Margo’s space is lovely— both rustic and eclectic in style, but with a comfortable, homey feel to it. My friend and I spent four days in the Portland area, and we wanted to get a reasonable price on a place to stay while also avoiding the typical, impersonal hotel atmosphere we might encounter as tourists... The Artisan Sanctuary proved to be a great fit for us in those respects. Margo herself is very down-to-earth and quick to communicate, and we were impressed by the many thoughtful touches she added to make our stay more comfortable (e.g., treats in the fridge, toiletries and first aid in the bathroom, clean linens, extra blankets, etc.). She anticipated so many of our needs and made the process of checking in and out as easy as could be. The location is excellent, too; my friend and I felt safe and enjoyed being able to walk to the many restaurants and bars nearby. Driving into downtown, too, was only a short 15-18 minute journey, and the Uber drivers we encountered never once had any trouble navigating to or from the area.
The Artisan Sanctuary is a cool and affordable space for anyone looking to explore the beauty of Portland!
