My husband and I needed to get out of our apartment for a long weekend and we decided to stay in the Portland area for a staycation.
IndigoBirch was an excellent choice. Our stay began on Thursday when Curtis messaged us with a custom entry code and asked if we had a preferred temperature for the studio. Above and beyond!
We arrived and the code worked perfectly. We were welcomed with a personalized note and a bully stick for our dog!
The thought, intention, and attention to detail in this space is incredible. From the stacked washer and dryer (with detergent!) to the compact dishwasher to the full size refrigerator (with a Brita filter water dispenser) and freezer. The oven/microwave combo was a lifesaver. We broiled a round of brie for our charcuterie board the first night and baked cookies the next! They also have a nice toaster and coffee maker (we didn't use, but if we were out of town I'm sure we would have).
The tv and sound system are really great as well, though we didn't use it. The heated tiles in the bathroom were a nice touch, the towels were very soft, and the shower was nice and hot!
We spent a night by the fire pit and a night in the hot tub. The tub is unique! I don't think I've ever seen one like it — wooden, round. It was raining, so Curtis opened the patio awning covering so that we didn't get rained on. It was lovely watching our dog run around the garden with the smell of the fresh Portland air and the campfire wafting by.
I honestly don't think there's anything that even remotely would be negative about this place. The location is wonderful (10 minutes from downtown, blocks away from Reed College). Hospitality 10/10. OH! The bedding. Incredible. There were feather pillows and Curtis also pointed out foam pillows in case we had a preference. Their sheets were from Schoolhouse, a PDX/NY home store and were incredibly comfortable as well.
We will be back!!
