"Convenient and nice place to stay in Portland."
The room was nice, comfortable and clean. The hotel employees were courteous and prompt. The shuttle driver was awesome. It was so convenient to have the shuttle to take us the short distance to the Old Port.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Have stayed many times before"
It was as it always has been in the past. Fairly convenient to everything and comfortable. Meals are very pricey. Food is ok. The maid service has changed. I used to leave the room after 11 without a problem and always came back to my bed made, trash taken and used towels changed. The second day, we were leaving the room and was asked if I needed towels. […] I said yes and she started handing them to me. So I said, and the bed made. She took the towels back and said nevermind, I'll take these.(?????). It was a good weekend though and as always, will go back to that hotel the next time we are in town.

"could walk to the Civic Ctr &waterfront."
Overall I was pleased. but .. The wait to get a room was not expected and upset our plans.It set our two night stay off on the" uncomfortable" side.We were tired from a long drive and wanted a rest before our PM plans. That didn't happen.The breakfast buffet was good but overpriced.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Excellent service."
The hotel is a bit old, but in good repair. What is always comes down to is the quality of service. A pretty place can be as cold as a tomb if there is bad service. This place, however, has hired people who are attentive and will do their best to make your stay comfortable, in a friendly manner. That makes all the difference.Genuine Expedia guest review

"A Pleasant Hotel Experience."
The staff was helpful and friendly. Two breakfasts and one dinner in the restaurant were well-prepared and tasty. The view from Room 624 was beautiful, especially at sunrise.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Very nice"
I love the free shuttle service. I was attending a Christmas party and didn't have to worry about driving. The room was clean and the beds comfortable. The shower water was super hot and there's a mini Keurig in the room.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Great location"
We enjoyed our stay here, it is very convenient to the Old Port area of Portland. Our stay was too brief to fully appreciate most of the hotel's amenities, but free parking is always appreciated in Portland.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Good value, friendly service"
When I booked I only had the option to go for a smoking room. The hotel had a wedding that weekend and all non-smoking rooms were booked. I thought I'd give it a shot, but I have to say it was quite awful. We had a spacious, clean King size room, but no option to open a window and the smell was in your hair and clothes within minutes. After two nights […] in the smoking room we were finally able to move. The room was much smaller, but non-smoking and newly renovated with a bay view. I would give that room a 5, the other smoking one was a 2 at best. Location is good, it's a 10 minute walk to the bars and restaurants at the bay, and the staff is is very nice and happy to give you a complementary lift anywhere in town.

I was visiting Portland to attend my son's White Coat ceremony. Friendly and helpful staff. I wish there was hotel pick up from the airport.However there was a ride to airport. Food was not so great. Room price was very high. May be they inflated it for that day when White Coat ceremony of UNEGenuine Expedia guest review

"A day at the old port"
Overall the experience was very good. Travelled with my mother and husband who both experienced some breathing issues related to stuffiness in room. Air conditioner did not function properly and windows did not open. Hotel is fully carpeted and I believe this may have added to the issue. Our room was on the top floor and perhaps air did not circulate […] as well as on other floors. We had stayed the Friday before and had a room on the 10th floor and experienced no such issues. Otherwise room was clean and staff very accomodating. Restaurant in lobby was pleasing as well. Location was wonderful and parking free. I would stay again if I travel to the area Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Very nice!"
I really enjoyed staying here! I could walk to just about anywhere from this location and the staff were great! I would most definitely stay here again. The ONLY downside to staying here was that the pool is in the basement and there are no windows. I guess that would be great for little kids or anyone that just wants to swim for exercise.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good place to stay for family trip to Portland"
We stayed with our 2 young children, and it is a great central location from which to explore Portland. The kids also loved the pool. Waitstaff at restaurant were particularly friendly.Genuine Expedia guest review

"Good hotel"
Walking distance to all you want to do in Portland. Comfortable room.Genuine Expedia guest review
Problem with reservation booking. Reservation was extended but we were "locked out" of room for 30 min. even though room was paid for, we were not allowed entrance. Room was not cleaned since morning (we returned around 5pm) to find unmade beds and dirty towels. In fairness we were given two free drinks and refund of $50 but the experience left a bad […] taste. We felt the front desk could have been more understanding and more aware of the poor communication . Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"friendly and affordable near downtown Portland"
All the hotel employees were helpful and friendly. We called for extra coffee for our room and it was delivered very promptly. The hotel offers a free shuttle bus to and from the airport and to and from the Old Port part of Portland. It was very convenient to have this shuttle bus to pick us up at our location instead of having to walk up the hill in […] 97 degrees! The walk isn't far from the hotel to everything downtown, but it was extremely hot that afternoon. We did have to wait about 10 minutes for the shuttle, but there are no complaints from me or my fellow travelers. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"The Family Wedding in Portland Maine"
We were at Portland for a family wedding. Our adjoining rooms for my family had a beautiful view of the bay! It was not your typical Holiday Inn; a definite step up and so close to everything that you could leave your car in the parking lot and just walk to everything in Portland! Although Portland has so many fun restaurants, a few of us stayed behind […] and just ate one night in the hotel restaurant! The food was excellent with very good service and we had no wait for dinner. The morning service for breakfast was understaffed and a bit slow but very convenient. There are several fast breakfast places around, such as Dunkin Donuts , Starbucks, or Becky's Diner if you are up for a little walk. The pool and work out room were a welcome treat after the day! . Overall a very positive experience and I would book a room in a heart beat and head to Portland, Maine once again! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
