This was a good stay in a part of town that is quieter and more peaceful than other areas of Portland. The houses here are more spread out, if you're the type to feel claustrophobic in the city this is a great option as it is still close to downtown. We had our bikes with us and it was a fun and easy 1 hour ride to the Japanese Garden, for example. Depending on where you want to go it might just be 30 minutes. The space itself is really nice! Great shower with strong pressure, a comfortable bed, and a well-stocked kitchen with all the appliances you'd ever need. It's a great space for 2 people. We enjoyed being high up over the garage and had the windows open to let the breeze in, very peaceful. These guys have 2 adorable dogs, hope you get a chance to meet them. We had a great time!
