This was a very clean and comfortable place to stay. And for the money, you couldn't ask for anything better. Shannon and Claudius respected our privacy, and left a note on a "message center" in the kitchen with any instructions or anything else we may need to know about the apartment. It had a separate entrance, a private bath (which, by the way was quite clean), towels, etc. There was not one thing that was negative about our experience with them. I truly hope the next time we visit Portland we have the opportunity to stay with them again! Rick and Alice
