy seeing the modern look of the past!

Read my TripAdvisor review if you want more details of the new look.
