Jere's unit is a comfortable, quiet space, partially underground so it stays cool during the day (the week I was there it got over over 90F, so that was great). It is not the brightest space, but there's enough natural light in the front living area during the day, and plenty of lighting throughout the unit to make up for it. Street parking was pretty easy, especially before 5pm, after which you may end up more than a block away from the unit. The neighborhood is great, though, with lots of trees and friendly folks, and within half a mile (easy walking distance) of cafes, restaurants and markets. Jere and Dina are very respondsive and made sure I had everything I needed for a great stay. Perfect home base for a Portland adventure!
