Are you looking for a great, quiet, neighborhood “just like you live here” spot for a couple? This is it. This airbnb is well laid out and a great studio-like apartment. The stair are *real* stairs, not sheer vertical leaps. I’m disabled and this was the easiest stairs for me to get up. The AC + fan combo is great on those hot portland days but when the weather is cooler - the crossbreeze from the windows gets the job done. The washer/dryer is great, the bed is extremely comfortable, and the shower is wonderful, with both rainfall and wand settings + great water pressure. Oh and the sheets! Most comfortable sheets of an airbnb! The evenings (9-10pm +) are very quiet, even if you have the windows open! The fridge and freezer both can accommodate a decent sized amount of groceries. The stove/oven was not used by us this trip but were good quality. The hot tub can accommodate two (bigger) adults comfortably. The “grass” feels nice under bare feet without the allergies of the real stuff. We didn’t use the sauna but it smelled wonderful. You can easily walk to the nearby food park, cafe, brewery or comic book shop (seriously this place was amazing).
Valerie is very responsive to messages and is one of the best hosts I’ve dealt with. We loved the neighborhood (and very friendly! neighbors). If you do stay here, please treat it like your home, with respect and consideration.
