We loved this spacious, serene apartment, with everything we needed at our fingertips, and air-conditioning that kept us comfortable on some very hot days! The apartment feels totally private, and because it’s set back from the street, it’s quiet, as well. Having two folding luggage racks made unpacking into the generous storage provided quick and easy, and having a washer and dryer right in the unit was very convenient. The kitchen area is well-planned and well-equipped, and we enjoyed several meals at the table seen in the photos. We also appreciated having the love seat and the comfortable single chair as alternate places to sit. The bed was very comfortable and the linens were simple and lovely — no froufrou!

We enjoyed brief, enjoyable chats with Cara and Roger several times as we were going out or coming back, and appreciated their quick responses to a few questions we asked by text during our stay. They are excellent hosts!

Two major bus lines are nearby, making it easy to get around, and there are loads of interesting eateries in the area, as well as a pleasant grocery store. This is definitely our first choice for a place to stay in Portland, and we’ll be back!
