This apartment is really a gem. Fantastic location and you can tell that Mark and his wife put a lot of love into this flat. The appliances are great and usually we have a hard time finding decent pots/pans and other utensils when we cook - not here! The apartment is spacious and while we didn't use the top (attic) room to sleep in, it worked well as a playroom for our three year old son at times. This apartment is very kid/family friendly and owner even providesgates if you have a newly walking toddler to save from falling down the stairs. There were some kid toys and books too!
We had the lovely opportunity to meet Mark and chat with him for a bit - really great guy all around - easy and friendly.

Highly recommend this place - I almost don't want to as we would like to keep it for ourselves next time we visit! :)
Thanks Mark for offering such a great apartment in PDX! See you next time!
