5 star listing and 5 star hosts!
We stayed here for about a 1.5 months and we really enjoyed it. It is a studio, so you need to be ready for having just 1 common space, but this is one of the best layout studios I’ve stayed. It’s not super big but it feel spacious and with different sections to hang out at (bed area, living/tv area and kitchen). You’ll still hear the fridge at night, but that’s normal in all studios.
The space is also decorated nicely and is modern, and it was very clean. It is in a very quiet neighborhood, and its just a couple blocks away from Safeway supermarket and the #7 bus stop, and a 15 min walk to Columbia City Rail Station (up hill). It takes about 30 minutes by public transit to get to downtown.
Mahi and their partner were really great Hosts. They always made sure we were doing ok without being intrusive, offered enough of the basics (dish washer soap, trash bags, etc) for us to get by during all of our stay, and even got us AC installed just before a summer heat wave came in. (They also double checked with us to be sure we were ok with them coming inside to install it, and what time worked best for us.)
I once commented half joking that it would be nice to have a toaster, and lo and behold they got a new toaster for the apartment 2 days later. They are really amazing hosts.
