Pros: The staff person that worked in the breakfast area was very friendly and welcoming. He made an effort with everyone that arrived for breakfast. The location is really good. 5 miles from Portland and overlooking South Portland.
Cons: The property is currently under renovation. The heating unit in our room smelled terrible so we didn’t turn it on. Strange room setup which could be why they are renovating.

Pros: The buffet breakfast was far better than similar hotels that we stayed in. Aziz is to be commended on keeping the area clean, neat, hot and varied. Well done!
Cons: Too bad some guests think it's OK to come to breakfast in their pajamas, just TOO casual for a public space.

Best Hotel In Portland For...
Pros: We were pleasantly surprised that we were given a suite for the money we paid. The room was spaciaous and the bed was big and comfortable. We actually stayed a bit longer than planned due to being able to have a late check out. Speaking of checking out, it was very streamlined and we didn't even have to visit the front desk when we left. The kitchenette in the unit was great and had a microwave, fridge, dinnerware, silverware and coffee mugs/glasses. The breakfast that was served in the morning far exceeded the normal "continental breakfast expectations" of coffee, pastries and cereal. We had little interaction with the staff but for what we did have, they were both friendly and very helpful. For the money, I don't think that better can be had in the Portland area. We wil be staying there again in the near future and would highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys creature comforts at a budget price.
Cons: If my only criticism is that the towels could have benefited from some fabric softener, then I will say that there was little to complain about.

Big room, nice staff.
Pros: The staff was very accommodating and nice. I asked for sheets, pillows and blankets for the fold out couch in our room.
The room had a kitchenette and a livingroom area.
Great breakfast. The man was very polite who manned it. It was well stocked and very clean.
Cons: The air in the room kept the bed side of the room comfortable but the couch side a little warm.
There were only three of everything but we had four people in our room.
The couch wasn't very comfortable. Not sure if it was because it was a little old. The decor was dated but clean.
