Great place! I stayed here with my 4-year-old and the park across the street was a great hit. We walked to Alberta St and enjoyed the other areas, like Mississippi St and the Pearl District. We swam at the Rose Garden Park, not too far away. It was HOT out but we still enjoyed the cool basement apartment. I would suggest the addition of a small fan, but that is a minor detail. The place was clean, tidy and had all the things we needed for the 4 days we were in Portland visiting family. The fridge was a nice size and the bathroom too. Thanks for having us!
