Arrival experience could not have been easier. Location is in lively neighborhood but in a peaceful block. Faultlessly clean and tidy. Outdoor space delightful. Shower room downright luxurious. Long term guests should be aware that there is little garment storage. There are under bed drawers that took me a few days to discover. Late sleepers should be aware that People's Food Coop starts loading dock operations just outside the bathroom window around 7 am most mornings. Portland is too exciting for us to want to sleep late. Your mileage may vary. There is little extra space indoors for hanging out. Expect to use outdoors and neighborhood joints instead of a living room. Loved our stay but wanted others to know what to expect.
