Such a lovely place to spend our long weekend! A spacious, separate apartment above a garage (that is also offered for the guest's use) that has large windows overlooking the Mt Tabor neighborhood. Walkable to many restaurants, pubs, coffee shops, a weekend farmers market, and beautiful Mt Tabor park. Also a very short walk to the 20 bus, which is a direct line to downtown, the Saturday Market, and all the things old Portland has to offer.
Gene and Heidi gave us our complete privacy, but are warm, welcoming, and excellent hosts. There were yummy little treats left in the place for us upon arrival, and a helpful cache of maps and local area tips for us to use during our stay. They even let us use fresh herbs from their organic raised bed garden in the back yard! The available washer and dryer were a nice bonus, too, as we'd just gotten in from a tent camping trip prior to our Portland arrival, and the ability to freshly clean our clothes was very appreciated!
Overall, I haven't had a better experience as a guest at even high-end hotels. These two hosts really care that you enjoy your stay in their place, and give you the space that you desire in order to do that!
