Yes, yes, yes! Kristen and Colin's little cottage was just what the doctor ordered! Nice and clean, all the right things in all the right places, and a warm, comfortable bed. Wish we could have stayed longer. I liked the location even though it's not in the epicenter of a hopping neighborhood, it's close enough to plenty of places in any direction. Downtown was about ten minutes away, Hawthorne district about five minutes, Division Street just up the road, the Aladdin Theatre just down the road, a food co-op right next door that was even open on New Years Day, plenty of good restaurants not too far away... we felt right at home, especially when their sweet little cat came over to visit with us for a bit. It was too cold out to try out the backyard fire pit unfortunately (maybe next time). The only thing that took any getting used to was the new-fangled smart tv which pretty much rocked after we got logged on to Netflix. The Ducks were playing the Rose Bowl game so we went a few blocks to the Twilight Cafe and ate a yummy lunch and watched the game there. All in all, I wouldn't hesitate a second to go back!

Thank you Kristen!
