Laura and Brian's place is very comfortable, warm and inviting. It has a comfortable bed, comfortable living area. The location is just blocks from a grocery store and the best book store in town (Powel's). We didn't need to drive. And it's a great walk to one of the best parks in town - made for a fabulous morning exercise to walk up to Mt Tabor Park. Laura and Brian made it really easy for self check in. They had fresh cookies waiting for us when we arrived! We love staying here when we come to Portland.
