We loved our month and a half stay at Ellen’s and James’ condo.
We were a party of three: myself, my 5 year old son and my newborn daughter.
For us it was really “home away from home”.
4 main supermarkets within 6-10 minute walk (Safeway, New Seasons, Trader Joe’s, Fred Meyer); Walgreens - a 15 minute walk. Legacy Good Samaritan Hospital and Metropolitan Pediatrics Clinic - a 5 minute walk. Restaurants and cafes galore. A gas station 1 minute away. A small but utterly sufficient kiddos playing ground on Hoyt and 20th (at the entrance to the park). Your very own parking spot. Fully functional and well equipped kitchen. An elevator. And let’s not forget St. Honoré - the boulangerie on Thurman, just a short stroll away, and next to it a great pizza place - Life of Pie on 23rd.
The neighbourhood itself is very beautiful and entices long quiet walks at dusk. For us it will remain a memorable and wonderful stay. We enjoyed ourselves very much. It truly was our oasis in the heart of Portland.
Throughout, Ellen and James were very cordial and responsive and quickly took care of every little thing that came up. In short, we would stay there again.
