Cute hotel, conveniently located, staff friendly, room was okay, bed was uncomfortable on one side, heater-airconditioner unit was extremely loud when turning on and off. Destination fee was ridiculous addition, you had to eat or drink at the property to have it deducted, therefore you spend much more. Liked the coffee bar on each floor, nice touch.

Super Stylish and Comfortable Stay

What an amazing stay! Next time we will stay for more than 1 night. The hotel was easy to drive right into the valet garage. The desk staff was super pleasant and helpful. The hotel has a nautical theme that was beautifully done, down to details like drawer pulls. The artwork and lighting was perfect. Our room was clean, huge, and had a wonderful view of the garden area. So many towels, a nice wardrobe and bar area, a full bath and a shower. It was a studio apartment size! Every floor has a snack/breakfast area that was well stocked. I will always reserve a room here when I visit Portland, ME.

Very, Very Nice

Smallish hotel with a personalized feel, great amenities and location & lots of small comforts. Probably make it our place to stay in this entertaining, restaurant-mad town. We live only an hour away but for its size, Portland has an incredible food, beer, and even coffee scene. This is a perfect place to be smack in the middle of it but still have peace and quiet and kind attention when you need it.

The property was fine. The staff was great. The problems that I had were all small but there were many of them. This hotel was not worth the price at all. They were short staffed (one server at the restaurant, one staff member on at night so it took a long time to get an extra blanket). The bed was extremely squeaky. My room keys were deactivated after the first night so we had to wait on key reactivation while in a hurry to get something quick from the room. The restaurant was extremely expensive but the food and service was that of a cheap hotel restaurant. The price I paid for two nights st this hotel was very very unreasonable and I would not spend the money to stay there again. $45/night to park in the hotel garage and that money does not even go to the valet staff.
