Carol was very inviting during our check in. We loved the space during our stay in Portland. The area is very walkable for NW 23rd area, but public transport or a car will be needed to get downtown/east. After the first day of staying, we learned that using our car to travel around Portland was best for us. Very easy parking and easy process of coming/going. Carol was responsive and helped us pick dinner locations. The laundry and back yard was a very good accommodation to have!
