Had a wonderful stay here. The apartment is very spacious and bright, with an extremely comfortable bed and a beautiful bathroom. The location is perfect for walking to nearby restaurants, cafes, and shops. There were a number of useful resources in the room (local sites, things to do in Portland, etc.) and we really liked the view of the garden area on the first floor. We met one of the owners on the first day and he was very polite. The welcome/check-list was also very helpful, providing us with info about where to find things in the apartment (refrigerator, trash, recycling) and what not. It was also very close to major bus lines to go downtown, which was great for us. We loved that we had access to a microwave, a fridge, a corkscrew and wine glasses (for tasting local wine). We truly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to stay where people really live and experience Portland in laidback fashion. It is still very accessible to many of the more touristy activities."
