The kitchenette has been stocked with stemware, coffee cups, plates, bowls & cutlery, etc. Coffee, tea, sugar, and honey will be provided.

- The living room and bedroom can be separated by the two large pocket doors that pull out from the wall.

- The couch can be converted into a double bed for a third guest, with a memory foam mattress topper in the closet available.
- For your little one, there is a Pack n Play as well as a high chair available.
Just let me know and I will set them up for you.

Great Location & Relaxing Space

We absolutely loved this apartment. It was the perfect location for walking to the downtown area and up and down Commercial Street. The apartment itself was exactly as it was described and shown in the listing. Super clean and had sheets, towels, dishes, etc. to make for a very easy stay. We generally like to eat out when traveling so the mini fridge, microwave, and electric kettle were exactly what we needed. The added touch of chocolates and bread sticks was very thoughtful. We will definitely be back!

Charming stay

We had a lovely stay in this historic home. The decor is charming and original, beds are comfy and everything is clean. The neighborhood is attractive and quiet. The information from the host was helpful. It was great to have a dedicated parking space. As described, the kitchenette has no sink but otherwise is very well equipped for simple food/beverage preparation. We look forward to staying in the future.

Historic Portland

Loved staying in this historic row house! Excellent location, very easy to walk to old port and numerous shops and restaurants. The bed was very comfortable, there was lots of space to relax in, and I enjoyed having my own bathroom. We would love to return next year.

Fantastic Experience

Loved this property. Perfect location for visiting Portland over a long weekend. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go in the city and, by extension, the islands in Casco Bay. Only needed a vehicle to get to Portland Head Light and the occasional grocery run to Shaw’s in South Portland. Would highly recommend this property to anyone. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The shower had great hot water and the dual shower head was a nice touch. If we come back, this is the first and only listing I’ll be searching for.

A very enjoysble stay in your apartment

This is a beautifully appointed apartment. It was sparkling clean and gorgeously decorated. The shower was fantastic. The neighborhood couldn’t have been better. It is close to the Art museum and we were able to walk to many attractions. It is important to note that the kitchenette has no sink nor a burner for cooking. Overall, I highly recommend it.

Beautiful apartment, bigger than it seems!

My mom, sister, and I stayed at this apartment for one night and loved it there. It was definitely enough room for the three of us. The apartment is more spacious than it seems, the bathroom is really nice, and the unit is full of cool pieces of art and antiques. Definitely recommend!

Perfect location!

We loved that we could walk everywhere! There was a designated parking for our car behind the house which was convenient. The home was beautiful and so cozy. I wouldn’t recommend it for more than 3 people but it’s perfect for small families!

Really awesome historic property in a great location

This was our first time in Portland, and we were not sure which areas to stay in, but after exploring a bit, we would pick this place again! A $6 Uber will get you pretty much anywhere downtown for eating or bars. We also walked, and it was about 15 minutes! So, it's a great location overall. It’s a historic building with charm that matches the city of Portland vibe. However, hot water was a bit of an issue at times, but the host communicated this; it makes sense given that there are other guests in the building as well. The fact that it comes with a parking spot is also awesome because parking seemed really limited downtown.

We visited the Portland museum of art and spent a winter ice storm afternoon at the Washington Baths. Ate good food, caught up about all the things. The space was wonderful and airy and warm and lovely!

Great place in Portland

Jennifer’s apartment in Portland is a great place to stay! We recently stayed four nights and couldn’t be happier. The rooms are spacious with with great light and privacy. Location was amazing. We were able to walk almost everywhere in town. Off street parking was very nice to have as well. There are stairs to get into the apartment, so one should be aware of that. Overall, a wonderful place to stay and we plan on coming back!

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer

Host profile image
I've moved home after living on the West Coast for 12 years. Currently residing on the beautiful East End, it is such a pleasure to have discovered that over the last decade or so this neighborhood has grown into a wonderfully diverse, safe and welcoming community. Plus, I love being able to walk to brunch and to the market! I desperately missed those outings, living in the car-centered culture of Los Angeles. It's been a wonderful experience meeting and hosting people from all over the world who are visiting Portland!
