This was my first trip to Portland and I couldn't have picked a better place to stay than Anne-Marie's! Located in a great area in Hawthorne, her home was within walking distance of so many great spots (Pok Pok, Salt and Straw, Blue Star Donuts, Baghdad Theater and Pub, Powell's on Hawthorne, just to name a few!) and easy to travel from to downtown Portland. Her home is beautifully decorated and so cozy! Her front yard is especially magical; you have to see it at night when it is all lit up with fairy lights! Though my stay in Portland was very short, I was greatly affected by Anne-Marie's and her adorable doodle, Miss Penny's, extraordinary hospitality. If I am ever in Portland, I will be sure to stay with Anne-Marie again!
