You can never really be sure when you look at photos of a place to what it's truly like in real life, but Lisa and Stew's guest house is the real thing! My husband and I were looking for a quick, chill weekend in Portland with our 2 month old daugther- we wanted to be in a clean, easy home with access to coffee/food we could walk to- and also a quiet, friendly neighborhood we could walk around in with the baby. Asking too much??? Well, we found it all in this place! First of all, this guest house is extremely clean, modern, decorated with taste, and feels brand new. It's an efficient space and provides ample amount of space for a small family. The neighborhood is quiet and has a nice path to walk/run. It is close enough to walk to get coffee, a bite, groceries, etc. Also, we weren't worried about being close to everything because we knew we would end up driving to other areas of Portland that we wanted to shop or eat at- so it wasn't a big deal. Stew and Lisa are excellent and friendly hosts- super quick to respond always and they have created an amazing space for guests to feel comfortable in.
