I LOVE this place! It was spacious and well appointed and very clean. It looks exactly like the photos and is in a really nice area of craftsman houses and walking distance to coffee, bars and restaurants on Hawthorne (or Division). It's a basement flat and has it's own private entry. I came and went as I pleased and never saw anyone until the last day when I had to check out. Dana left me a gift of chocolate (yay!) and stocked the fridge with some yogurt, milk for coffee and some honor system refreshments (pay for what you drink) -- sparkling water, juice, hard cider, white wine champagne and vodka!
It's a basement flat but did not feel damp or dark in any way. You CAN hear people walking around in the evening, but everything simmers down around 8pm and I wasn't there much during the day. if you are a light sleeper, bring earplugs as you might hear the water heater switch on and off. It didn't bother me in the least.
Also, there's lots of great Maxine's and books on walking and biking and dining in Portland and. Good wifi and a TV with cable and Netflix. it rained one evening I was there but I happily stayed in and watched movies.
