Next time I'm in Portland, I'm making a bee-line for the Tiny House's reservation calendar, and this is why:

* The space is so comfortable, well-designed, and perfectly furnished -- especially the kitchen. What a dream! Everything you'd want for a short stay is thoughtfully included. We especially loved the Chemex, plus the fresh coffee beans & loose-leaf tea.
* Martin is a wonderful host. He was communicative beforehand, and made sure the house was warm & toasty for our arrival. During our stay, he gave us lots of privacy, as well as a great set of typewritten house guidelines/neighborhood recommendations.
* As promised, transportation around Mt. Tabor is a breeze. We took advantage of the nearby bus lines, as well as the streetside Zipcar within walking distance.
* Very important to some, and a definite plus for us: the water pressure and temperature in the bathroom shower was excellent! Being able to come back to a good shower after running around all day made a big difference.

I'll admit, I'm sometimes wary of reviews that have nothing but glowing praise... but I can't resist. I've got nothing negative to report. I can't wait to recommend the Tiny House to my friends, and I would be thrilled to book with Martin and his family in the future.
