We were stopping over for a night after traveling from coast and heading to Spokane. Lisa's basement space had everything we needed, especially the most comfortable foam mattress. You can cook meals here - she even has soups and Ramen readily available; we opted to walk up the street to Green Zebra grocer and pick up pre-made salads. There were restaurants up that way as well. This was a very clean, quiet place and I'd stay here in a heartbeat in ever in Portland again.
