Erika was very accommodating and a pleasure to work with. The condo is beautiful and is in the perfect location. Everything is pretty much walkable. There is a parking garage right next to the building which makes it very convenient.
This is one of the best vrbo’s I’ve ever stayed at! Communication was excellent and it had everything we needed. Location was perfect! Def a must stay!
My husband and I stayed here with another couple for the weekend and this apartment could NOT have been better. It was spacious, clean, updated, and the most amazing location to walk around Portland. The communication was timely and informative. They even had coffee and k-cups available, which was so nice! Would absolutely look to stay here again.
We LOVED our stay here! It is located in the perfect area of Old Port, right in the middle of everything. We parked our car and walked to everywhere. It is a super clean and cute apartment, which made for a fantastic getaway. Our host was just as wonderful. Thank you!!!
For a friends’ stay in Portland with no car this was an excellent location and literally just a street away from the Old Port area. The unit was on a secured floor, and on upper floor which was great for light, view and quiet. The elevator was an unusual find in this part of town. Pictures were accurate and good perspective on unit; place was “as advertised”. Kitchen was fine for brief stay and very clean, but would be spare for cooking whole meals. Beds were comfortable, as were the linens. Extremely convenient to lots of shops and restaurants, bars.
Every holiday, my brother and his wife and I go to visit friends in Portland. This is a perfect two bedroom condo that has all the amenities in terms of a fully stocked kitchen and the most comfortable beds and pillows. It’s very clean and beautifully decorated. The key is also the LOCATION! This place is in the heart of the Old Port so once you park your car, you can walk to some of the nicest shops and best restaurants. Erika, our property manager, answered all of my questions quickly . One recommendation is do not park at the Fore Street garage. Instead go one block over and valet it at the Portland Regency. You can go in and out and it’s $30 a day which is better than $55 a day at the garage.
It was our annual girls’ trip: 4 ladies in early 50s…
The pros:
—GREAT location, can walk to all attractions, restaurants and cute boutiques/shops.
—Excellent communication with host. Instructions were clear and understandable.
—Kitchen stocked with more than enough dish ware, silverware, cookware
—Building’s laundry room easily accessible—did not have to pay & plenty of machines
—2 minute walk to STANDARD BAKERY—we had breakfast pastries from there every day
The cons:
—Nearby businesses had loud music until 12pm on Friday & Saturday nights. So if you’re a light sleeper—bring earplugs or sleep in the living room—which one of us had to do. It was quiet our first & last nights (Thursday & Sunday).
—We had to install one of the window AC units ourselves, and the parts are not measured to fit the window sill properly, so we had to “jerry-rig” it with a hand towel to make it work.
—The Fore Street parking garage was expensive at $60/day. My friend parked at the Cumberland County Courthouse parking garage, which is at $30/day & 10 minute walk. We did have to exit & re-enter each day with that garage, even if we spent the entire day in Portland.
Nonetheless, this property was still reasonably priced compared to area lodging. Would definitely re-book with earplugs:noise cancelling headphones packed in suitcase.
We had a wonderful stay. The apartment is great. Amazing location right in the heart of downtown just steps away from shops, restaurants, and activities. We would definitely stay here again.
We enjoyed our stay very much. The apartment was well stocked and the beds were super comfortable. The apartment is wxtemely well located so that you can walk around the corner to Holy Donuts before the cannoli donuts sell out.
This is the second year we've rented this property. Not only is it "white glove" CLEAN, but you couldn't find a better location in Old Port. You are right in heart of all of the restaurants and shops and across the street from the waterfront. Erika, the host, is phenomenal with communication. She'll help with you restaurant recommendations, good shops to check out, etc. The kitchen is fully equipped and the beds are super comfortable. Look no further - this is the place and we'll be back next December!!
The apartment was comfortable, clean and well stocked. It was a little noisy on Friday and Saturday nights, but that is to be expected in this downtown location. The AC fans blocked the noise. Very convenient location.
Great apartment. We had to fuss with the window ACs a bit but got them working. The only annoying thing was the parking. The easy parking was very expensive. We found a reasonable lot though a walk away.
It was all terrific. There was one issue with the apartment on the last night but they responded promptly and while it could not be fixed because of the holiday they were attentive and apologetic.
This apartment was really nicely appointed. Fairly easy to find. Parking is a bit tricky. plan on using the pay parking lot next door. Since this is right downtown, everything is within a short walking distance, but Friday night was a bit loud (for us fair-weather sleepers).
Communication with the host was great! All in all, I would recommend this place.
First off communications with Erika were wonderful. Always answered us in a timely manner. The locaton of the apt is wonderful for walking to restaurants etc and felt very safe. The apartment itself is very clean and everything looks and feels new and the beds very comfortable. Cons were that washer and dryer are not in the unit itself, they are on a separate floor and are pay. While there is a parking lot right across the alley it costs 70 a day and street parking was very limited as we were there during Winter Storm Fern. If you like to read in bed at night bring a book light as there are no bedside lamps and as mentioned in other reviews bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper.
