The Purple House is a wonderful option for those traveling to Portland as it offers a considerable amount of space and convenience. Located near everything our family ventured out to do, we always felt that "home" was waiting for us shortly after wrapping up our adventures. We easily got to and from the airport, downtown for The Saturday Market, the zoo, Portland State University, Mt. Hood, Multnomah Falls, and Tillamook State Forest. My family particularly loved the quiet neighborhood and enjoyed morning walks to admire the homes and gardens.
The Purple House is quite large comfortably sleeping our family of 4, which includes 2 teenagers. The kitchen and bathroom are clean and just what someone needs while traveling and for evenings in. There is a private balcony where mornings and evenings can be spent with a glass of wine/coffee. If anyone in your family is a music lover, this is the place to retreat to after a day out! The owners have a variety of guitars, a drum kit, and other interesting instruments for your enjoyment. If you're not into playing music, no worries; the equipment doesn't impede on your living space but it offers a fun vibe!
Owners Rachel and Bob are absolutely lovely and kind. They offer an amazing balance of being available if needed while giving as much privacy as you'd like. They have created a fantastic private apartment for travelers to use while in the Portland area. I highly recommend!
