My wife and I stayed in Janie's apartment for the month of August and it was fantastic. We've lived in a few places in Portland and this neighborhood was my favorite yet. You're a short and pretty walk away from the heart of Mississippi (lots of great bars and restaurants and a great comic book store) and two blocks away from tons of good food on Vancouver and Williams. The neighborhood is lovely and Janie was such a wonderful host.

The apartment itself was perfect for the two of us. Very spacious with a great kitchen. Despite it being in a basement there's plenty of light and if you need more, there's a nice little patio for you right outside your door. We loved grilling out while we were there.

If you're looking for a place to stay in Portland, you should definitely look here. It's fantastic.
