"The Ace Hotel is the coolest kid in town, a magnet for the edgy, daring, hip, bohemian, and creatively inclined—sort of like if Wallpaper magazine had an affair with a really great hostel. Centrally positioned in downtown’s trendy West End neighborhood, the hotel has minimalist rooms that come in all shapes, sizes, and levels of privacy (some have bunk beds and shared baths). They're decorated with furniture made from repurposed military canvas, vintage record players, and murals by local artists. Not only does The Ace hold the main downtown outpost of iconic third-wave coffee roaster Stumptown, it's also home to Clyde Common, a buzzy, boisterous restaurant that will capture your fun-loving heart and probably a significant percentage of your cocktail budget, too (it was one of the early leaders of the craft cocktail movement)." - Jen Stevenson
