I've never felt physically unsafe around this hotel. If there are dangerous parts in downtown Portland, I don't believe most normal hotel guests would wander into them if they're just going out to nearby restaurants.

Loitering appears to be permitted downtown, so that's possibly a concern for someone coming from a place that prohibits it. But I've never been bothered by the loiterers - panhandlers in Chicago and New York are more vocal/aggressive.

Awareness/caution make sense in any city, I suppose...
