We loved staying in Penelope's Abode! It is super charming and perfectly cozy and even more beautiful than in pictures. Penelope is a warm and gracious host who responds quickly to any questions you might have. My husband, daughter and I quickly made ourselves at home and wish we could've stayed longer. We loved the neighborhood- it was an easy walk to great food and coffee shops. There is even a bike rental place down the street where we rented bikes and cruised the neighborhood. This place will definitely be our home base next time we're in Portland!
