A trip to Portland in January may not be the warmest time to go, but we still had a wonderful visit anyways. Tyra's loft was cozy and private, with a killer view, one that could not easily be matched. Not only did we have a great view from the third floor, it's also real close to the city. We didn't use public transit for this trip but it would have been a breeze from this location. We did rent a car for the week, which took us to the coast and seattle, as well as around the city. The only issue we ran into with parking was when there was a basketball game the streets filled up, not surprising for walking distance to the Moda Center from the loft. This was a minor issue as the games were done in two hours and parking was open again quickly. Tyra was kind and recommended a few places as well to help introduce us to the area. We can't wait to come back! Enjoy!
