Inn at St John Portland In-Town

“It is a lovely spot, could just do with some updating.”

The staff were very pleasant and helpful, the parking facilities were great, the location was good and easily accessible, and it was nice to have tea, coffee, and snacks in the lobby, but the bathroom needs updating and could have been cleaner, the double room has a quite small bed, and it’s expensive for what you get (though understandable given the location).

“WELL LOCATED OLD HOTEL NEAR BUS STOP TO DOWNTOWN”

The hotel has a historic feel, but the breakfast area had no elevators and the steep climb was not suited to some.

The location was great, but the bed was very hard.

“Rundown, grimy, depressing, and not even close to being worth the money.”

The staff were friendly, and the hotel sits near a convenient bus line, but the breakfast was disappointingly basic—only cereal and yogurt, no hot options—so I’m not sure why it’s highlighted as a perk. The spot isn’t great for exploring downtown Portland, and our room faced the street, making the constant traffic noise and nightly sirens from the hospital across the street unbearable. When we arrived, I had to call eight times before someone answered to check if our room was ready early. The room itself was in poor condition with peeling wallpaper, chipped paint, and stains everywhere; the pillows were flat and likely as old as the building, and housekeeping failed to remove dirty dishes. The shower was cramped, barely enough space to turn around. I chose this place hoping for a charming, historic inn vibe, but it turned out far grimmer and more rundown than expected, and the location added to the disappointment. It wasn’t worth the price we paid; a chain hotel by the water would have been a better deal, and this stay is the only regret from our Portland trip.

“All the staff we encountered were extremely friendly, welcoming, helpful and very responsive.”

We immensely appreciated having our private bathroom within the room. The room was quite small though. The morning breakfast was very nice and convenient.fruit, yogurt, breads, coffee, deviled eggs, juice, etc. The towels were not typical hotel quality; larger in size for adults and more plush. They were poor quality. Our mattress was broken but when we addressed this, the staff immediately came to review and was replaced within 5 minutes. Also, the bath mat had mold on the underside. Took it to front desk and it was addressed immediately
