Mike's house is a stylish and comfortable place to stay in Portland. The location, in a pleasant and leafy residential neighborhood, is very convenient to all OHSU facilities, the south waterfront development, and downtown. Mike provides a comprehensive printed guide to all local services and was very helpful with directions and advice for getting where I wanted to go. Within a 10- to 15-minute walk are many cafes and restaurants, as well as stops for the tram and buses.
The room itself is cozy with a comfortable queen size bed, bedside lamps, and a white noise machine. The wifi is fast and reliable. Although the house faces a busy road, the room is at the back of the house and I was not disturbed by traffic noise. A full bathroom and a separate half bath are immediately adjacent to the room. The room has a secure lock, and a key is provided. Guests have access to the kitchen and living and dining rooms and an attractive deck area behind the house. I highly recommend Mike's house for anyone looking for an economical option in central Portland.
