This is a wonderful place to stay, and we hope to use it next time we are in Portland. (That is the best recommendation I know of.)

It is wonderfully private, with it's own entrance (though not handicap accessible.) Perhaps best of all, it is quiet.
Ben is a great host and very friendly, though he stays out of your way.

We loved that the apartment was very clean. The kitchen was nice, and we fixed our own breakfast every morning. The cooking surface was a hot plate, which we took out to the patio to fix our eggs.

It was especially nice to have a dedicated washer and dryer for our clothes, meaning that we could pack less.

The neighborhood is very nice and very walk-able. There are several good restaurants, and coffee shops in easy walking distance. Mass transit access is just down the street.
