It is north of the downtown area of Portland, but everything is accessible by car. Really wonderful space, big, lots of light and kitchen to cook in. The bathroom is beautiful and the bed is very comfy. Check-in is easy, you get your own personalized code just for your stay. It is in the basement though so you may hear some noises from upstairs, so be aware. Overall a wonderful spot, very private, and very attentive hosts who are quick to respond if you need anything.
