Sometimes a family needs to stay slightly outside of a downtown area to enjoy the complimentary perks that make traveling with children more affordable and, therefore, possible. It’s nice then when parents can find a hotel that gives them and their kids what they need and want, like free hot breakfast with DIY waffles makers, an indoor swimming pool, large rooms for families of four-plus to stretch out, free parking and Wi-Fi, and all at a good price. This cozy Country Inn and Suites near the Portland Airport delivers all that, plus a clever book lending Read It & Return Lending Library (with the freedom to take the books and drop off at any other hotel in the chain), free fresh baked cookies in the lobby, onsite coin-operated laundry and Kitchen Suites that includes a refrigerator, stove, oven, microwave, sink, toaster, dishes and silverware, and a separate living area.
