My parents and I stayed at Joelle's apartment while passing through Portland from Eugene to Seattle. We booked at the last minute the day that we arrived and was very happy with the place! It was a beautiful house, the apartment was clean and furnished very nicely. We didn't spend a lot of time at the apartment but when we did it was very enjoyable, sitting out on the front porch was lovely. Being close to the highway it was quite loud, but was not a problem inside the house. Great location to be in as we easily drove downtown and walked to Mississippi street and around there for dinner. The information left in the book for us was very helpful. When we needed a hairdryer and there was not one at the apartment Joelle quickly brought us one! Would stay again for sure.
