What a wonderful place to stay! My husband and I were visiting our daughter in Portland for ten days during the holidays and we were so lucky to find such a perfect home-away-from-home! Ed and his wife warmly greeted us when we arrived and went over everything in the apartment, making sure that we had everything we needed, which we did. The place is beautifully designed and decorated, with two bathrooms...one with a super Jacuzzi tub and the other with the best shower I've ever experienced, with plenty of hot water, which I especially appreciated.

The location is also perfect...a few minutes' drive from many popular shopping and dining areas, but located up the hill in a quiet and gorgeous neighborhood. There is also a great local grocery store nearby that you can drive or walk to.

We arrived from the San Francisco Bay Area unaccustomed to snow, so when it did snow (which was beautiful), our warm-weather car didn't know what to do. :) So Ed, very kindly, lent us his very own 4-wheel drive, complete with a hat and gloves for my hubby, so that we could get to my daughter's for dinner! I call that going way above and beyond, and we will always remember our stay there so fondly. I was sad to leave but can't wait to come back!
