The cottage was a perfect choice for my friend and I to spend 6 nights in Portland. Our daughters joined us for 3 days of our stay and we never felt cramped for space since the house is spacious with an open kitchen, dining and living area. Gibran's house is impeccably clean with wood floors and every imaginable tool in the kitchen. For example, I was packing a china cup that I bought in Victoria in my suitcase and needed some packing tape to secure it in the box and found tape in a kitchen drawer. We never had any problem with parking on the street. Space was always available. The location was convenient to restaurants, coffee houses and a great supermarket even though we don't cook on vacation. We make coffee and bought snacks. The neighborhood is safe and friendly. We would definitely stay here again.
