Nicole’s artist loft was exceptionally clean, quiet, and charmingly cute! In particular, the bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was top notch. We weren’t planning to use the kitchen significantly during our stay, but for those that are, we found the kitchen area to be surprisingly spacious with ample counter space. The mini fridge provided more space and organization than expected, and while you probably wouldn’t want to try fitting a thanksgiving turkey in the oven, there was plenty to work with if you like to cook while you are on the road.
Portland is not known for its sunshine in the late winter/early spring, but the large east-facing windows and the skylights at loft level allowed for plenty of natural light. It was very easy to regulate temperature with the remote for the heater. The loft area must be accessed by a ladder with railing, so for some, that could prove a challenge, but I loved having a perched reading nook.
We had a great stay, and we would recommend this space for 1-2 travelers who plan to spend most of their time out exploring the city or visiting friends and family, but want an unique, cozy space with an efficient floor plan and some extra comforts of home when it’s time to relax.
