Portland Bounce Dive
The staff was amazing!! Can’t say enough about the really great vibes there. It is a pet friendly hotel and I did catch some “accident” smells but they were taken care of promptly. My only real dislike is that we were put into a disabled access room and therefore the bathroom had no door!! There was a separate toilet room with a door but not one for the shower area and only two towels supplied for two people for a 3 night stay. Overall excellent stay though!!!!

The hotel itself was great but the room was lacking some soft materials. It was extremely loud and echoed everything. The toilet was not private. Some sound buffering would have made this a five star review.

Poonsri, Lincolnville

Even though, I got a room with a nice view, still it didn’t feel like it’s worth it for the price we paid. Location is great but everything else was just okay. If we had known that the breakfast was to go kind of breakfast, we would not have paid more for it. Also additional $40 valet parking made the price even less reasonable. The layout of the room was strange, shower out open in the living space? We won’t be staying here again.

Front desk should know parking situation and not just say valet. Very deceiving and greedy. $40 for valet is ridiculous in Portland, ME. Free parking across the street but not shared by hotel staff. Wall behind front desk is very visually unappealing. Minimalistic room design is not great for families. Hipster hotel vibe not jiving for families

“Value” hotel for the price of a luxury hotel
The hotel and rooms themselves are fine. They were clean but very minimal in their design. The rooms felt a bit like IKEA dorm rooms. We could hear everything going on in the streets, hallway, and neighboring rooms. I’d consider this like a “value” hotel but the problem is it’s priced the same as nicer hotels in Portland with more comforts and higher quality. The low rating reflects the value for what you get. Otherwise it was clean with no major issues.
