About this property

East end. Walk to food, beer and downtown fun.

Please enjoy my accurate description so that you know what to expect. This place is perfect to arrive to Portland, dump your luggage off, go out and enjoy the city, come back to a cozy clean bed. Not intended to sit around and pretend you are at home. Marriot members will not be satisfied. Street parking only and it is free.

This a unique historic Portland tenant building from 1886. It is perfectly not perfect. The floors are wide pine and creek a bit and feel slightly uneven. The bedrooms are basic sized large enough for a bed and a few tables. The beds are new Nectar foam mattresses and the linens are brand new. Light quilt blankets for the summer and down comforters for the fall/winter are provided. Bedroom windows have darkening shades and a wall mounted heater for cold nights and fans for warm nights. Guests often remark at how quiet it is at night for being in the middle of the city the second floor. The tenants upstairs don't make much noise.

The AC will keep most or the place cool on average summer days and struggle on rare 100 degree days. I provide 4 table and window fans as well.

The kitchen has everything you need for basic cooking however, with so much great food in Portland no on ever cooks. The toaster oven is a healthier way of heating food and I will never advocate for microwaves nor own one. The slice toaster is available too along with pots and pans and utensils. Ninja coffee maker with coffee and sugar is available. Spices, salt and pepper, cooking spray and oil are provided.

Bathroom is renovated with a BathFitter tub, flooring, ceiling, sink and fresh paint. There are liquid soaps are included. The water will take a few minutes to get hot and the water pressure is average.

There is a semi private room with a desk if you have calls to make or need to do some work. There is no door to shut hence "semi private".

The spare room behind the kitchen is used as a utility closet and rear egress. Not intended to be used for guests however please use for emergencies.

The sidewalk can get icey in the winter. There will be salt and sand by the front door. I ask all tenants to make it safe for others and feel free to toss some out.

I'm sure I'll miss something however, I know you will enjoy your stay and the city and I always very responsive if guests need anything. Enjoy!!!
Please remember there are tenants above and below you. Please conscious of noise and loud music during late hours.

If you need the sofa bed please gently move the table and to make room and slip the cover off.

There is a TV yet no cable. There is Roku and Google Chrome available. Bring your own device to hook up if you wish.

Please ball up the sheets and place in the utility room behind the kitchen. Towels can go in the hamper or left in the bathroom.

Please recycle common recyclable material. Food is not recyclable. Maine has a bottle return deposit. Please keep those separate.

The hot water will take a while to flow as the building uses an on demand system.

Please do not dump bacon grease down the drain.

Two-day getaway to Portland

Quite convenient to the port area, the heart of which is about a mile walk from the property, mostly downhill; an easy 20-min walk to the wharves with all the restaurants.

Enjoyed our stay

We needed a place for an overnight stay in Portland, and this was a great choice for us. The location was within walking distance to many restaurants and the waterfront. The apartment had everything we needed and some nice touches as well (Brita water pitcher was much appreciated!). The communication from the owner was excellent.

A Great Place To Stay

This was the perfect place for my friends and I to sleep on New Year’s Eve. Enough beds for the three of us, and within walking distance to Fore Street so we didn’t have to navigate downtown parking. Davian was an attentive and informative host, providing not only information regarding the property, but also area attractions and points of interest. If you’re looking for a sunlit apartment near the city center, I would recommend this one!

Our 3 night stay in Portland's Monjoy neighborhood was the perfect compliment to our Maine vacation. Everything was in walking distance, and we took ample advantage of many long hikes and walks . Davian is a gracious host, and provided thoughtful touches to make us feel welcome . comfy beds, and ample kitchen supples.

Very comfortable and close to downtown

I'm so glad we booked this apartment, it is so close to downtown Portland and had plenty of space for our family of 4. Davian, the owner was very communicative and made sure we knew he was there to answer any questions we might have. The apartment is very thoughtfully filled with small things you might need like a box with small bandaids for my daughter when I had only packed standard size ones. :-)

I am a full time real estate broker and Portland resident. I manage a few properties in the area. I enjoy the Maine mountains and lakes and Maine amazing beaches. Feel free to ask me for advice on things to do in the area.

Why they chose this property

This apartment has a great place to hang your hat and rest after a day of exploring Portland. Consider it a crash pad to recharge for the next day. The location is great as it is an easy way to all the east end hot spots and the scenic eastern promenade park. Being on the second floor offers extra quiet distance from street noise. The bedrooms are on the farther half away from the street. The windows are bright with natural light in the morning. The kitchen is clean and spacious to cook a quick breakfast or morning coffee.

What makes this property unique

The sofa will drop down into an extra bed.
