I used this for a quick visit to Portland, when I visited for a conference and had very limited opportunity to explore beyond the city limits. It paid for itself with the information that the zoo had reduced price days once a month and a discount for riding the MAX. I didn't have a car, so was riding the Max already, and happened to hit the right day. The maps were handy, and the information helped me find places to visit between classes and restaurants on the train route. Not at all comprehensive, but more than enough for my needs.
