Good price if you don’t mind a 20 min walk. Had ample parking and room was small but enough for me, had a private bathroom but off a hallway which is fine. Staff really nice I liked it and recommend, if want to save money by being further out.

Good location. Great breakfasts. Not so close to downtown in the dead of winter so walking was not an option to historic Port area during Polar Vortex. But parking off season was not a problem so we simply drove everywhere.

I loved it. Was just there to visit a family member at Maine Med. this is right across the street and there are decent food options right around. Downtown is about an $8 uber ride or 1.5 mile walk. The staff was great and very positive and happy, the breakfast had something for everyone even gluten free options. The room was super cool- King with no windows and it was great. It was right off the food area lobby thing but the doors are old and thick so didn’t hear anything. I absolutely loved it.

I enjoyed my third visit here. I was, however, very disappointed Friday evening by the young man at the desk not breaking a ten bill. He made like he was checking BUT I fully doubt he actually checked. Very disappointing.

Unusual nice old hotel
This is a funky old hotel in excellent condition conveniently located for us. Staff are friendly and helpful, plenty of parking. Not a cookie cutter hotel if that's what you're looking for.

Reliable Portland hotel
Not sure we got the room we paid for because it was supposed to have bay windows but the room was fine. Because the room was booked through Expedia the staff didn’t know what we paid compared to room we got. Otherwise, the place is an excellent choice for budget travelers. Be aware…no elevators for those having problems with stairs. Request a room on first floor.
