The suite is clean and comfy. The park across the street is great for kids and full of locals on nice days. Jennifer and her family are great hosts who value quiet and privacy. You get your own driveway and entrance to the suite. You are less than 3 blocks from busy and lively Hawthorne st which is great to walk and explore the shops, restaurants and bars. Hike Mt. Tabor for a great view of the city. A quick bus gets you downtown or to Division st. This is our second stay in Portland and I would recommend staying in this area.
