Judy's place had everything we needed. It was cozy and we felt very safe. The bus stop was right outside the door which made getting around easy. Several blocks away were restaurants, bars, convenient stores and a market. We were also in walking distance to St John's Bridge and some parks. My son and I were in Portland for a college visit. Judy gave us tons of suggestions of things to do. We strongly recommend eating at the Portland City Grill and making a trip to the Grotto. Two things we really enjoyed. Judy was a great host!
