We were very pleased when Jacek accepted our reservation for one night, which allowed us to extend our stay in Portland. The place was clean, quiet, and met our needs. I imagine it would be a great refuge, especially in the summertime, from the heat and the busy neighborhood. The marble flooring gave it an elegant feel. The living room has no exterior windows and feels a bit like a cave. Our family consists of my elderly father, "sandwich generation" me, and my 9-year-old daughter. We put my father in the bedroom and my daughter and I were comfortable enough on the cushions of the L-shaped couch (there were enough sheets and blankets for all of us). The shower was very comfortable and had good water pressure and temperature control. Jacek told me about the three steps leading down to the entrance door to the apartment: my father did all right with these with a hand to hold; however when we parked on a nearby very hilly street, my father felt a little teetery making his way back down the hill. Our communications with the host were clear and positive; we did not get to meet him but felt he would be responsive if any issues had come up.
