We loved our time at the Abode. It was possibly the coziest place I've ever stayed, like a houseboat! Every place you look was something old and beautiful and lovingly cared for. The bed is definitely the most comfortable I've ever slept in! It was so easy to walk to and from Alberta Street where there seems to be endless things to check out. We took the bus to downtown and drove over to Mississippi. There is so much to do in Portland and it was wonderful to have a nice place to relax in at night. We had our one and a half year old son with us and our pack and play fit snuggly next to the bed. He enjoyed Portland, it's a very kid-friendly place. Penelope was super helpful and friendly! I highly recommend staying here!
