Liz's apartment is a perfect place to stay for your visit to Portland. We especially appreciated the amenities for our two weeks there: a washer and dryer, a fully tricked-out kitchen with full sized fridge and excellent stove, and a microwave. It's much bigger than the pictures on the listing suggest. The bed is comfy. The shower the best. Plenty of closet and storage space. And Alameda is a beautiful neighborhood, a treat if you like to walk. There's a great restaurant and a coffee shop just a block away, but when in Portland you are never far from good food and great coffee. Liz is a responsive helpful host and I would recommend her unit to everyone....and hope to stay there myself on my next trip!
