Where to begin? The place is even more inviting than it looks in the pictures. It’s very private, beautifully furnished, bright, cozy and clean. The host was extremely friendly and generous as well as prompt in responding to my inquiries. The neighborhood is quiet and quaint yet only steps away from two livelier streets with many good restaurants and stores. In spite of the weather, we spent 6 enjoyable days in Portland. Two thumbs up all around.
