Aimee was very quick to respond and flexible with our check-in which we really appreciated!
The location for this place is perfect. Pretty quiet neighborhood, close enough to downtown that driving or taking a Lyft is a breeze. Close enough to the highway that getting out of the city was also super convenient. We did not use public transportation or bikes so I cannot comment on that, but we were really pleased with the location. Our favorite nearby places were Waypost (close little dive bar with really great tacos and margs... the bartender was also great!) and TwentySix Cafe, which seemed like a quaint little locals spot. The New Seasons Market was a block away, super convenient and really nice too!
The apartment was clean, and the bed was very comfy!
Thumbs down:
We encountered a lot of bugs in the bathroom (opened the shower curtain to find a big spider one day and a big silverfish another day)... the space appeared clean, so I don’t think the issue was cleanliness... perhaps because this is a basement apartment? We managed, but just thought others may want to be aware. The water pressure in the shower was sufficient, but wasn’t great. The listing noted air conditioning and heat, but you should know that there is no control for this in the space. You would need to talk to Aimee about adjusting the temperature of the home. This also was not a problem for us because the weather was perfect for our stay, but be advised you wouldn’t have any control of temperature here.
Overall, we were very happy with our stay and would probably stay here again if we are ever back in Portland.
