The neighborhood is home to highly rated restaurants, including the much-touted Tandem Coffee Roasters, and offers a view of the White Mountains from the Western Promenade.

Convenient location

We enjoyed our stay. Several cute Cafes close by, comfortable beds and space. Close to everything. Only issue was the unit above one night partied to early morning keeping us up all night. Out of control of the host.

Perfect location for walking.

The apartment is lovely. All six of us thought the beds were comfortable, and that’s saying something. The kitchen could use actual coffee cups and glasses, and was lacking paper towels and sugar for coffee but other than that it was great. The best part though is the location! Great restaurants and within 20 minutes to the pier! We ate breakfast at Hot Suppa every morning! OMG delicious and the staff is FANTASTIC! Also, MUST get the biscuit from Tandem Bakery and Coffee Cafe across the street! That’s a DONT MISS!

Nice spot for Portland Stay

A convenient location , a close by parking spot, local popular breakfast spot across the street, nice bedrooms for our family but kitchen is small though. Recommend Portland tour by antique fire truck.

Beautiful time in Portland!

Everything was absolutely lovely at Kingsley’s place! Check-in was seamless and easy and our stay was fun and relaxing. Though the living room was not child-proofed, some quick rearranging when we checked in meant that all 3 of our toddlers were happy and playing comfortably and safely throughout our stay!

Family Trip to Portland and Acadia

Location worked well for us - quick walk to coffee/donuts. Also walkable to the Old Port area with shopping and restaurants. Highly recommend Fort Williams and Cape Elizabeth if you’re not familiar with the area. Kingsley was responsive in getting us check in info and the place was clean!

Great stay

Kingsley was a great and very communicative host. Super convenient location and 2 parking spaces definitely a plus. Place was very warm upon arrival but did cool off, bathrooms very nicely renovated. We rented this unit and the upstairs unit as we had a larger group and that worked great for us. Would stay again

Awesome apartment for friends trip

This apartment was great for our group of 8. The place had a spacious common area and good size rooms. The kitchen was a little bare in terms of supplies but it wasn’t a huge deal. It was also a great location, walking distance to many attractions or very short drives. Host was very gracious and communicative. Would stay again!

Perfect for us

The place was clean and comfortable, linens and towels were luxe, beds were comfortable and we had everything we needed in the kitchen (except perhaps a toaster). We had a lovely three day stay and walked all over Portland. Kingsley was very responsive to any questions, and when we had trouble logging into Sling TV he came over to handle it for us. No excessive noise in the neighborhood and there’s a wonderful Italian restaurant right next door. Great spot!

Family trip to Portland

The unit was as advertised, and very clean. Easy to walk to Old Port, East End, Munjoy Hill, etc. We ate at the Italian restaurant next door (very good), and had coffee at Tandem most mornings. A little neighborhood noise (construction vehicles, etc.), but that's to be expected in a downtown location. I would stay here again; Kingsley was an excellent host.

Great place in a great location

this was in the perfect location, close to downtown and the waterfront. Very nice three bedroom, two bathroom place. As mentioned before, while it is close to a fire station and next to a speakeasy, we didn't notice alot of noise at night. I would stay here again for our next Portland visit.
