I had a fabulous stay at Darise's place in Portland. The apartment was spotless, had everything I needed and more. It truly felt like a sanctuary away from home. Other reviews mentioned the windows on the front door, but when I arrived, these were frosted and I had zero concerns about privacy. Yes, you can hear some traffic from Broadway, but it was quite light and had a sleep inducing white sound effect for me! The apartment is right around the corner from shops and restaurants and an easy walk to Safeway. I highly recommend this apartment and Darise who is a kind and very responsive host.
