My husband and I loved this place. We're walkers and it was the perfect location for us between Washington Park and Downtown, Powell's is 0.5 mile away. The MAX was also nearby, which was handy for coming in from the airport. Dyrall was an excellent host, he gave clear instructions, and was responsive when we had an issue with the wi-fi. The memory foam mattress was super comfy, and we slept well, no aches or stiffness. There was noise from the MAX station, but we're not easily disturbed by street noise and it didn't interfere with our sleeping. The vibe is relaxed and there are amazing vintage details like an antique phone and turning latches on the cabinets that must be original to the building. The kitchen was well equipped, and the mini Keurig was much appreciated. There were tents around the 405 overpass, a couple blocks east, but not more so than we saw everywhere else in Portland. Our friends who live there said the city has started to pick up momentum again with services and it's been getting better. Would highly recommend this apartment.
