Arlene's place is tucked in a safe, cute residential neighborhood with plenty of on-street parking. The apartment itself has been remodeled and amenities are upscale - including heated flooring in the bathroom, a huge, new spa-tub, stainless steel appliances and a cofy queen bed. The garden area is lush and inviting and we wished our weekend wasn't a rainy one as we would have loved to hang out and use the BBQ. Next time! Arlene's responsiveness and communication grade is A+. When we visit Portland in the future, we will definitely want to stay here again.
