    Our experience at McKernan Inn was so very pleasant. The room was spacious and clean. The free coffee and tea bar was a wonderful treat. The continental breakfast surpassed my expectations. The staff was efficient and accommodating. I highly recommend!

    Lovely inn. Room was nice, bed was very comfortable. Staff was amazing Bathroom was a bit dirty with pink grime in shower and dust/hair at the base of the toilet. Gorgeous views of sunrise esp of you keep the blinds open. Bfast was great in the morning although I'm surprised Sunday breakfast was just a bagel bar. Homemade croissant and coffee cake the day prior was delicious.

    We could see the ocean from our room. The curtains would not close and the furniture was worn and dated. Carpet was old and had an iron spot where someone dropped the iron on the floor. They did not refill the coffee or water station over the weekend. We asked twice, but no response. We left a day early.

    Beautiful location and views

    It’s a beautiful property with great views. The only problem was not having heat on a cool night, but they provided a space heater the next night.

    Great, quiet place to stay in Portland. The staff were super friendly. The breakfast was nice. The view of the lighthouse was great. Access to walking the beach was easy.
