Spent two weeks in this studio and greatly appreciate the host-thought-of-everything amenities, convenience in walking to shops and restaurants and friendliness of the host. This is a studio that is especially welcoming to tall guests. I'm 6 foot and my husband is 6'2" and we often find outselves challenged staying in places where the shower and cabinets are too low or small. This was perfect.
In addition, the studio gets plenty of light. This is especially important is you are visiting Portland during the rainy season, as we did. Skylights and the many windows in the sitting room make the studio bright even on dreary days. This sitting room makes for a great perch from which to observe the neighborhood.
The studio sits on a busy road so you hear commuter traffic in the morning and evenings, but the road noise quiets down throughout the night.
We took advantage of the great walkability, enjoying nearby restaurants, stores and brew pubs. It was easy to go for a short walk and find a great restaurant at the end of a busy day.
Scott was very friendly and accommodating. We did not have any thing to complain about while we were there, but he checked in with us to make sure we were comfortable. I highly recommend this studio! Enjoy your stay!
