    Beautiful Old Hotel

    Forget those large chain properties. This hotel dates to pre 1900s and full of charm. No cookie cutter rooms here; ours was uniquely shaped with exposed brick and although our room faced the street, it was quiet and cozy. Our pups had room to move and everyone loved them. We would visit again!

    Great affordable location

    Clean quiet room. Kind check-in staff. Good variety for self-serve breakfast off lobby. Definitely will stay again when passing through Portland with our dogs. Can’t beat the price compared to the high pet surcharge at other hotels in the area.

    Much better places to stay in Portland

    This hotel, although cute in pictures, is located right across the street from a medical center so you will hear all sorts of sirens at all hours. On top of that, hotel staff is at a minimum so there's a good chance your check-in won't be on time and anything you need from the hotel won't be taken care off on time if at all. The employees of this hotel also are unaware of the their own policies. Manager flat out lied about the circumstances. He is both rude, inflexible, and is a poor ambassador of this hotel. There are plenty of other hotels to stay at in the area that are nicer, cheaper, and in a better part of town. You can do better. PS - Manager threatened the call the cops if I posted this review. Said he had my contact information and everything. That's a great way to treat customers.

    The inn at St. John

    We were warmly welcomed on arrival. The inn is quaint, clean and well decorated. Room was delightful
    The only problem was in my choice of a room with a hall private bathroom that I would have to unlock the door any time needed it and take BoBo. The other problem I had was managing a dog and suitcase up two flights of stairs.

    Amazing staff and great experience

    I stayed here for one night with my sister and our dogs but it was just an awesome experience. The staff were so friendly and accommodating, far exceeding my expectations. The room was very clean as was the shared bathroom. We encountered several sweet pups while we were there and all around had a great experience. Location is great too! Would definitely recommend and stay here again!
