We were so fortunate to be able to stay in this beautiful new home just 20 blocks away from ours, after we lost power & internet in a winter storm! I especially appreciated the owner allowing us to bring our dog, or we wouldn't have been able to stay. The refrigerator was big enough to accommodate all of the fresh and frozen foods we needed to rescue from spoiling in our own two refrigerator/freezers.
The separate apartment where we stayed is modern, spacious and attractively decorated. I would call the furnishings & supplies "minimalist", which I prefer over "cottage" Airbnbs that can be cluttered. There's plenty of space to move around and lots of empty closets and cabinets to store our belongings. The shower head and unique bathroom faucet have a terrific flow, and the available soap and shampoo are a nice touch. The owner is on-site to offer assistance, and to manage other tenants. The result was a quiet, restful stay. This neighborhood house has easy access to major thoroughfares, yet was surprisingly free of traffic noises. The open kitchen has plenty of dishes and cookware, and a cute dishwasher. Instead of a traditional oven, there's an on-counter pizza oven, that also cooks frozen snacks well. Between this small oven and the microwave, we were able to prepare all of our meals. I fully utilized the desk in one bedroom, where I was able to set up my computer and continue to work remotely for my job. It was a real lifesaver that my employer sure appreciated! This stay wasn't for "travel" so it's unlikely we will stay again, but I would return in a heartbeat if we had another home emergency. I highly recommend it for visitors to Portland. You will love it!
