Clean guesthouse with friendly staff. The location was good and also it was a lovely area of Portland with plenty of bars and restaurants. The free cereal / tea and coffee was a big plus

Nice location, close to some very nice bars and restaurants. The self check-in is made very easy by the host, which is very handy. The room, bathroom and kitchen area were very clean and welcoming, I would stay there again!

the warmest of welcomes from Tim both before and during the stay, a charming building located in an upmarket and safe neighbourhood handy for downtown, full of character, the common room was a nice surprise, plus being able to store luggage securely after check out was a huge bonus

    Thank you for writing. Booking dot com calls our Rooms 1 and 4 (both have 1 queen and 1 single bed) "Double Rooms". Room #3 has 1 queen bed and they call it "Budget Double Room". Room 2 has 1 single bed called "Budget single room" Many thanks! Tim
