My husband and I were in Portland for the PDX Jazz Festival and also to visit friends and family. We enjoyed our stay at Rob and Sylvia's bright, open artist's loft. Not only is it quite spacious and very clean, but the area is bathed in natural light from the well placed windows. The location was perfect for our needs. We could have made coffee and meals for ourselves in the modern, efficient kitchen, but instead we chose to walk to the various coffee bars, cafes and bistros, sampling new fare nearly every day. Very comfortable bed in the loft, and we had no problems negotiating the spiral staircase. Super quiet at night and we slept so well! The washer-dryer combo is also a handy feature. Our hosts were attentive to our needs, the parking was easy, location is perfect. We hope to stay here again on our future trips to Portland!
