Really lovely little nook for exploring Portland. The place was spotlessly clean (thanks in part to the no-shoes-indoors policy), with plush carpet and wide open space. Nicely appointed with an eclectic library of books, a kettle and coffee maker, and most importantly, loaner umbrellas! This was a very nice location for exploring the Goose Hollow neighborhood and we were even able to walk to the International Rose Test Garden and other beautiful spaces in Washington Park. Shower was great--good water pressure and the water warmed up instantly. Nicki and Tamar were very responsive, with clear instructions on how to check in, and made it easy for us to park our rented car in the neighborhood. The one thing to know is that the location overlooking the freeway will get road noise--it's unavoidable. Light sleepers may want to take advantage of the ear plugs provided! It did not keep me up, but may be a lot for more sensitive sleepers.
