Mount Tabor is a great Portland neighborhood to stay in and this house was the perfect base for my husband and myself while visiting our son. It was just a short walk to a great restaurant, Tabor Tavern, the first night. One night was rainy and we decided to stay in for dinner. I picked up dinner basics at a nearby grocery, and found sufficient seasonings and pans and utensils to fix a nice dinner. Gitta was a great host made our stay comfortable.
