Bob and Karen's little apartment is a gem: So Portland! So clever, with art and humor. It's in a historic residential district full of beautiful homes (and a very pleasant place to walk). But it's also adjacent to busy Hawthorne Street, filled with a plethora of great shops, fun restaurants, a beautiful movie theater and great people-watching. We rented the apartment for some out-of-town visitors (we live in PDX) and I would do that again. Karen was prompt and friendly in her communication. I highly recommend their place.
