We drove in from out of town to visit family in Portland for 4 nights, and this was a great place for us to stay. We have a 4 year old, 3 year old, and 7 month old, and we were all very comfortable. My husband and I stayed in the largest bedroom with our baby. There was a pack 'n play for us to use, but we couldn't figure it out (pretty sure it's just user error) so we just put one of the blankets on the floor for our baby to sleep on. He slept like a rock all 4 nights. Our two older kids slept together on the bed in the other bedroom and loved it. The closet had some toys that were a lot of fun for them and heaven-sent for us in between activities.
The weather was quite cool while we were there, so I was expecting to have to use the heater. We only turned it up a bit (to about 64) and it got too warm. The overall temperature of the basement was pretty much perfect.
My husband did wish there was a TV, but we were fine with our laptop and phones. The greatest part of the place is the kitchen and dining area. It was so nice to be able to store food in the fridge and eat breakfast at the dining table. If we had stayed for longer, we probably would have used the oven eventually. The cabinets have plenty of dinnerware, cooking tools, and there are even some non-perishable foods that other guests left behind.
The bathroom has just a shower rather than a bathtub/shower combo, which made it a bit tricky for us to bathe our kids. Our oldest didn't want to get in the shower; she kept saying she was afraid. Eventually she did get in!
Because we drove, we didn't have to worry about walking or public transportation to get around. If you come by plane and don't rent a car, you'll still be able to get places by public transportation if you stay here.
Our stay was perfect and really comfortable with 3 kids. I highly recommend staying here, especially if you have a family.
