We had high hopes, but it was truly even better than I had expected. It was such a unique and interesting space-- something I always look for in an AirBnB. And nothing was sacrificed in terms of amenities and conveniences. We had our own separate parking area right at the loft. The way that the space fully functions as an art gallery and a comfortable living space, using these cool sliding walls, reminds me of some of the grand finales of those home makeover shows. It's just fun.
Mary Lou couldn't be a warmer host. And one night she and her husband happened to be having marionberry pie-- an Oregon specialty that we had never heard of. She warmed up two pieces and brought it over to us. We are not particularly fond of pies in general, but I'm telling you that this was the most amazing pie we had ever had. Not only that, but it introduced us to a cool local Oregon fruit that we wouldn't have gotten in any other state, but would likely have missed out on if not for Mary Lou!
The neighborhood is so beautiful-- every house different and so cool-looking. And located just a a few minutes from Willamette University.
I couldn't recommend more highly!
