A sanctuary is indeed what this place turned out to be! I so loved my stay and will surely return. Margo is a perfect host- I can tell she is an incredible individual by how kind, helpful, clean, and hospitable she is. Coffee and breakfast supplies were waiting, as well as all kitchen necessities, which was invaluable help. The apartment is clean, quiet, and peaceful. And the location is great to boot- it is a quiet neighborhood that is within walking distance to many many good eats and bus stops. I was in Portland for an Xtend Barre training and was able to get all over the city by bus alone, (I highly recommend the trimet app). Bring a good raincoat and wellies and come stay here! You won't be disappointed.
