The room overlooks a lighthouse, and the views are beautiful at dusk and breakfast. It's a peaceful and comfortable option if you're driving. The young community college student staff are friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay here again next time I'm in Portland. The only downside is that there aren't as many power outlets in the room as in newer hotels.

This was the perfect getaway for us to visit Maine. Location was perfect and had so much to offer in the city. Quiet and Peaceful. We had the suite which was perfect. Definitely try McKernan In out. Staff were all super friendly and helpful for dinner recommendations, bars or things to do.

Located on a Community College. Most of the employees were students majoring in hospitality. We enjoyed this concept. They were very helpful. View of Casco Bay was incredible.

Super impressed with this hotel. Right on the water and ample parking. Short drive to everything and conveniently located. Breakfast was very nice and loved having coffee available earlier. Staff was great!

Great location. Remote, relaxing and clean. View was amazing. Don’t expect too much for breakfast. They serve coffee, fruits, yogurt, oatmeal and juices. Will definitely come back.

Staff was very friendly, place is quiet, and there are great views. Ben was comfortable, especially liked the pillows. We could see portland head light from our room. Breakfast was good. We had quiche and fruit but my husband cant do dairy so I wish there was a little bit of choice in what you get served. We apprechiated having access to complimentary bottled water during the stay. The room was clean. Our only complaint is the room could use some maintenance, especially in the bathroom.
