Find the Cheap Gorham Hotels

Location ok wireless connectivity wasn’t the best could be better close to food

April School vacation we planned a one night stay-cation at the Ramada. I should have known better, being that we live less than a few miles away from the Ramada. But, I unfortunately trusted the 3 star rating. We live near the Clarion hotel and we were looking for step up from that hotel. We were looking a simple hotel that felt safe, clean, decent food, and had a pool. The Ramada failed on all fronts! The only good thing about this hotel is the exceptionally patient staff behind the front desk. This staff has an incredibly hard job. While trying to perform their jobs, they are constantly monitoring unwelcome guests and guest who have been served far too much alcohol at their bar and restaurant. This creates a unsafe space for hotel employees and guests. We were a party of three one adult and two children under the age of 10. My children both expressed feeling unsafe while we were outside of our room. One of many incidents included a very intoxicated man who was a hotel guest at their bar. He came towards us calling my children his children and walked right into a wall, and fell down right in front of them. They have never knowingly seen a drunk person. Now thanks to our stay at the Ramada they have. This was one of many experiences we had that led us to feel unsafe outside of our room. In our room there was a pubic hair on the ice bucket tray. The rooms are dingy and bathrooms feel very worn in and dirty. We made sure our doors were bolted and secure. The doors felt secure with the exception of the patio door but we were on the 3rd floor. We did have dinner at the Seasons restaurant. Skip the food and get dessert. The desserts were really good. The mozzarella sticks we ordered only one actually had cheese in it. The tater tots were freezer burned and you could taste that even though they were smothered in cheese. Finally the pool and hot tubs. Algae around the pool platform allows for an extra slippery surface and of course fungus. The hot tubs were very cloudy and felt a layer of slime on our skin after being in them. The pool lining is lifted in many areas and has a ring of dirt around the interior edges. In the early morning we found a non guest using the pool area to bath. Next time we are looking for a average hotel for a stay-cation that feels safe, clean, decent food and a pool we will choose the Clarion near our house. Or perhaps we will splurge and get a good quality hotel elsewhere in town.

Have stayed here previously so I knew what to expect. Hotel staff were friendly, room was very clean. The hotel is starting to show its age but it was clean. The hotel has a convenient little shop with gifts and snacks in the lobby and free breakfast in the morning. Not a bad hotel for an overnight stay.

My wife and I came to Portland Maine to visit family. We stayed at the Sheraton Sable Oaks and we were very pleased we did. I would like to thank Chris Merriam Exec Chef for his kind and generous hospitality. What a gentleman! Meg Poulin Sales Manager happened to come by our table just to say hello. Imagine that? And Suzie our waitress took very good care us. Through our conversations we determined that between the three of these wonderful people there was over 90 years of hospitality expeience at this single property. Can you imagine? That ”is” the testament of this matchless property. We...will...be staying there again. Thank you all

The bed is super soft and super comfortable, the environment is still very good, there are supermarkets and popeyes nearby, love and love! Very affordable space is also very large! No loss star hotel

Stayed three nights, in two different rooms (checked out and checked back in days later). First room had many issues, from shower safety bar pulling out of the wall, to extremely noisy a/c needing motor bearings, to some mold in shower area, and while room was recently repainted there were dozens of paint spots on the carpet. The bathroom is tiny, need to move your legs to close the door while on the toilet. And there is almost no counter space in the bathroom. The breakfast was ok, only one fresh fruit in addition to packaged fruit cups, it does have hot eggs or hot egg sandwiches and ham/bacon. Overall this was an average experience, I expect more from Marriott properties, who have chosen to charge extra for the name.
