Pro: convenient transportation to downtown PDX; walking distance to pleasant park; not far from downtown Kenton’s shops and restaurants, as well as an outstanding Peruvian restaurant; well-equipped pantry; next door neighbor in duplex is quiet.
Con: “Cleaning crew” ineffective; We booked a long stay (visiting family), so could not ignore the dust etc.; unit fronts on street with serious traffic, so not possible to sleep with open windows and the window ac unit cools the kitchen, but not the bedroom. It can get hot in Portland in the summer; stairs to basement washer/dryer could be a problem for seniors.
