Barbara's garden apartment was extremely neat, tidy, cozy, and adorable. Me and a few friends stayed 3 nights here and didn't want to leave! On the second level, it sort of felt like waking up in a treehouse which was awesome. The location is great and overall had a wonderful first time experience in Portland. Only minor problems we had were regarding the spiral staircase in the apt...it is very slippery so take it slow going down!
