There is a very friendly longtime tenant who lives above The Downtown Den, and you will hear him coming and going at times. We have noise machines in each bedroom to help any light sleepers who like to catch that extra hour of beauty sleep :)

The apartment is about 1,100 square feet total. The living room has a heat pump for AC, and each bedroom has window AC units during the summer.

Please note there is a large, run-down Victorian home right next door that is owned by the City of Biddeford. It may cause a minor unsightly view when you first arrive at the property. The city is scheduled to renovate the building soon, and we can’t wait to see it restored to its original beauty!

    The property is just okay. The owners have modernized the interior, but have overlooked some important details. The dryer door needs to be flipped. That’s a simple 2-minute task. I got hit in the head multiple times taking stuff out of the washer and putting it in the dryer. Depending on height it could cause a serious injury. The towels are nice and fluffy, but the water never got hot and the shower head didn’t have enough pressure. The house needs a deeper cleaning in between stays. We found hair in the sheets. The place stunk of dog. We sprayed Lysol and perfume to try to kill the stench. We did not sit on the couch or use the pullout bed because it was covered in dog hair! Like could not get it off without a shop vac! We do not wear shoes inside and were disgusted by the bottoms of our feet. Floor was sticky. We had to wash our feet before getting in bed each night. Beds are comfortable! Slept well until the upstairs occupanct(s) would decide to walk through their home. You can hear everything going on above you and the traffic was loud at times. The coffee bar was the best part! The kitchen itself is not functional for cooking so don’t plan on that. The location was walkable to town. The next door house is abandoned. House could use some exterior work. Not the best aesthetics. It’s a typical place for the location. Next time we visit the area we will stay somewhere else.

    Communication with host was great from booking to checkout. The place was very clean and nicely appointed. The mattresses on the beds are fantastic. I asked the host the manufacturer because I may buy for myself. Local restaurants were great and it’s a short easy drive to Kennebunkport. Also there is a super market with a full wine, beer and liquor selection within walking distance. Great stay!!

    We had a great time. The house is exactly what the pictures show. It was a quiet location but close to everything. We would definitely stay here again. Nick and Kayla checked in to make sure everything was to our liking. They responded back quickly if you had any questions.

    Kayla and Nick were wonderful hosts! If we had a question, they promptly responded and made sure we had everything we’d need. We traveled with a one year old and they provided a Pack n Play, high chair, booster seat, and toys. The space is exactly as pictured. Very cozy and private. And the location is great! A quick drive to Kennebunkport, Old Orchard Beach, and Portland. We’d gladly stay there again!
