If I could give 6 out of 5 stars I would! What an absolute GEM! Of all my stays in Portland this has been my favourite.
Location: It's half a block off Hawthorne right in the middle of the shops & restaurant stretch but is so quiet and serene. I could get to everywhere I wanted on transit and there was ample parking out front so I could leave my car.
The suite: it is absolutely fun, so many cool decor touches! I felt instantly at home with the retro vibes and luxe furniture. Quite spacious, with a separate bedroom, big living room, eating table for 4, reading spot, kids' nook under the steps, a kitchen with washer/dryer and a cute bathroom. Everything I could have wanted was provided.
Sleep: I had suuuuch a good sleep here. The sheets and pillows were soft, the bed was supportive and I slept like a lil baby (the kind that actually sleeps). It was hard to drag myself out of bed in the morning, and honestly I let myself sleep in a couple times because I just felt so relaxed.
Kitchen: Very well stocked with everything you'd need. Such a bonus that there is a w/d to use.
Bathroom: very clean, great towels. The shower head is a bit low so tall folks might feel a wee bit hunched, it's just like most European and Asian showers. I loved the provided shampoo/conditioner/body wash, it smelled so good.
Safety: Well lit outside so I felt safe coming home late at night. Security locks on all the windows made me feel safe.
Hosts: Chrystal was such a perfect host. She was super speedy to help me whenever I messaged asking for advice on places to go, and communicating was a breeze. What a sweetheart, I felt like I was staying with friends.
Overall: I genuinely fell in love with this space. It's so fun, super duper clean, good value and I will most certainly be back!
