YES!--the beautiful photos of this apartment are true. This place is spotlessly clean and lovely. My husband and I were pleased to find it scent-free (no cover up scent; no mildew scent).

Aysha has created a spacious & practical flow in this basement design. I'm an early-riser and could quietly utilize the space beyond the bedroom without disturbing my husband's sleep.

Along with wi-fi service, we had cable TV (and appreciated being able to watch some Sunday NFL on Hi-Def!). We were surprised (and delighted) by the lack of street-noise--this unit is VERY quiet.

Aysha's communications were prompt, welcoming, and helpful.
She is warm, respectful, thoughtful, kind, and an exceptional host. Details include an assortment of current/relevant magazines, a handy washer/dryer with scent-free products, coffee maker, tea pot, microwave, lovely dishes (and extra bowls, pots/pans/utensils), spices, full-size fridge/freezer, several seating options, abundant lighting (basement unit), comfy linens, bedroom dresser and closet, easy-to-adjust window shades...the list goes on.

The bathroom has a unique design with the shower-glass wall to expand the space...great water pressure/drainage. Again: spotlessly clean.

Conveniently located, with a short & lovely walk to Alberta Avenue ~ we found everything we needed at the local co-op at the corner. Parking on Goings Street near 15th Avenue was always easy and close.

We HIGHLY RECOMMEND this apartment with a smile! We're in our 60s and "clean, quiet, unscented, private" (that list seems to go on too)... this place was perfect for us!!

There are a few steep steps to enter (interior entrance), and several steps up from the sidewalk, if you need "level or ramp-style". Aysha lives above this unit and thoughtfully doesn't wear shoes to soften any ceiling noise--this is an older home so there will be some squeaks, but our time here was impressively quiet.

When my husband read the reviews before our trip, he wondered if they were "staged"... We now know they certainly were not as we're writing a glowing review now too.

We are so happy to find "our spot" when we come to Portland to visit family and friends! Thank you so much, Aysha!
