The house was exactly as advertise . . . beautiful, spacious, and with an excellent location. The kitchen and living areas were very large and comfortable, and the whole apartment was light and airy. Very clean and well stocked. We paid the extra $10 per day for the parking space, which was well worth it. Parking in the area is available, but scarce. Tom was a very good host - he responded to all of our questions promptly. The wifi and the television worked well.
Renters should be aware that the unit is a third floor walk-up. The stairs are not difficult, and even our 80+ year old grandpa made it up and down without too much trouble. There is only one bathroom, but it is large, clean and updated.
My family's biggest negative was something that Tom had no control over . . . the heat wave. This flat has no air conditioning, and even with the many fans he provided, it was still roasting hot. This was a freak weather event and I believe that in Portland's more normal weather patterns there are enough widows to keep the flat well ventilated
Overall, excellent home and host.
