We LOVED our stay at the Hafner Haus. Sharon is a kind host. I was very unclear about when we would check in and actually ended up getting to the house earlier than expected. The house was not completely cleaned yet but Sharon let us in and worked around us. The house is amazing. The location is 3 blocks from Portland State University and about 12 blocks from all the boutiques and restaurants downtown. All if walkable. We had a car but really didn't need it. My husband and I had 6 kids staying at the house with us but even with that large of a group we didn't feel crowded. The house has one bathroom with a bath/shower and one toilet in the basement. But even that didn't bother anyone. For Thanksgiving dinner we ended up having 13 people for dinner. The dining room is big enough so that we all sat at the table together. We had ordered the food from Whole Foods (5 blocks away) so it was pretty much all cooked and just needed to be heated up. The kitchen is fine but I wouldn't suggest cooking a huge meal like that from scratch. The really awesome looking stove isn't really made to cook for 13. We would absolutely consider staying at the Hafner Haus again when we come back to Portland. Thanks Sharon!
