This is a great little cottage, tucked away behind a house on a quiet street. The place is very peaceful and feels fairly spacious, with a good size living room-kitchen area. The bed is super-comfortable and the shower works well. The kitchen is well-stocked and has a full-size fridge, so it would be easy to cook there. There was coffee, filters, and a good coffee maker already there, so we didn't have to go out an find any of that stuff, which was great since we got in late. There was also a random array of condiments and left-over food items in the fridge left from prior guests (though nothing gross).
We liked the fact that the door has a code instead of a key. That meant that we didn't have to deal with getting and returning a key, but it also meant that we never actually met our host. The cottage had a map of Portland on the wall, and several good guidebooks, which were very helpful. There was also a big pile of random flyers for local restaurants and attractions, probably left by prior guests.
The neighborhood isn't fancy or central, but it's actually a good base for exploring Portland. It's just a few blocks from the streetcar line, and there are several restaurants within walking distance, including a Tapas place that is one of the hottest places in Portland (worth a splurge if you can get in).
The cottage would be a bit crowded with more than two people, mostly because there aren't shelves, drawers, or good closet space to stash things, so we used the couch for our stuff since we weren't sleeping on it. We would stay here again!
