It's a joy to stay at Traci's apartment. We loved the gas fireplace, which made for a very cozy place to sip tea and read a good book on rainy Portland afternoons. The apartment is so well insulated that we barely used the heater. The decorating style is both contemporary and vintage at the same time and blends well. It feels like it's newly constructed, as all the white woodwork is crisp and all the doors and cabinet doors close easily. The comfortable bed is a queen, but for some reason it feels like a king. There are lots of thoughtful extras, such as umbrellas right outside the door and canvas shopping bags under the sink. And of course: the location. Just a block from the 13th Ave shops, coffee and restaurants. Communication with Traci was almost instantaneous and she was extremely kind and flexible. We felt like a local living there - and will certainly be returning again and again.
