Paola's place is incredibly comfortable, nicely decorated, in a fantastic, quiet and convenient SE neighborhood, just off Hawthorne, and close to all the great restaurants and places in the SE quadrant of Portland.
This is the basement flat of her own house, and she lives upstairs with her two children. (The noise complaints I read earlier are overblown, yes, she lives upstairs, but it's no different than living in an apartment or flat of a house with an apartment above you, occasional little sounds, walking, but not at all bothersome). She takes wonderful care of her home, has beautiful plantings on all sides, and the house is lovely.
Very comfortable bed and pillows, and really nice bathroom and small kitchen, and an outer living room next to the bedroom, quite a nice little studio+, ideal for a single person or couple.
And Paola herself is a really nice person, very friendly and outgoing, it was a pleasure meeting her. I'd stay here again, for sure!
