    breakfast timing

    My stay at Portland Guesthouse was delightful. The cozy, well-decorated King Room and friendly staff left a lasting impression. The location allowed easy access to the town, adding to my experience. Only downside was breakfast timing, but overall, a charming place. I would happily return.

    Charming stay with warm service

    During my stay, I was welcomed with a friendly atmosphere and delightful decor that made me feel right at home. The breakfast options were diverse and delicious, with local produce enhancing the meal. I also appreciated the quick check-in process and the accommodating staff who ensured all my needs were met. I found the coffee machine's location to be slightly inconvenient. a better placement would enhance the experience even more.

    clean room
    lovely garden
    tricky parking

    We arrived a bit early, but our room was ready and it was super clean and fresh, just what we needed on a hot day! I loved relaxing in the lovely garden while sipping tea, and there were cozy nooks to unwind in too. Just a heads up, parking was a bit tricky as there’s no street parking right outside, but it didn’t ruin our stay! 😊

    friendly staff
    excellent breakfast
    small room
    basement location
    cramped space

    The staff truly stand out with their friendliness and willingness to accommodate our needs, like setting a table for us to play a board game. Our King Room was small yet well-decorated, bright, and notably quiet, with an exceptionally comfortable bed. Breakfast offerings were excellent, particularly the French toasts, freshly prepared to order. the room's basement location might not be ideal for everyone's preferences, and the space felt a bit cramped at times.

    great ethos but could use some updates

    I appreciated the commitment to supporting vulnerable people through hospitality training. The staff provided excellent service during my check-in and breakfast.

    Both the room and bathroom appeared tired.
