Mike communicated up front with easy instructions to check in and check out. I was able to find street parking within 1 block of the apartment every time. Often there was parking right in front. The apartment has new furniture and appliances, is very clean and decorated with some art and warm orange lights. The space is compact but definitely comfortable for 2 guests. I spent most of my time outside enjoying Portland anyway, which is easy to do since this spot has plenty of cafes, restaurants, and buses to downtown a short walk away. Great place to stay!
