Cynthia was very accommodating in terms of our arrival time. The living space is as described. The loft space is very unique and the beds were very comfortable. There's also a full kitchen ... but why cook when you are in PDX =) On that note, this is a great neighborhood that is very walkable and also accessible by public transportation to downtown (or pretty reasonably via popular rideshare services). If you're a runner like me, you can actually run and do the Hawthorne-to-Steel loop by the river and back - it gets you 7 miles! There's also a neat coffee shop at a nearby pod.
