Lorie's place is beautiful and so comfortable! They really did a fabulous job renovating it - the finishes are to the highest standard. It's bright, spacious, quiet and well-appointed. We arrived during a terrible heat wave, but because the apartment is at basement level and the stained concrete floors, it was a good 5-10 degrees cooler than the outside temperatures. Beds were super comfortable as well!
Sellwood is a fantastic neighboorhood, with plenty of shops, restaurants, bakeries (including the famous Grand Central Bakery right up the street!) and grocery stores. The Springwater Corridor is a short distance away for a great bike ride/jog - it's one of my favorite starts to the day. We loved Loree's place and would definitely stay again next time we are in Portland.
