Our weekend stay at Arlene's was wonderful. The place was clean, quiet, and peaceful. I looked forward to opening the curtains and watching all of the birds in her backyard garden both mornings. We found the location to be central to most of our outings around Portland, and coming back to the space felt very relaxing. We cooked a few times, and found that Arlene had provided all of the essentials for doing that successfully. I would definitely recommend staying here and I look forward to coming back!
