For hospitality, value and location you'll be hard pressed to find a better place to stay in Portland than this. Arias and the other house residents made me feel very much welcome, and the place itself was very comfortable. It's definitely an arts centric place, with all the idiocincracies that accompany that tag, so maybe not ideal for people wanting a more sterile, hotel like experience. However, for anyone that wants a truly Portland experience, this pad is ideal.
