I had a really wonderful stay at Elena’s apartment for a friend’s wedding in Portland. The apartment was beautifully decorated, comfortable and a perfect refuge from an unseasonably warm weekend. It is conveniently located across the street from a Whole Foods where you can board a bus that goes directly downtown. It’s about a 15 minute walk from the Alberta arts district which has a bunch of cute shops and restaurants. Elena was very helpful; checking in and out was very easy. As no one else was renting the apartment the day I left, Elena accommodated a late checkout as my flight left later in the day; I explored Portland during the afternoon without having to schlep around my bags. I would definitely stay in her apartment again for future Portland visits!
