Luisa's cottage was the perfect choice for my stay in Portland. The bed was comfortable, the studio clean, and the amenities exactly what I needed while I walked back and forth to my daughter's condo on The Hill to help with my newest grandson. I especially enjoyed the little outdoor patio for reading or drinking a glass of wine or some tea. Luisa was very quick to respond to any of my questions and concerns and I was delighted with a chance to meet her when she stopped by to replace an outdoor light for me. It is easy to walk to the hospital for a cup of coffee, the Tuesday Farmers' Market, Thai Yummy Food Cart and the great new craft beer and food restaurant right across the street. If you don't mind a walk, the Marquam Nature Preserve is beautiful, and downhill the Lair Hill and John's Landing neighborhoods have some charming restaurants. The buses and tram run conveniently as well. It will be the perfect return spot for our return visits to family.
