This is the perfect neighborhood to stay in if you want easy access to downtown and a quiet place to go home to. Such a great value! We brought our 11 month old and were pleasantly surprised to find a lot of baby toys for her to play with! It was perfect for us because we were able to put her to sleep in the bedroom and be close enough in the living room to hang out/hear when she woke up. The description of the place accurately explains the noise you hear from above so we came prepared with a noise machine for the baby. But it wasn’t even bad and could have slept just fine with out it. We were more worried about the family upstairs hearing our baby cry! Highly recommend this place if traveling to Portland with kids!
