Susan's house is spectacular - such a great location with an easy walk to a beautiful riverside park, and trees all around. The space itself is roomy and cozy at the same time, and the neighborhood is peaceful and quiet at night. Everything is stocked very well, so you can do everything from prepare a snack to cooking a whole meal in the kitchen. We enjoyed sitting in the living room with a glass of wine, and if the weather were a little better we would have enjoyed the rooftop patio as well. I imagine in summer it would be a fantastic hang out up there! The location couldn't be better - you are very near the hustle and bustle of downtown without having to deal with the noise at night when you're trying to sleep. We loved staying here, and hopefully Susan will let us return the next time we come through Portland.
