My situation was a bit unusual as I was using the time & space to quarantine for COVID-19 reasons after a return from New York before staying with family. It worked out well for my needs though. Loren's place is situated in a quiet part of SE Portland near Reed College & a Trader Joe's. It's a cozy, quiet place to unwind. Under more normal circumstances it would be a perfect place to return to after being out & about exploring... It's perhaps worth noting there isn't much in the way of a kitchen, but Loren pointed that out to me pretty clearly beforehand. Would happily recommend this place to visiting friends and family.
