Local Transportation
(1) | Public transportation: |
An adult all-zone pass is $2.05
You can create your own customized route with your own arrival
times using the TriMet trip planner:
http://www.trimet.org/go/cgi-bin/plantrip.cgi There is a direct TriMet light rail train (MAX) from the airport to downtown. You can either take a connecting city bus to near the hotel, or you can walk the 15 or so blocks south to it (our blocks tend to be smaller than the typical city block). The walk is very pleasant in good weather and with minimal luggage. It is approximately 3/4 mile by foot.
