I agonized over different neighborhoods and prices of places to stay in Portland. This was the first time visiting and I wanted a place that was a fair value without excessive fees, in a vibrant food-centric neighborhood, in a walkable neighborhood with easy public transportation.... This place fit it all, with a wonderful and accommodating host. I was NOT looking for a super updated, pricey place with every conceivable comfort because I wanted to explore the city. This is a quant attic studio. More than enough for two. I hope to return to Portland and I'll be staying here.
