My boyfriend and I came to Portland for the first time and stayed here for two nights. The space was beautiful, cozy, and perfectly clean - just as pictured! The bed was very comfy, the kitchenette was stocked with the necessities, and the bathroom had lovely soaps, lotions, and even bubble bath (the tub is awesome.) Mary left great magazines and brochures about the best food to eat and things to do while in Portland that were very helpful. She was very communicative and responsive via text regarding any questions we had. We, too, were lucky enough to meet her and she was lovely (: The neighborhood was a great mix of quiet neighborhood and happening city. We found really awesome places to eat that were within a short walking distance or cheap Uber ride. Laurelhurst was a great central location to get to busier, bustling parts of Portland. Laurelhurst park - which was surprisingly huge - was very nearby and was a great place to relax outside. We really couldn't have asked for a better place to be hosted during our short stay; it was a beautiful introduction to Portland. We would (and hopefully will) absolutely come back to stay again!
