This is a great place to stay in Portland and Norah was a wonderful host. We stayed here for a month while we were looking for an apartment as we had just moved from California. Norah was so cool and friendly to talk to we ran into her a few times in passing. The place is relatively private, all the windows have shades and you are not bothered (unless trains and chicken noises bother you, they are quite charming to me).

Location was great, a short under 10 minute walk to a Whole Foods, a nice vintage store on Fremont and lots of good places on Alberta St. I work downtown and it was a very simple bus ride for me every morning.

The place is small but comfortable.. we had three there and 2 of us slept in the loft bed and the other one slept on the pull out couch, all comfortably. The kitchen had everything we needed and we loved having a washer and dryer. Norah was quick to respond to any questions or any additional items we needed while we were there.

All in all I will definitely be recommending Norah's place to stay for my friends and family that come to visit me!
