Please be advised your apartment is at the epicenter of the Old Port which is known for its nightlife and there will be outside noise from the restaurants and bars especially in the evenings and on weekends. We provide earplugs for your comfort if you may be retiring early and/or are noise sensitive.

Location of property was amazing for the group of friends. We were worried about the steps we needed to take to get to the Loft when arrived but was nice to get the exercise! We had 8 ladies & having 3 bathrooms was amazing!!! It was easy to get Whole Foods to deliver some snacks. And we were able to walk everywhere! I highly recommend this property!

I’m also glad the steps didn’t take away from your experience—they do add a bit of charm from the center of the Old Port! I would love to welcome you back anytime you’re in back in town!

Girls Trip

This condo was absolutely perfect for a girls weekend in Portland! My friends and I had a blast and the condo is walkable from just about everything Portland has to offer. It gets a bit loud at night because of the nearby bars but the host provided plenty of earplugs which help tremendously! The photos also don't do it justice... the condo is even cuter and cozier in person!

Great location with lots of space

This place was central to everything in the Old Port section of downtown portland. The loft had three roomy bedrooms each with their own bathroom plus plenty of common space. Very clean and comfortable with all the amenities we needed. Back bedrooms were loud from the late night bars but the Vrbo description gave fair warning and the ear plugs helped.

This is our second year staying here and will definitely continue to stay at this location whenever we travel to Portland. It’s always a group of 6-8 and there is more then enough room for all of us and meeting every requirement we need. Location is perfect to walk around the shops and restaurants.

From the ease of check in to the cleanliness to the ample amenities to the superb location, this apartment has it all. The friendly owner/manager was always available for communication.

Girls Weekend

Seven of us went on a girls' weekend. This is our second year in a row in this building for a weekend getaway. The overall cleanliness was terrific. Everything we needed was within walking distance. The only downfall was the listing says parking is included; however, it is not. If parking is not included, maybe lowering the price to stay would be better. We spent $210 to park two cars for two nights.

Jennifer, I apologize if you misunderstood the listing details concerning parking. I try to be as transparent as possible with all the listing details and explain that there is no dedicated parking with the apartment as it is right down town. Parking is a definite premium in the Old Port for sure and recommend possibly parking outside the city and carpooling in one vehicle to save on the cost of parking. Thanks so much for being a repeat guest and we hope to have you stay with us again! My best, Dena

PERFECT location

We were in town for a family wedding… Prefer VRBO’s over hotels… This was a perfect choice. There is a bedroom downstairs and two bedrooms upstairs all with own bathroom. Kitchen was well stocked. And Trader Joe’s is walkable for groceries. But if you didn’t want to cook there are restaurants EVERYWHERE with a great brunch place literally next door. Highly recommend this property – my only statement would be it can get a little hard climbing up two flights of stairs to get to the front door and then there is another set of stairs if you’re sleeping upstairs. My 30 year old daughter didn’t seem to mind at all so it’s just us old folk but even saying that I would stay there again. 😎 and the communication with the property manager is superb and very helpful with a pre-prepared sheet of places you might want to check out.

Great Stay in a Great Location

More than anything we loved the location. Also, the ACs crank so you won't be hot after walking up two big flights of stairs. The internet is good, the place is very clean and really nice that each bedroom had its own bathroom. Some cons: - Hot water ran out when everyone was trying to get ready at the same time. - The washer and dryer are shared with another unit. It wasn't a problem for us but FYI incase you need to do a lot of laundry. - The kitchen was small and it wasn't very well equipped. e.g. no cookie sheets, cheese grater, etc. It has the basics. - There are two flights of stairs so pack light. Also, the street is very busy with no dedicated parking. We had to wait for town to die down before being able to park near the unit and unload our van. - The master bedroom has light shades that don't block the light. At 3 AM the city lights make it seem like day time. Bring a night mask. - Noise: We stayed Sunday - Thursday and didn't have any problem with noise.
