It was a quick overnight stay, beds were firm and comfortable. Only a 10min drive to downtown Portland for dinner. Loved the heated pool and the gym options. Breakfast was a decent selection and food was hot and fresh. Staff were friendly and helpful.

What a wonderful stay we had here! The room was clean and had a nice mural on one wall. Beds were SO comfy! Brand new owners (as of begining of June), staff was attentive and kind. One of the owners, Ahmed went above and beyond providing superior customer service at every interaction. I was in Portland just for one night, after being in NW Maine for 2 weeks dealing with an awful situation. We needed good food and quality rest. Ahmed and other staff recommended wonderful restaurants for meals and nice areas to explore. The weather was in our favor thankfully! Uber is easy to get around anywhere you want. The restaurant right nextdoor has good quality food (totally family friendly) strong drinks, lots of locals and friendly servers. I barely missed the free breakfast because of the wonderful comfy beds, but Ahmed offered to extend for me (I declined as I woke later than I expected and had to go to the airport) Has a nice pool area, was very calm. When I come back to Portland, I know where I'm staying!!

Understanding that the property is undergoing renovations we entered our floor and the hallway was lined with toilets and boxes. Our room was clean and beds were comfortable. Biggest issue is noise. There were guests yelling all evening and a major party happening on the floor above us. I called the front desk after 3 hours of excessive noise and they said they would handle it however the noise and yelling continued until 1:15am. For that reason alone I wont stay here again.

Was just ok.

Lobby was suspiciously quiet- not a bad thing, but it was so strange to not have any kind of music playing at all. Room was nice- but the cabinet in the bathroom needed fixing. The door fell off when i tried to open it and it almost broke my husbands toe. Turns out it wasnt even screwed into the cabinet. This was probably the worst breakfast we experienced on our trip- no spoons, coffee was cold, eggs were horrible. Guests were going through cabinets trying to find things.

The stay was great! Affordable for a family (2 kids, 2 adults) Beds were amazing! Kids and I really enjoyed the pool and how late it was open. Front desk staff was incredible and super helpful and friendly. The interactions were genuine; not forced like typical chain hotels. Very refreshing and welcoming. With the new ownership and renovations it has drastically improved, I can't wait to take the family there again! Can't forget the free breakfast, delicious! No complaints from either kiddos...hard to do!

Terrible Stay.

My stay was terrible. We got there at around 7pm. We entered our room and the room was clean and looked in good shape, but it wasn't. Our shower had not shower curtain. One was put up at 9pm. Went to get into bed and there was no bottom sheet on the bed. (Found this at 1030 pm.) Our TV did not work. Went for our free breakfast within the time it was to be opened and there wasn't any food left except some fruit loops and enough batter to make a waffle. Nothing was ever refilled, even the drinks.

Not recommended

This hotel was conveniently located but it was shabby. Our room had a poor air conditioner which made a lot of noise and did not cool off the room. Bathroom mirror was dirty. Walls were thin and lots of noise from people next door. Overall it worked for one night but I can't recommend staying here. Staff at check in were nice. No one was at the front desk in the morning to check us out.

When I arrived, I had to wait at least 10 minutes before anyone acknowledged me. I gave the person my identification card, thinking I would be in a room shortly. There was confusion if any room was available. A runner was sent to see if there were rooms that were clean. This took probably 20 minutes. The facility was clean and the breakfast was better than most.

Had over an hour to check in and there was only 4 people ahead of me. No reason it should have taken that long. The bed was so tall that we had to step on our luggage to get into the bed. The hot breakfast was actually cold and what was supposed to be cold was warm.
