Our stay at ArtfulLife II was great! The location is very central with the streetcar to downtown is just a 2 blocks walk, and lots of restaurants and boutique shopping on 23rd ave. There is no onsite parking but you can park on the street for free with no time limit restrictions.

We stayed in the northwest main floor suite beside the front entrance of the multiple suite property. Noise from other rental suites was not an issue for us. The place was well kept and very clean and comfortable with all the amenities one needs including internet and a fully equipped kitchen. The furnishings are eclectic with a modern flare and the art throughout the apartment is different, but to each there own.

We really appreciated the small details including a table side fan for air movement on those hot summer nights and providing enough coins for your first load of laundry. The only really issue I had with the space was the washroom. The toilet is squished into a corner and does not allow a 6' tall person to sit straight on in. Instead you need to turn your body 45 degrees, which is slightly awkward. Also the shower head is located at the 5' height which makes it difficult to shower for a typically tall person. Aside from those functional discrepancies the washroom was clean and spacious with plenty of mirror space and a large sink.

Check in and check out were seamless with the key located in a easily accessible lock box. Fred was diligent and checked-in on us with an unobtrusive text to make sure everything was OK, which was nice of him.

All in all a very pleasant stay in a very nice part of Portland. We would be happy to stay again.
