LivAway Suites Portland-Scarborough

Chambre sans trop agrément mais c'est pour dormir. C'est Correct

- floor covered in hair and dirt - bed sheets had dog hair on them. The dog hair was down to the mattress cover. When I told the front desk, he had a house keeper come to change the sheets. She brought us stained sheets and rolled her eyes when I insisted clean sheets. After replacing the mattress cover she tried putting our original dog hair covered sheets back on the bed and tried covering it up by picking the hair off. I (for the 4th time now) insisted on clean bedding. I ended up sleeping in a sleeping bag on the bed because it was late and I wasn’t getting anywhere. - paper thin walls - hair in the bathroom on floor and shower walls - WiFi barely worked - no iron - no hair dryer

Check in was easy and room was nice

As soon as I walked into the hotel I was met with a horrible smell. It was throughout the building. I was so thankful I only had to stay one night. Upon checking out, staff was not very helpful.

Only what you need. Nice coffee in the morning. Clean rooms. No hassle. Don't expect lot of fan fair. This is bare bone and you have all you need

👍👍👍

THE GOOD…. Location, price, cold A/C, hot shower, clean, quiet and management were hands on. THE WHAT… weird smells (probably from being new and people cooking various dishes in the rooms). Basic hotel with very little personality. I would’ve given a five star rating but a guest in our room had a problem with the awkward smell. I will most likely stay again and would recommend you give it a try.

I

Nothing The smell in the hall and in the room, staff didn’t seem to want to be bothered

Its location & the space! The floor was filthy and there are absolutely no amenities in the kitchen which seems silly.

Good

We booked a one night stay several weeks ago and received several confirmations and when I went to the property to check in they had no rooms available. The charge is still pending on my account for the night that I did not stay because they had no rooms available!! Absolutely ridiculous and extremely unprofessional.

This is a self check-in hotel, it simple to check in but when you've been up for 22 hrs the self check and kios can be difficult. The only person from staff there hardly spoke English. Checking out was very difficult. The kids could not check me out. I hope im checked out.

Good bed, however missing pots and pans and other appliances that one would use with the full kitchen that was given

Pros: Convenient location Very clean Lots of parking Comfy bed Nice TV Window opens Full-size fridge Nice island for eating Laundry room Gym Cons: Ceiling light and switches are an odd setup... witing is likely incorrect. Most of the electrical outlets are loose and won't hold a plug. I plugged in a phone charger, and i2 seconds later it sparked and fell out. There is a very odd, organic-type smell throughout the hotel. No hairdryer No iron No tissues The only toiletries they offer is 1 bar of soap and one tiny tube of shampoo. Bathroom only stocks towels for 2 No cleaning service Only 1 trash can we had to take it out to the dumpster ourselves. Only 1 luggage trolley No coffee maker in room No cooking or eating utensils for kitchen. Some other things to note: There was a person hanging out in the lobby with a pet the entire time we were there. It was strange. My impression is they are over-budget on operating expenses.

My family of 5, (with 3 small kids under the age of 6), were never able to stay in our room in the two nights booked. We reserved 7 total rooms for our party and were not able to join them.

Picked hotel because it was pet friendly , close to Portland (15 min), and more affordable than in the city. We got there half hour early and the front desk was very helpful and checked us in early. We got a room on 4 th floor, a bit incovenient with the dog going up and down the elevator several times a day. After reading other reviews, I decided to bring my own towels, toiletries and hair dryer. The room didn’t have any. Front desk guy was helpful and provided 2 towels. Room was clean, AC worked well, comfortable bed and pillows, blinds blocked light well enough, several hangers were available. They also had a laundry basket. Kitchen had all appliances advertised, several clean dishes in the dishwasher (breakfast bowls, glasses and some utensils), also a kitchen towel, but no tissues or soap in the bathroom. Small grassy area around the back door for dogs, with poop bags and garbage can. The water fountain wasn’t working that well, barely a trickle, took a while to fill up half the bottle, but they had a stocked vending machine. When we got there on Fri afternoon , there was plenty of parking, but by Saturday it got busy, less spots to pick from when we got back late at night. It was pretty quiet, considering they seemed full. Coffee available in the morning by the front desk, but not that good, and no milk, only creamer. Coffee shop 10 min walking distance, with several choices of bagel/biscuit sandwiches, very generous portion of eggs, good croissant. Would recommend.

AVOID IF YOU CAN!!! There's a kitchen but no cookware or kettle to boil water, beds creak at the slightest movement, mattresses were uncomfortable, rooms were not soundproofed well (you can hear people stomping in the room above you, people next to your room closing doors, etc.), and housekeeping only comes every 2 weeks!! Every time you need new towels, you would have to bring the old towels to the front desk to exchange. Anytime you need anything, the staff will default to telling you to go to the Walmart across the street.

No toilet paper. Everything else was fine.

I am a weekly traveler that stays at this facility 90% of the time and everything is always very very good. There is no breakfast and the coffee machine is consistently inconsistent. The staff is always great and there is new manager Corey who is outstanding.
