I spent 2 weeks in Anne and Eric’s cozy basement apartment while visiting family in Portland. The apartment is delightful. Bright orange and yellow accent walls as well as well-placed track lighting brighten the space, which is decorated with bohemian flair. Anne and Eric made sure that I had everything that I needed—even replacing the coffee pot with a teapot when I needed hotter water for my Aeropress coffee maker that I travel with. There is a mini-kitchen that includes a small frig, toaster oven, microwave, and coffee pot (or tea pot). I was also pleased that there were several narrow windows that could be opened for ventilation if needed. The bed was so comfy that it was hard for me to get up in the morning—so comfy, in fact, that I have decided that I need a new mattress at home so that I can sleep as well as I did there. It was nice to have my own bathroom and living area for lounging. And my grandchildren just loved the big doll house (built by Eric for his daughter) and the cool little table with a track for those mini-cars kids love. The wireless internet was fast, and Eric has installed a cell phone repeater device so I got 5 bars on my cell phone (I need one of those at home too). Nice surprises included a Hersey bar and a bouquet of daffodils. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend that you stay here too.
