I must say that I was a little nervous about the noises from the child and dog in the house, and the busy streets around the house. But I was pleasantly surprised that we enjoyed peace and quiet. The place is small, but very cozy and well-stocked with coffee, tea, snacks, toiletries, etc. Check-in was super easy and Dan & Jackie were thorough and timely with communications. It was a longer walk than we preferred to get to restaurants, but Laurelhurst Park is very close by and beautiful!
