Great hotel for a stay in Portland great price for March.
Pros:

Loved the hotels BMW that would drive you to where you wanted to go. Friendly driver and great to not have to find parking in the city.
Room was well designed with all the creature comforts and was clean and cozy.
Loved that the bakery my daughter wanted me to get her biscuits was right next door. They were yummy.
It was a nice touch to have the desk person escort you to your room and give you the layout of things. Felt strange at first, but appreciated. Also that same woman looked up places where I could find onion soup and lobster bisque. They also communicate with the guest through text. There are no phones in the rooms.

Cons:

Paying $45 for parking, but it is the city.
Having to ask for creamer for the coffee in the room, also the French press coffee wasn’t the best coffee but that could have been operator error.
Loved that they had free carafe of water, and big bottles of shampoo and conditioner but they don’t recycle. No bins for that, but that might be a Maine thing.

Very nice front desk staff. Style was a vibe. Overall a nice stay and I will stay again:)
Pros:

I like the cleanliness, style and the price point.

Cons:

There is no phone to contact the front desk and I tired calling many times from my cell to call for valet and no one answered the phones. Also, there was blowing air directly on me in bed which dried me out tremendously as I tried to sleep.

Pros:

I liked the room, staff and location. I wish parking was complementary but understand this is a city location. I loved the restaurant accross the street, vintage stores nearby and I needed the post office so that was a bonus to be in walking distance.

Cons:

Lack of showers in the spa and the lack of flexibility for me to shower in my room after was annoying. I also overheard another guest request a lugguage cart. This time I was traveling light but I we are a family of 5 so a lugguage cart is key when I usually travel.

Sweetly memorable! Romantic
Pros:

The bar area location, the cozy, thoughtful feel that they provided in each room with personal robes variety of teas, and across from several coffee and breakfast options

Cons:

The only thing was a pool
I know it had a spa. Our visit was short and we had a lot to see but next time we will come back and take advantage of the spa.

Excellent Boutique Hotel in Portland
Pros:

Great boutique hotel in Portland. My spouse uses a walker or wheelchair and she was able to get around fine. We were in an ADA compliant room and there was adequate space to maneuver around. Walk in shower was nice as well. We grabbed some light dinner and a drink downstairs and ate in one night. Limited food selection but it was well prepared and tasty. Staff was very attentive and courteous. Will come back!

loved it
Pros:

We loved the location and boutique size of the hotel. The employee assisting us with check in was so pleasant and so helpful!
She gave us a short tour of the layout and amenities before showing us to our room and making sure we knew the best way to contact staff for any needs during our stay—really appreciated this!
It was great to have a quaint bar and cafe in the hotel as well which we really enjoyed!!

Treat Yourself at the Longfellow!
Pros:

Our stay at the Longfellow was perfect! From check-in to check-out, the staff was so kind and efficient! Our room was spotless and very comfortable. Our coffee, lunches, and snacks were delicious. The lobby was calm and relaxing, and a great place to hang out after a day of sight-seeing. We’ll definitely be back!
