The location was excellent for us with family close by and access to neighborhoods, shopping and dining that we like to visit. We especially enjoyed Mary Beth's carefully curated garden area. It's perfect for a morning cup of coffee. The house was spotless and Mary Beth was available if we had any questions. We would definitely visit her guest house again.

Relaxing place to stay in a great location. This was a terrific place to stay-clean, comfortable, easy access to public transit-and a beautiful garden, too. Every detail was thought of, and our family of four adults enjoyed hanging out here. We are normally much more on the go, but one of us sprained an ankle before we got here. So our hiking time turned into games at the outdoor table surrounded by beautiful blooms. We still got to explore the city and Multnomah Falls, but there’s so much more we want to see. So we’d love to come back -and stay here again if the timing works out. Highly recommend!!

The house is charming and felt like a home, not a hotel. A glorious garden out front, lots of thoughtful touches like both a Keurig AND coffee maker, with pods and coffee provided and small cups of cream/creamer in the fridge. Reusable metal water bottles and two filter pitchers. Shampoo, conditioner, and liquid soap. Be aware it is street parking - there is lots of room - and it is a vintage bungalow. But I would happily stay here anytime.

Very cozy, exceptionally clean, had everything we needed. We very much enjoyed our stay at this property, and we would definitely stay again on our next trip, if available. Just FYI, there was a hefty damage deposit required, which almost deterred me, but I went ahead anyway, and I’m glad we did. Highly recommend.

Comfortable, lovely and quiet

It's obvious that Mary Beth takes pride in her guest house. It was especially clean, very comfortable, nicely decorated, and well equipped. Her garden is fantastic, especially the backyard patio - a wonderful place to relax in the early morning. We loved our stay and would definitely come back!
