Sue met us when we checked in, got us acquainted with the apartment, and showed us a map of Portland so we knew where we were in relation to restaurants etc. The apartment was great for a long weekend stay in Portland.

Sue greeted us when we arrived, gave us a tour and sat down with us to make recommendations of things to do and where to try our first lobster roll. I would stay here again, it’s spacious, quiet and comfortable with all the luxuries of home. The location was perfect for everything we did and having a designated parking space was nice.
