This place was a great find in one of our favorite Portland neighborhoods. Communication was excellent and check-in was easy. Our kids loved the setup with the modern stairs to climb and play on. It didn’t bother us at all because we were staying with our kids, but there isn’t as much privacy as you might want if traveling with two couples or something like that. The staircase is open and the layout allows for sound to travel within the space. But it was plenty quiet from street noise and we never heard any neighbors. The AC was a real life saver this August!
