The place is great. Photos and description are accurate. It's a nice quiet place, far back from the street in a little private "mews." It is a very residential neighborhood--and the neighborhoods are one of the best things about Portland. It is a working class area, quiet, a little suburban. Not close to nightlife but Portland is easy to navigate. Mt Tabor Park nearby is a huge bonus. Good coffee place on the corner and lots of privacy within the apartment. It rained (hard) the entire time we were there but because of the way the place is designed, we never got cabin fever. Would return.
