Nick and Shelly were gracious hosts. They checked on me every now and then to see if I needed anything, but they didn't invade my privacy at all. My dog, Gus, had a great time playing with their dog in their large backyard. Their kindness was much appreciated during my moving process to Portland. The apartment was also within walking distance of a lot of shops and restaurants in Multnomah Village, and also close to Gabriel Park. I'd recommend this apartment and it's hosts!
