Patti's apartment is located in the center of Portland, right across from the public library, a few blocks from Pioneer Square and a short walk to Powell's Books. The apartment is located inside a stately victorian that was built around 1888. It is a real classic. It has a kitchenette with a microwave, refrigerator, toaster and coffee maker. The apartment is very clean, secure and a pleasant place to pass some time. Patti has a lot of nice touches. For example, there was a bottle of Willamette Valley Pinot Noir waiting for me when I arrived. Patti is attentive and responsive to questions. If you need food, there is a Target two blocks away that has a grocery section that is more than adequate. If you require a larger selection, there is also a Fred Myer about 3/4 of a mile away that is a fairly easy walk. Needless to say, there quite a few restaurants in the area, among them an Indian restaurant (India House) that has excellent meals and service. I highly recommend Patti's rental.
