Enjoyed our stay
Pool Room and the saltwater pool were heated which we appreciated very much. Rooms was very clean with lots of great space in our 2 Queen bed option. Gym has a lot of good options with the appreciation of being very clean and neat.

Our stay was great. It is near everything, shops and restaurants. My recommendation is to clean the windows on the ground floor for it to be more appealing, looking in and out. The parking fee of $40 /night is a little steep.

Great stay to close attractions!
We had a good stay, unfortunately voices from the other rooms and hallway were definitely noticeable from the inside of our room. But our location was within walking disoriented places of interests.

A one-nighter in Portland
Pros: good location, spacious room, nice street views, varied breakfast
Cons: insufficient charging access on both sides of the beds, no fan in the bathroom so it was quite steamy for a while after showers

Good hotel for the purpose
Good location; however, it is not waterfront. There were some heavy foot on top floor. We were on the 5th floor which we thought was the highest floor but it turns out there is a residence 6th floor. Did not like the thin walls and heavy foot steps above.

The location was perfect! The room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was not good at all, and I did not like that the only parking option was valet at $40/day.

Hotel was OK, definitely needed some attention to conditions. Would not be my first choice for a hotel on my next visit to maine. Elevators were out of order the majority of our stay and not marked properly, valet staff was very rude.
