Great stay

My husband and I stayed here with our two year old daughter and had a great time! We didn't have a car and didn't need one, it was a bit of a hike into town but we were happy to walk and enjoyed exploring the west end neighborhood nearby. The apartment is very large and sunny! Both the bed and couch felt a little old and saggy but we still slept fine.

Amazing stay in Portland

This house is conveniently located to all the touristy spots and restaurants in Portland. The owner was very communicative and gave us directions to enter the house. Despite being on the main road and kinda next door to a firehouse it was quiet in the house. My only grub is the real early checkin but apart from that I would say we got everything we needed to stay while roaming around Portland

Weekend in Portland

This apartment looked just like the pics. It was cozy and convenient to all things. A little Bit of a walk to downtown, but an Uber back was less expensive than parking! The property was comfortable, neighborhood was quiet. Apartment came with all things you need. Host was a great communicator and available if we needed anything- which we didn’t! Highly recommend this property.

Great, large apartment!

This was our first time in Portland and we really enjoyed staying here. The apartment is cute, well stocked and in a good location. Having so many fans was helpful. My only gripe is that the only mirror is the bathroom vanity. I would have loved a full length mirror to use. Other than that, It felt like a home away from home.

Perfect spot, great trip

Brad’s apartment was in an amazing location and very spacious for the two of us. It is well kept and everything was clean and safe. Had everything we needed for our week long trip. We were first time Maine visitors and were so happy to realize we were in such an easily accessible area. The pictures don’t do it justice!

This might be a long story but I contacted Brad just before our first flight as it was delayed by an hour and unfortunately we missed out connecting flight to Portland. He offered to extend our stay without extra charges which we happily accepted. He was most the accommodating person for us and we would recommend anyone/couple staying here as the place was easy to find, secured and comfortable. Brad, if you are reading this, you are actually the best!!!

The apartment was roomy and very nicely decorated. It was comfortable and convenient to great restaurants. This has nothing to do with the apartment, but there was very noisy construction right in front of the building. Also, the parking situation was extremely tight but was fine once we got the hang of it. I have sleep issues so a bed couch would have been helpful as I never sleep well when not at home. That being said, it still was a great place to stay and the owner was very responsive.

762 Congress Street

The apartment photgraphs well, but does not live up to the photos. The cord for the fan in the bedroom is very short and only reached by standing on the bed. Back stair door tied open with a dog leash (really?). Dirt and dust from holes in brick wall behind the kitchen sink. King bed too big for that room - hard to walk around. Closet is poor; dresser drawer handles broken. Duct tape over pocket doors between LR and DR. Owner needs better arrangement for trash besides telling us to either buy the city bags or take it daily to a trash can at a gas station. Did not enjoy this VRBO

OK, even pretty, for a last minute find

A nice, spacious apartment on the edge of downtown at the top of a tortuous staircase with no railing. Manager responsive when... convenient to him? Pretty place that could have used more towels (no hand towel), a bathmat etc. (although well supplied with tech). For the price, we expected a little more...

Very convenient location in Portland

The apt is in a great location. It's 15-20 min walk to ALL of Old Port. The Bramhall Pub is a great speakeasy directly across the street for a nightcap. There are 2 excellent coffee shops within 2 mins walk. Salvage BBQ is about 2 blocks away where you can get some awesome BBQ (hard to find outside of TX). You are also about 15 min from Hadlock Field, home of the Sea Dogs. All in all a nice place. The biggest drawback is the construction around the apt. Makes it a bit of a pain to get in and out of the apt parking but that's not a deal breaker. Landlord is a good guy - communication is easy. Stay here, you won't be disappointed

Unfriendly neighborhood, house not guest friendly, no lights around the alley to the back door where

Hello Brad, We are writing to let you know we have checked out of your property, we were extremely disappointed with the place, outside it was completely dark and in our opinion guest unfriendly. The posted pictures are not a realistic representation of the condition of the place. At this point we have had to find alternative lodging for the weekend and we are requesting that you provide a partial refund.

Very interesting apartment built in 1924 with a lot of charm

The apartment was cozy and we loved all the amenities however the owner had a few problems that I'm sure he has fixed by now. The heater didn't work, the shower needed repair and the TV wasn't working. But Portland Maine is a very interesting historic town and we enjoyed being there
