I consider this the perfect place to use as a base to explore Portland and the fantastic Kerns neighborhood. This loft, accessed through a little garden and a private entrance, is truly lovely, with a light-filled common space that is beautifully furnished and well-appointed. We had a gracious amount of space which included a large and well-equipped kitchen and a wonderful reading space with good indirect light. Mary Beth has created an atmosphere of peace and serenity which we thoroughly enjoyed.

Mary Beth is a good communicator, replying promptly to questions and giving detailed instructions for arrival. Her profile of the loft is accurate and described well. And we appreciated her suggestions for dinner, including Seasons and Regions (seafood). Mary Beth also has the good fortune to live just a few blocks from City State, a place where I would eat breakfast 5 days a week, if I lived in Portland!! Many thanks to Mary Beth for a great stay!
