We loved our stay at "creative charmer in trendy NE hood Portland". The description is accurate including the fresh flowers (in our case white chrysanthemums with a few stalks of purple butterfly weed), and the neighborhood is lovely and "trendy". The hosts had provided thoughtful breakfast essentials like coffee, cereal, fresh half 'n half and filtered water in the fridge, some cookies and a bar of chocolate. There were also several other items like butter and Earth Balance in the fridge. The kitchenette is well stocked with handsome dishes, pots 'n pans, flatware etc., a full gas stove with water kettle on top. Everything was immaculately clean and inviting! That went also for the shower and bathroom facility. There is ample closet space also providing an ironing board, oscillating fan, hair dryer, clothes hangers etc. We met the whole family just enough to get acquainted and otherwise enjoyed our independence and privacy! A folder with details about the place and the city was obviously placed on the counter and provided all the information we needed. There is original art work throughout the apartment. The guest can also find plenty of interesting literature on art on the shelves. I liked all the little "artsy" touches, small tasteful details that made you feel welcome. The small windows were enhanced by decorative home sewn curtains for a perfect fit and with attractive fabric. Everything was super clean and inviting. The apartment has a spacious feel to it, and despite the low level, there's plenty of light. Very nice!
