We had a great stay at Matthew's place in Portland. It was tidy and nicely decorated, and was a comfortable place to hang out on our own or with family. There is a small patio with a table & 2 chairs. The apartment provided all the basics we needed, including a washer & dryer, cooking oil & spices, a Keurig machine + a variety of pods, and cooking equipment. The location is great - steps away from great restaurants, and near cool shops on Hawthorne. There are parks nearby, and interesting places to walk. We'll be back!
