Arlene made us feel very welcome! The room was spotless and the sheets and towels smelled great. The bed was comfy and the room was very spacious. The garden was a wonderful place to relax! We sat out there for breakfast and every evening. Arlene communicated with us whenever we needed her tips for the area. It is just a short drive to downtown Portland. We loved going to nearby Stark Street as there are many great places to eat, we highly recommend The Observatory for fresh fish and delicious salads. I would highly recommend Arlene's place! Arlene we hope to see you again one day.
