Great location, a room with on-suite in a wonderful historic mansion with communal kitchen.

William, then host, was very quick to respond to my questions. The house is walking distance to the port, parks and museums. We stayed in the old study / library room. The room has lovely headlight lamp shades and beautiful woodwork. Overall it suited our needs but could be much better with better maintenance. The bedroom tap leaked. The kitchen didn't have enough pots and pans. There is no access to a washing machine.

Lovely room. Unable to reach the property manager, owner. Tried the website, the app and the 24/7 number. Would have been nice to have two sets of keys for two people. Very difficult to understand all of the parking restrictions.

Wonderful room!

Such a beautifully decorated, clean, quiet room! I'm so glad we found this listing for our stay in Portland. It's close to many great food places and easy to get to and from other fun tourist activities. Thankfully parking was not an issue, either. We'll look out for this place if we find our way back to Portland!

Impressive room in a historic house

The high ceilings and woodwork were so impressive! The screw-up about check-in, which took two nervous hours, turned out to be MY FAULT in booking the wrong dates and still the manager was able to find me lodging in a similar venue for the same price for the one night in question. That takes a lot of extra effort and deserves commendation. The on-site manager was very nice and offered to help with whatever we needed. Parking was not as hard as I had feared. Yes, kitchen had limited pots and pans in the drawers, but were available upon request.
