THIS PLACE IS GREAT! Everything we needed was available to us. It is about a 10 minute drive to downtown Portland and depending where you are wanting to go in each quarter a rather quick car ride from those points as well. My guests and I were all pleased that we didnt have to rummage too deep to find plates, cookery and other kitchen amenities. There was on site laundry as well. I'd say that unless you want to walk outside and be at Stumptown and in downtown Portland immediately, then its a great place for a group of friends to rent.
