As you enter, you’re greeted by a warm and inviting space. The exposed brick and hardwood floors add a touch of history, while modern furnishings and appliances create a comfortable and stylish atmosphere. You’re drawn to the spacious living area with floor-to-ceiling glass overlooking Congress Street. It’s the ideal place to relax with a cup of fresh brewed coffee or your favorite glass of wine and watch the world go by. Your fully equipped kitchen is perfect for whipping up a snack using the freshest seafood from the local purveyor down the street. After a fun filled day browsing the many local boutiques and galleries or cruising the bay there’s nothing better than pampering yourself in the roomy glass shower and toweling off with the plush white towels. Then it’s time to head out to experience the city’s diverse culinary masters, thriving nightlife and music scene of Portland. A quick walk brings you back for a relaxing sleep in your new queen bed, finished with fresh luxe linens, in your eclectic and comfortable bedroom with large east-facing windows overlooking the Portland Museum of Art and views out to Casco Bay. As you drift off to sleep, you listen to the faint sounds of the city below. The hum of traffic, laughter of people still enjoying the evening and an occasional gull guarding its dinner.

The apartment is immaculate. Coming from the suburbs of Charleston SC urban life is an adjustment, parking car on the street, traffic etc. Parking on the street after 6 pm is free and we were lucky each night for this to happen. Parking garage was also close by. In addition this location is close to breakfast places and fantastic Otto’s pizza that even 79 year olds can walk to! One night we had a problem with Net Felix and our hostess promptly and very pleasantly fixed it. Her attention to welcoming and preparing us could not have been better. ##### Lorraine P.

We parked our car at the parking garage that was recommended and were easily able to walk to all the restaurants and shops we visited. The apartment was very spacious for 2 people and had everything we needed for our 2 nights. I am a light sleeper and used the ear plugs that were provided in the welcome basket to drown out the noise from the street at night, which definitely helped. Portland has so much to do and see and this apartment was the ideal location for all of it. ##### Christine L. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alyssa d.
