The property owners, Jen & David, were a joy to rent from for our long weekend. They reached out a few days ahead of time, on top of answering a few questions I had 1-2 weeks in advance. David called on our way to the property to double check any last minute items. We were able to visit David's ice cream shop in South Portland, and it was fantastic! Great visit, and the town of Portland was great!

    Location was great, close to the waterfront and only 10-15 minutes from the airport. Room and hostel was very clean and quiet. The place was very well looked after and the outside decor helped locate the venue easily. An area to leave bags was appreciated and the premises was secured out of hours with a coded door entry for guests.

    This was a lovely spa hotel within a 20 minute walking distance of the old town. The room was large and well laid out with all amenities. The staff were very accomodating and friendly. The location was ideal for us as we were travelling around the are sight seeing rather than needing to be in the centre of town.
