My wife and I stayed for two nights in this "sunny separate studio" in south east Portland. The living area is spacious, well equipped, nicely furnished and very private. Scott was there to help us acclimatize to the local area on our arrival and provided some valuable suggestions for dining and shopping in a pleasant commercial area located about five minutes away by car, or a comfortable fifteen minute walk. In particular we enjoyed the Jade asian fusion restaurant and our visits to the friendly Grand Central Bakery site. This was our first visit to Portland and the location provided convenient access routes by car not only to downtown Portland but also to the Columbia River Gorge system east of Portland. Some others have mentioned street noise and certainly it can be a bit busier on a weekday, but presented no significant concerns for us. Particularly appreciated were the recently installed ceiling fans that made the space quite comfortable despite the mid-90 degrees temperatures during our visit.
