The cottage is attractive, well-designed, and just two blocks away from the restaurants and shops of Mississippi Avenue. I was visiting my daughter, who's attending grad school in Portland, and the kitchen was so well equipped that we chose to make several meals there so we could relax and visit. New Seasons is nearby, so it was very easy to buy small quantities for meals. Because the cottage, at the back of the owners' fenced-in lot, is in a quiet neighborhood, I felt completely safe staying there alone. Because of the location, I was only a walk or short Lyft ride away from downtown Portland, so no need for a rental car. I would definitely stay here again.
