Simply put, a wonderful place to stay, with wonderful hosts. Bob and Sue made us feel not just at home, they made us feel like old friends, even restraining their laughter when we related driving miles in the wrong direction in an effort to cross the Willamette River to downtown. (As Bob said, “I’ll bet you saw a lot of things you didn’t want to see.”) Laurelhurst is a gorgeous neighborhood of established homes with good access to Portland’s excellent public transportation system or an easy drive to anywhere you need to be. And the apartment really is a separate residence that even has its own patio. The “English garden cottage” is lovely and an unbeatable value. This was our first trip to Portland… a wonderful city to explore and, with the beautiful Pacific Coast just 2 hours away and the Columbia Gorge just a half an hour, we will need to return… with even more items on our list. A word of advice, any recommendations from Sue and Bob, be it for a restaurant, a “must see” site or just the best way to get somewhere are golden. The apartment, comfortable and cozy… the hosts, the absolute best.
