LOCATION! What a perfect place to stay when visiting Portland. In the heart of Alberta Arts District and very convenient for all things. Great bars, coffee, restaurants, shopping. Great place to stay if you don't have a car. I felt very safe and comfortable in the area and loved walking around town.
Bye and Bye is a fun bar across the street and about two blocks away is a great coffee shop called Case Study. Directly next to that is a popular brunch spot called Tin Shed. HIGHLY recommend, but be aware that there is a long wait time.
The studio itself is adorable. I really appreciate the privacy this space offered. Tucked in the back of the house, no noise, gorgeous surroundings. The bed was comfortable and staying in a new place as a single woman, I felt very safe and comfortable being there alone. The shower was very cool and both the bathroom and main room had heaters which helped during this winter season. The studio was extremely clean and the perfect amount of space for 1-2 people. Their home was a great place to come back and relax at after a long day.
Although, I never got to meet Tien or Jacob, they both were very quick with their responses and extremely helpful with all check-in/out details of the home and great communicators in general. They made this process of booking their home very easy, simple, and stress free.
I will definitely be back to stay at their studio the next time I visit Portland, and I highly recommend everyone do the same!
