Alexandra's place looks just as good in life as in the photos. Overall, we thought this was an incredibly good deal compared to other options in Portland. It even came with a parking space, which allowed us to rent a car for 2 days and travel out of the area for amazing hikes.
Bed was comfortable and the unit was well stocked with everything you might need.
I am quite bad at remembering small steps and tripped several times moving between the bedroom and living area (one small step, maybe 3 inches), but that's me. My girlfriend had zero problems.
We decided to uber/lyft from the place mostly, to avoid walking around Union Station. It feels relatively safe, but several areas had a large homeless population (mostly calm people) with only a few making us uncomfortable (raving/obviously on drugs, fights).
If we wished to stay on this side of the river, we would definitely choose this spot again.
