Mark's place is in a great location. This was my first time visiting Portland and I could easily get around to the major hot spots. Responses from his management company are very fast. I needed to store my bags past check out time and they were very kind/accommodating. The space is very clean and has everything you'd ever want. There is quite a bit of noise that comes from his place upstairs though. I wasn't around much, but the times that I was, I could definitely hear footsteps/water/etc. Overall it was a great spot for our weekend getaway. We chatted a bit with Mark one afternoon, he's a great guy with 2 adorable pets! Definitely try to say hi if you can!
