Hampton Inn Portland Downtown - Waterfront

Hampton Inn Portland Downtown - Waterfront

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel was well located, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. However, the bathroom seemed to have a leak, as there were visible water stains on the ceiling. The other downside was the parking. It wasn’t free, and there was no option for self-parking, so you had to use the hotel’s parking service. Other than those issues, we had a pleasant stay and were happy with the overall experience."

"The ONLY issue we had was the shuttle from the airport to the hotel. We called several times to be picked up. It never came. We ended up taking the public bus and walk several blocks to our hotel at the end of a very long travel day. Not ideal."

"Room and entire property was clean and well maintained. Staff was nice and helpful. There are two choices for parking: you can park in the garage yourself, just give your plate number at the front desk. You can also leave your car for valet parking in front of the hotel. Breakfast was very good. It’s not a continental breakfast, you order from a menu."

"The property was exactly as described! The house was clean and the rooms were accurately described. The kitchen was stocked with essentials and there was a small spice rack. The location was great, not a quick Uber ride or a reasonable walk for those that prefer. The host provided some great recommendations as well. We would rent again."

Studio Apartment near downtown Walkable!

Studio Apartment near downtown Walkable!

8/10 Good
"The property was very homey feeling and reasonably priced but for as many units there are, parking was insufficient. It’s definitely if you get a spot don’t go anywhere because you might not have a spot when you come back. Getting to the beach by vehicle and using gps took longer than getting back and that was surprising. Overall, loved the area. If you’re familiar with living in apartments, then you will understand you can hear all the footsteps of the person above you. We traveled with our pups and every little sound had them on high alert. The area felt safe and everything you could need was close enough to a few minutes drive to possible 8 miles to the nearest Walmart. Overall, I would stay again if I visited Maine, but for us that’s 8.5 hour drive. I enjoyed the experience, the overly friendly people, the atmosphere, the food, pretty much would live here if I could afford to do so."
