Portoro reviews in Hartford, Vermont

“Pros- beautiful surroundings, good location, adequate space, loved the gas logs. Plenty of towels and basic toiletries provided. Cons- tons of spiders webs on walls, doors ceilings, bottom of furniture with accompanying spiders in corners etc.. and bugs on walls daily. Absolutely no place to hang or store clothes, plan to live out of your suitcase. Two large rugs in living space are major trip hazards edges curled all around etc.. very poorly designed shower( can’t turn it on without getting hit with cold water also you necessarily must step out of the shower into a massive puddle of water soaked rug). I asked two days ahead the type of coffee maker that was available and they gave wrong information. Overall disappointed given the price point.”

“I’ve really struggled with how to write this review, because it is a beautiful property and a lovely historic home. But I want to be honest about the fact that the house was really dirty, dusty and musty. My friend has a mild dust mite allergy, and really struggled and eventually just couldn’t sit on any upholstered furniture or near throw pillows/ blankets. I understand that it’s an older waterfront property so we did not expect it to be spotless or without signs of wear and tear, but at this price point we did expect it to be clean and ready for use.”

“Beautiful location, dated but comfortable condo. Treehouse vibe. Advertised sauna and downstairs thermostats dysfunctional, 2 of 3 burned out kitchen lighting, no amenities, soap, shampoo. Quick text response for concerns but no action from mgt”

“Love the place - please note that they give only a starter kit with a roll of paper towel, toilet paper, etc. if you stay longer, you need to get your own.”

“Upon arriving at our rental it was dark and the entrance to the barn area was not lit at all. They said look for the barn with Liv laugh and love which you could not even see in the dark. Once we got inside we quickly realize the heat was not working. We notified them and found out the batteries in the remote were not only dead but the remote itself was broken altogether. The technician came out the next day took the remote and said she'd be back in touch but we never saw her for the remainder of our stay so we went without our fireplace throughout our stay. They never got back with us nor informed us if the fire would be working. The kitchen was ill equipped with not near enough cooking needs no salt and pepper no colander and limited pots and pans. we had plenty of towels, but a lot of spiderwebs, the floors were not clean. Outdoors there was a fire pit overgrown by weeds that was unusable next to a debree pile of garbage. Would not recommend.”
