This place felt like home when we visited Portland last week. Everything was very clean and ready to use when we got there. The bed may take some getting used to--it is a bit more firm than we thought it would be. But after the first night, we barely noticed it. This place was right off of NE Alberta St. (the Alberta Arts district) where there are TONS of shops, restaurants, bars, and bus stops just within walking distance. It was a safe neighborhood to walk around, even at night. Also, communicating with Ivy and Hisayuki was always excellent. We would get responses within a reasonable time when messaging them, and they were always very helpful! I could go on and on about this studio, but all that to say, my husband and I want to come back and stay here again. We really grew to like Portland when we were here!
