When we were sure that Portland couldn't be any cooler, we walked into Paul's loft and WAMO we were wrong. Its a wonderful space, well lit, covered in great artwork. The space itself is much bigger than we had expected from the pictures. The bed is very cozy, the bathroom leaves nothing to be desired. Washer/Dryer worked perfectly, and the kitchen was everything we needed. It's location is superb, the free streetcar stops at both ends of his block! and The Pearl is a great place to stay. the only downsides were these. Storage space isn't available in abundance, with that said we were staying there for a month so we had a fair amount of things with us. The closet if big enough and there's a sort of cabinet you can put clothes in. Also we couldn't find anything open late night to grab a snack/couple of groceries, but we're night people and eat pretty late so if that's not you it shan't be a problem. The restaurants in the area are wonderful. just walk west on glisan or flanders a few blocks and you'll hit some killer cuisine. We would definitely stay at Paul's place again. It was a treat!
