Susanne´s place has everything you need for a medium-sized group to be super-comfortable - an ample, comfortable lounge room, four cosy bedrooms, luxurious bedding, plenty of clean towels, and a spacious kitchen where several people can move around comfortably. Washer and dryer, with laundry soap supplied, iron and ironing table, blow-dryer in both bathrooms. The hosts were exceptional - friendly and flexible, and went out of their way to make everything work for us, to the point of personally delivering packages that came to us during our stay. The location is excellent, literally across the road from a light-rail stop which is exactly 20 mins from the Convention Centre. Plenty of little interesting places to eat around the block and walking distance from excellent restaurants and Safeway (we mostly made our own breakfasts and lunches). I can whole-heartedly recommend the Downtowner and would stay there again if we were in Portland.
