    Great location and amazing staff!

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Not my style but clean

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The location was excellent, we could walk everywhere. Parking was a separate charge, which was the same everywhere downtown but the room was expensive enough.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Would rather the bathroom and toilet be in one room, with more privacy.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Also the rooms have a lot of noise bleed through - sounds from adjacent rooms. Sometimes it sound likes they are in your room, (raising window shades, conversations, sneezes and coughs - sound attenuation is needed for correct this design flaw.

    location was probably the best part it sat in a central area. The bathrooms where designed badly. no vanity light what so ever over the sink or by the mirror i had to use a small light i brought to shave and my wife was not thrilled , the toilet was in a very small space (very small) and the doors to it were barn doors that kept opening by themselves. and it had no wall seperating it from the rest of the room (bedroom) just a decorative panel. Needless to say the bathroom is bad.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Had a wonderful stay! They had just experienced a flood so not everything was available but they were very accommodating and kind!

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Location was great, and easy walk to lots of shops, coffee, marinas, and Becky's Diner! Pretty comfy beds and a great shower. They're definitely angling to get more money at every turn. Very expensive parking (park at the $5 lot a block away!), expensive and mediocre food offerings, extra charges for every little thing. We also visited during a system change-over, which was a headache for all involved. A few folks in our party got double charged and the check in process took about 45 minutes.

    Location No water pressure in the sink or shower , no restaurant no food what was offered in the canteen was super expensive

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    We were in town to see Wilco at Thompson’s Point. We were pleasantly surprised to learn that the hotel had a free shuttle service to any destination within 5 miles, including the music venue! The driver, Elton, was also a Wilco fan and drove us to and from the venue. We are from the Plains so we do not know Portland at all. This service made a huge positive difference in our stay!

    The location was awesome! The games and pool table in the lobby were perfect for my teenager kids so they could stay up later and have fun. The parking was a bit odd, especially since you had to pay for it;)

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    There are no doors to the bathroom. The only privacy is a thin plastic 3/4 wall. There was zero privacy.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The TV internet kept going out. The view was nice the room was nice. Unfortunatly the flood was not their fault but we were not offered anything...

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Parking was told by reception that was $30/night but I was charged $30 the first night and $40 the second.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Very convenient to walk downtown. Clean and comfortable. We liked everything

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The hotel did a great job of keeping the place clean and the staff were friendly and helpful.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Convenient to the waterfront and restaurants. Parking was expensive but it was everywhere downtown. Overall very happy with the stay.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    This hotel is very well located. It is within the Old Port neighborhood and across the street from the water. It is down at the end of the touristy area, which means that it is much quieter and easier to get to than the hotels closer to the core. Even so, it is less than a 10 minute walk to restaurants such as Luke's Lobster, so it is still very central. The hotel is very modern and clean, and our room was huge. I love that it had a mini fridge and a massive shower. Another amenity I appreciated is the mini-market off the lobby where guests could purchase snacks 24/7. We stayed in two different rooms, one at the start, and one at the end of the trip. The initial room was a standard King Room, which looked directly onto the condo complex next door. We thus ended up keeping our shades closed the entire time, resulting in a room that felt a little dark. The second room was a King Room with a Water View, and this room was amazing! The windows were a little smaller but we had a fantastic panoramic view of the water from our top-floor room. The rooms in this hotel do not have a door between the bathroom and bedroom. There is only a dividing wall that doesn't go all the way to the ceiling, with the bed on one side and the sink on the other. Thus, the light and sound from the bathroom seep into the bedroom if one person is still trying to sleep. Not ideal. Also, I feel like not having a rooftop bar at this hotel is a missed opportunity, considering the several other hotels nearby that have them. Lastly, parking onsite is expensive and limited (but they were able to recommend a less expensive lot 2 blocks away).

    This place is nice.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The whole team were brilliant, but Gary was absolutely exceptional. His attention to detail and making sure every aspect of me and my partners trip was incredible. From local recommendations to helping us out with everyday bits like travel etc, he was brilliant! Give this man a raise!
