This place has soul. It has the perfect blend of professional amenities with artistic interior design and a neighborly non-hotel feel. The cottage is a studio somewhere between 400 and 500 square feet. The four poster bed was as beautiful and comfortable as promised. I bet other reviews don't mention the books; one of the "delightful surprises" promised was an above-average book selection. Not too few or too many, and there was one thing for everyone including a classic and contemporary literature, kids, joke, sports, spiritual, beach reads, etc. I don't typically find something I want to read in other vacation rentals.
I did a staycation, and as a local I can certify that the suggested entertainment in the info binder was savvy and spot-on, so be sure to read it. This is a place that will allow you to spend your whole trip without having to drive anywhere. Multnomah Village is a tucked-away neighborhood like Kenton or Sellwood that used to be a small town before it was annexed by the city of Portland, and it continues to look and operate like a 100-year-old small town. The "town center" has completely linked safe sidewalks and yet there is no concrete urban sprawl in sight. It is one of Portland's most walkable neighborhoods that has almost everything you need within walking distance. Ha ha, I sound like a travel writer! I'm just a big fan of the place.
