This is a cute, very clean basement space in a residential neighborhood just a few blocks from Mt. Tabor Park and from SE Portland's trendy food and shopping districts (Belmont/Hawthorne). 4 stars instead of 5 simply because of the sounds from upstairs traveling pretty much unimpeded through the floor. If you plan to go to sleep early or want to sleep in, be sure to communicate with Jennifer ahead of time. The walking, and the conversations, TV, and music from upstairs passed through the floor pretty loudly, but muffled just enough that we generally could not understand the words. Jennifer is super friendly and accommodating, though, and I don't doubt that she would be happy to discuss any needs you might have in this area.
