\n<\/a>Bicycle-inspired mural in a Marriott room.<\/span>

We\u2019ve seen this type of amenity in Portland\u2019s new stock of residential developments; but this is a first for a hotel. A Marriott sales executive told KPTV that it\u2019s about convenience and security. \u201cI think you sleep better at night knowing your bike is right there.\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s great to see this recognition of cycling from such a large corporation. Now we just need Mayor Charlie Hales to make good on his promise<\/a> to create a protected bike lane on Naito Parkway. If that ever happens, the management of the Marriott will sleep better at night knowing their valued guests have a similar amount of respect outside the hotel\u2019s front door.<\/p>\n
