The Secret Garden is a treasure!! Inside and out the place was charming, beautiful and filled with thoughtful details (yay for essential oil diffusers, a live orchid and easy access Netflix). We were blown away by how nicely decorated, spacious (two floors and high ceilings) and uber-clean the place was. Comfy beds with fresh linens that looked brand new, fluffy towels and a full-size kitchen made this out best Airbnb experience yet. In addition the location is great: tucked away in the back of a lush garden on a quiet street, it was also a short walk into Multnomah Village. We enjoyed the food trucks, espresso at the Village Cup, a straight shave at the barber and a delicious meal at Tastebud. A laundromat and grocery store were close, too. It was an idyllic refuge for exploring Portland!
We have no suggestions or criticisms at all. Tracey was a great host -- a notebook full of local suggestions and super-fast on responding. We highly recommend a stay here!
