This studio is a great find—a carefully put together stylish space with many considerate small details. It is shiny clean with sufficient storage space for our bags and a cute and easily workable galley kitchen, a VERY comfortable bed and prompt host communication. It is in one of Portland’s most convenient neighborhoods with tempting array of restaurants, bars, shopping and services within a few steps of the apartment and merely a 10 min drive from the city center to downtown theater, museums, etc.
As previous guests and the hosts have mentioned you will hear the upstair’s apartment’s plumbing (as well as occasionally footsteps and muffled voices) but having been forewarned we didn’t find it bothersome, the neighbors are considerate and kept moderate hours. It’s just part of life in an old building. The front street is rather busy but to our surprise we didn’t hear any traffic noise at all inside.
All in all this is a five star rental.
We would return in a heartbeat!
