Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Bend Downtown
I’ve stayed at this property twice now. I like the location and have had positive experiences. Breakfast was good, but I wish that they had more of a rotation on the hot food. I stayed 3 nights and it didn’t change much from day to day. I would recommend and stay again though.

Bend Riverside Rentals
This location is perfect…1/2 mile from downtown Bend. The view was spectacular of the Deschutes Spillway. The condo was clean, but needs “some love.” The photos on the website were beautiful of the condo; however, when we walked in…I was somewhat disappointed. Hopefully, the owners can be contacted ...
