Great location because it's at the center of everything. You can walk to everything: restaurants, grocery, shops, etc. The rooms, furnishings and decor are very well done. We made use of the kitchen for a couple of meals, and had everything we needed.Hosts were very attentive and were quick to respond. We clogged a drain and the Tyler helped us remedy the situation fast, even though it was later in the day.

Perfect, cozy location for Portland stay

68 Hampshire is the perfect central location to all that Portland has to offer, walkable to myriad shops, restaurants, the water, and more. A full kitchen, big rooms and dining area, it’s great for a weekend stay to a week or more.

We had a great time staying here during the Portland half marathon weekend. We had 5 adults stay Friday night and we all fit more than comfortably in the apartment. There were three large bedrooms that accommodated us all and a large dining room table for us all to comfortably eat at. The bathroom had more than enough towels for all of us, which was such a nice surprise. The apartment is walking distance to some amazing restaurants and breweries and just a few blocks from the waterfront. Such an incredible spot and we're already hoping we can stay here again next year!

The apartment was very spacious and charming. It had everything that we needed to feel very comfortable. It is located waterfront and the restaurants. An added bonus is that it is right across the street from a grocery store and pharmacy. My family would definitely stay there again.

Nicely appointed apartment in a good location

A fun place to stay. The building is over 100 years old and has that vintage vibe, but everything worked fine (note that the window air conditioner was sitting in the closet but during our stay wasn't needed). Close to several restaurants as well as the waterfront park.

A nice stay in Old Port.

We had a great stay at this vrbo in Old Port Portland. It was clean, well decorated, and the hosts had great communication. It had everything we needed and was in a good spot that was walking distance to everything. My only note for guests considering booking this place is that parking for more than one car was a little expensive. The hosts did a good job communicating the parking options. However, if you are bringing more than one car plan to pay 30 a day for garage parking as street parking was not free during the day and had a time limit.Overall, I do recommend this place and had a great stay!

Isabella is a locally-known artist and creative professional. Her paintings can be found in the apartment or at her art gallery in Searsport Maine, Bella Weidner Art.
