Dear Thea, Portland motels are expensive!! we usually stay on Barbur where some of the older motels are. OHSU recommends Aladdin for about $45. 00 cheapest we have found, but it is a dump! We go a couple of blocks south to the Days Inn. It isn't too bad and it is around $55.00 with a Senior discount. Plus there is a good Chinese place to eat there or Buster's BBQ walking distance. Out at the airport is the Comfort Suite. It is really nice and they have airport transportation 24 hours a day. Cost is about $86.00. but there aren't very many places to eat near the motel, except fast food. Have a good trip. jjjane ----- Original Message ----- From: Gordon Seese <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Friday, March 03, 2000 6:51 PM Subject: Portland, Oregon > Gordon has a work-up at Providence Hospital in a couple of weeks. > I have maps, etc and know the way well to the Medical Schoool. > Do any of you see the Providence group?Are there any major motels near-by? > Though we usually drive I am getting tired of these long trips and just may > fly. > Why change hospitals?
