Joel and his wife have created a cozy space in a studio below their home. There was a comprehensive guide with local tips and lots of maps, brochures, and magazines to check out about Portland. I think we tried 3-4 of their food recommendations, and were NOT disappointed!! The location was perfect and street parking was easy. The room was extremely clean and spacious. I was expecting a smaller room for the price, but was pleasantly surprised by how large the space was. The washer and drier was a plus after a week long hiking trip. There were a ton of kitchen amenities and extra glasses, mugs, etc. You could basically live in this space as long as you could get away without having an oven. And with their amazing food recs and Alberta arts district down the road, there isn't a need to cook anyway!
