We were in Portland for a short hiking trip, and Mike was a fantastic host. Check-in was super smooth, and the apartment is in a really fantastic location and close to a ton of restaurants including some food trucks. The apartment itself was very clean, modern, and had all of the amenities that were perfect for a short stay.
The only thing I think you should know before you book is that there is no air-conditioning in the bedrooms. While there is an AC unit in the main living space, it didn’t quite reach the bedrooms. If you can bring a fan, I would highly recommend it. This shouldn’t be a problem during the winter months, but as we were there at the end of June, it was pretty hot at night.
All-in-all, I would highly recommend you stay at Mike’s place. It’s a fantastic private apartment in downtown Portland, and really great value for your money.
