What she meant was that the party was for those who are actually rooming in our section of rooms. I.E. the people who have paid to stay in our two rooms.
Also, no one said that this party had to be a rowdy, drunken party where we keep everyone awake until 4 am. There are such things as 'quiet, respectful' parties.
Another thing, I'd rather keep the party within the safety of the hotel. I've lived in Portland long enough to see what wanders around at Loyd Center. You thought the rowdy bums in Ester Short Park were bad? The ones in Portland are worse.
