Martin was an excellent host - messages enquiring about the house were answered in minutes every time, and nothing was too much trouble ( even having a parcel shipped to the house when I was in the USA).

The actual place is really lovely - it's an amazing conversion offering everything you need in a tiny space. Very cosy but really excellent. We drove to Portland and there's no problems with parking around the block.

The area is also really fantastic - Hawethorne Blvd has soooo many cool bars, restaurants, shops, comedy places etc etc to either spend your money or just people watch. If you're feeling energetic, it's about an hours walk into downtown Portland, and we did that a few times - it's great to see the different sights on the way into the town.

I'd definitely really recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing place to stay from a few days to a week.

Good job Martin - really loved it.
