This is a GREAT location if you are looking for a quieter corner of Portland with walkable amenities. Arriving and enjoying my time was easy! The hosts were amenable to an earlier arrival which helped the flow of my trip greatly. I appreciated their thorough communication. In case you are a bath lover the clawfoot tub does not disappoint. I am very short, however, so you may need to duck during a shower or tuck in your legs to enjoy that bath if you are taller than 5 feet. Some noise can be heard from within the house during the day, as mentioned, but the noise levels were low and respectful. Having lived in Portland, I highly recommend this spot as a base camp for your long weekend exploring!
