Check in was a breeze (you'll receive a numerical code for the door) and there are no keys to be exchanged so you don't have to worry about losing them. Immediately after I booked the place, Peter & Kate sent me an awesome guide with suggestions on restaurants and attractions nearby and in Portland so I had an opportunity to look it over before I arrived. They were very quick and responsive to all my questions.
Peter & Kate's place was clean, bright and open. I'm used to staying a bit closer to the city center so if you want quick access to downtown, you'd be better served at this location with a car. The residential area was a nice change of pace for me and the view from the studio felt very cozy and like I was "home." For those who might have mobility concerns (or heavy luggage), this studio is located on the upper floor of a residential home so there are a flight of stairs, with a landing, leading to the entrance. The decor was minimalist, stylish and I loved the personal touch of a complimentary beverage waiting for me and a cute splash of greenery in the shower. The bathroom is small (one person capacity) with a narrow entrance, so again, if you have mobility issues, something to consider. The heated bathroom floor was my favorite feature! Like many other reviews mentioned, the place was spotless, felt new and ultimately chic. Would definitely return here for some time away from home to unwind and enjoy Portland!
