We rented the bohemian antique suite, which, as Melanie aptly described, is decorated with Victorian furniture and textiles and carpets, a luxurious bathtub, and a heavenly Queen bed. We were in Portland for business -- training in the morning and eating foods around town in the afternoon/evening. The space is so comfy and large -- so much better than a boutique hotel because of the location and personality.
This neighborhood was the perfect, quiet place to retire after a long day. The bus is one block west; the light rail just a ten minute walk; there's Good Coffee and Heart Coffee and a beautiful street in Laurelhurst all within walking distance. Plus Car2Gos abound (and other car sharing company cars) nearby.
And Melanie! Melanie was a fantastic host. She met us on the porch when we arrived and even went WAY out of her way to help us on our last night in town, when we had rental car troubles.
I highly recommend Melanie's place!
