Laura and Brian's place was so stylish and had great personal Portland touches. We loved the colors and decor! Parking outside was easy to find. Their house is a quick 10 minute drive to downtown, and there are lots of cute shops and restaurants nearby - don't miss Por Que No, a quick 10 minute walk away. We loved how easy the check in process was- an efficient keypad on the door to the basement studio. They left us a cute note and dark chocolate to welcome us. They provided delicious Stumptown coffee, but I went ahead and bought a little creamer and left it in the fridge. Had free wifi and cable tv. Awesome books and a record player to enjoy. Only downsides- we found a lot of hair in the shower, the temperature was difficult to control (it got super warm in the middle of the night and especially in the bathroom), and the bed wasn't the comfiest. But all in all, I loved staying here and the pros outweighed the cons.
