We were fortunate enough to find Kathleen's place on our last minute trip up to Portland. How fortunate for us! Kathleen was accessible and charming , and the little apartment, super clean, well designed, and very comfortable. Her place is outside the city proper, but we had a car and it took us hardly any time to get downtown and to other neighborhoods. If we come back to Portland, we def hope to stay at Kathleen's place again. Much more homey and useful than a hotel room -- and certainly a better $ deal!
