We had the best time at Maren's place! She's so friendly and we enjoyed talking with her, albeit briefly. She was also great at communicating and quick to respond to any questions and setting up our arrival. The studio was very spacious and fully equipped with anything we could need, including a sweet gift in the fridge! Everything was neat and tidy, and we loved that there was a binder with some background information as well as recommendations for things to do and what was close to the house. The house is in a great neighborhood and was really quiet. The porch is beautiful and secluded, and we enjoyed hanging out and having a beer out there in the late afternoon. . We walked just about everywhere, but it was only a couple blocks from the bus to go downtown as well. We will definitely be staying here any time we return to Portland!
