This home was very clean and had everything we needed for a great stay in Portland. We were there during the 'heat dome' even of July (2026) and the AC kept the place cool even though that can be a challenge with historic homes. Walking distance to the port and the shops and many of the wonderful restaurants. Enjoy!!!
