I had a Junior Suite and it was lovely. Bed was extremely comfortable and it was very quiet. I will say the breakfast is costly in my opinion but it was great.

Gorgeous grounds and venue with a beautiful oceanfront view. Plenty of parking as part of SMCC campus. Short drive to downtown Portland and lots of stores around in South Portland. Very unique experience, would stay again without hesitation!
