I've been bidding for some time now, always in 3* Portland West and increasing by $2/day.

I'm unhappy with this room--I was trying for Eastland. This room should be listed in the South Portland-Airport area--so far away from the Old Port!

I have stayed at this hotel numerous times. It changed from a Doubletree to the Clarion this past year. They offer a shuttle to most anywhere in Portland. We stayed here most recently for my daughters birthday party. We were 6 teenage girls and 2 adults and they drove us downtown for dinner and picked us up afterwards. It is a very good hotel to boot.

It may be about a 7 minute drive to the Old Port, but the hotel is certainly NOT in South Portland hence making it part of the South Portland would be absolutely incorrect. It is on the Portland peninsula and in the City of Portland. Portland is indeed more than the Old Port. We've stayed at the Eastland and frankly, the hotel is falling apart. We try our best to not bid in Portland because of the risk of getting the Eastland. The $11/night garage fee eats up the p/l benefits IMHO.
