Great value in a great neighborhood! Tara's place was the perfect home base for exploring SE Portland (Hawthorne, Belmont, Laurelhurst Park, ...). It was only a 3-mile bike ride to my conference in downtown Portland. The bed was super comfortable, and the heated floors in the bathroom were a nice touch. The kitchenette met our needs, especially given all the great restaurants nearby. I also enjoyed using the turntable to listen to the nice collection of old records provided. I would definitely return to SE Portland and to Tara's place.
