We stayed three nights in this recently renovated private basement apartment. The hosts did a fantastic job of turning it into a very comfortable getaway that was private and well appointed. The decor is cute and we had everything we needed. There are windows on either side of the space, so you can create a nice cross breeze down there, but since it is a basement, it stayed cool enough for us during the summer.

The location is in a very cool part of Portland that is hip, trendy, full of great restaurants and amenities (I recommend The Grinning Yogi for vinyasa flow classes) that are easy to walk to (1.5 blocks away!). There's also a nice protected street for bicycles and Portland recently started a bike share program with Nike (bright orange bikes) and there are locations everywhere to rent one.

Back to the apartment! The bed was VERY comfortable, which we appreciated. The bathroom is super nice including a fantastic rainwater showerhead and energy saving features. Chuck and Annika were very quiet, we only heard noises coming from above a few times, and usually it was during the weekday when most people would be out exploring. Check-in and out was very easy and they were available anytime we had questions. They have a great binder that lists out restaurant recommendations and other services, should you need ideas. We would definitely stay here again!
