    Clean, friendly and helpful staff, nice breakfast buffet. Would definitely recommend and stay here again.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    The front desk was very helpful with great dinner reccomendations too.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Also, we paid twice what we usually pay for a hotel to have a waterfront view from our room. That waterfront roof turned out to be a very narrow view through two tall buildings to see a tiny bit of the port. It was a real disappointment and I told the staff. To their credit, they were willing to give us $150 credit on our two nights day. Clue 4 RI: Don’t advertise the room as a waterfront view with a picture that shows waterfront across the whole window, and when your guest asks about it with this disappointment, don’t answer “well we did have it until the other tall buildings were built”… which means you do not have a waterfront view.

    Corner room was beautiful

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Staff was more than helpful with the accommodation and area information. The studios rooms are great and spacious with the mini kitchen and full refrigerator. Highly recommend a 9.8 rating only because of the location which could be a little bit easier on the feet but overall a really nice place.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Great location for restaurants and shops. The hotel was very clean and our room was recently remodeled. Would absolutely stay here again.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Everything was amazing from the room to the location and breakfast. Will definitely stay again.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    The location was close to the bay and the attractions we wanted to see. The hotel decor was clean and fresh looking. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was excellent. The shuttle service worked well.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    The room was nicely sized. The bed was so-so, not bad, but little lower than I like. Big refrigerator. The place was quiet. Breakfast was good. Downtown Portland and garage parking. Four nights, walkable for my needs of a mile or less. I enjoyed my stay.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    From the welcome at check in until the end, the staff and location were great. Parking was easy and our guest attendant, Abbott, was incredible. For a family of four, this was perfect.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    This hotel is excellent! The staff is extremely helpful and friendly and the breakfast is such a great start to the day. This is our second stay here and we will book here every year.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    It ia walking distance to waterfront and restaurants. Front desk staff is friendly.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    We got the 2 bedroom suite for my family of 4. The whole experience was amazing! The rooms were clean, spacious (for a hotel), plenty of towels, and the kitchen was stocked well. The breakfast was great with add-ons and was constantly replenished. The pool and pool area were clean with LOTS of towels, the laundry room had plenty of machines, and the gym had great equipment. Location was great, right within walking distance of everything. Overall, it was an exceptional experience!

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Very clean hotel with a nice bar.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    We had a large room that was clean. The bed was comfortable. Staff was very helpful. We enjoyed the selection of food at breakfast. We were fortunate to find free parking on the street for our overnight stay so we did not have to pay the $35 parking fee. It is a short walk to the water and there are lots of restaurants to choose from in the area.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    My one and only huge complaint is having to pay $35.00 a day to park my car in a garage, i am not accustomed to having to pay to park where I am paying to stay already. There needs to be at least a Discount! Parking if you go anywhere in Maine is outrageously high!!!

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Nice, clean, spacious rooms. The breakfast was super crowded, but there was a nice variety. Nice walkable area to Old Port.
