Does anyone ride MAX regularly? Is it ok or sketch?

You just might want your brass knuckles for safety.

Aside from some occasional stabbings I’m sure it’s fine.

I stayed at the Hoxton a few years ago. Probably wouldn't stay there again. Homeless people everywhere when you step outside the hotel.

Room was aight but the Kimpton is way better.

Stayed at the Ace too. Too spartan for my tastes.

I used to stay a night or two Downtown whenever I went to Portland to enjoy the city, but honestly based on how it is now, doubt I'll be doing that any time soon.

Zilch reason to spend the night in downtown Portland. Zero.

Last time I stayed downtown was at the Crystal.

I ride that Max regularly since I don't drive. It's ok but I am mostly on the west side. East side is a a little more sketch but still not too bad. There are the occasional weirdos and homeless who sleep on the trains tho. My last ride yesterday had a screamer in our car, that was a little unsettling.

Pearl District?

That's the secret, hang out in yuppified, wealthy areas. That's how I'm livin in LA. Basically the South Bay and OC are all I go to. Most of LA is fucked up too now.
