Convenient to freshman dorm side of campus. Recommend McMenamin's or Cheerful Tortoise if all in party are over 21.
2/5 - Disappointing
Verified traveler
Nice concept - buying up downtown to create a university. Not where I want my daughter to go. Regardless of the sad-wagon opinions about homelessness, my priority is the safety of my kids in college - in as much as they will give me a say. My daughter wanted to visit this school and the location and the lack of security anywhere - including unlocked doors to all the PSU buildings made it so I did not have to point out to her the safety concerns. Portland is a crappy town and PSU is located in the middle of that pile of crap.
5/5 - Excellent

Every Saturday there is a fabulous farmers market with variety of flower, produce, and food vendors with fabulous food.
