My boyfriend and I stayed at Ellen and Mark’s place in Sellwood and it was so nice. We could walk to the cute downtown of Sellwood and could quickly get to restaurants and coffee. It was also easy to get to downtown Portland. The place itself was very cozy and well equipped! We had never slept on a Murphy bed, but it was surprisingly comfortable. We really appreciated Ellen and Mark’s hospitality, including setting up the bed for us given our late arrival. We would recommend staying at Ellen and Mark’s place if you’re looking to stay in the Portland area!
