In the heart of NW Portland! Close to several bars, restaurants, and local shops. An easy walk to Providence Park if you are into the Timbers. Next to Providence Park is the MAX if you want to train around town. A short walk to the Rose Garden and Japanese Garden. Lots to do, eat, and drink without needing a car. There is some noise from Kells across the street until about 1 a.m. on the weekends, but it's part of being in the middle of it all. I felt safe as well. I highly recommend.
