The apartment was very nice and in great condition. It was very large (at least for us visiting from NY!) and had loads of comfy seating, beds, and blankets. The decor, too, was quite nice. And fortunately, being in the winter, the heater worked quite well.

A few things to note: this house is in the northern part of Portland, which is easy if you've got a car but may be more difficult if you're depending on public trans. Also, the listing correctly states that there is no fireplace. So for those (like myself) who look at pictures and forget what they read, take note! Lastly, the living room/dining room/kitchen windows had no blinds. This was the only issue I had with the apartment, especially since it's a corner house.
