This apartment suite was perfectly appointed! It is very close to shops and delicious eats. It was very quiet and cozy and for the price it was very much a value! Nancy the owner was kind and greeted and us and if we had needed anything I felt she was very accessible. The apt was also aesthetically pleasing great library of books and I used some of the Portland books to look up nearby things to do. Bed was unbelievably comfort and for me the sofa pullout was pretty good for extra guests. I would stay here again hands down.

This apartment is perfectly located in a great walkable neighborhood in Portland, so much to do in just a short distance. The bed was so comfy, we slept so well! My sister in law slept on the Sofa Bed and said it was a nice, comfortable bed as well.Having access to laundry and perhaps a toaster oven would make life easier, but this property is perfect for a short stay in Portland!!!

This was exactly what we needed - a comfortable, affordable getaway. Everything was well-maintained, the decor was simple and pleasant without clutter, and everything we wanted was provided. We had a couple of questions, and Nancy, our host, was very responsive.We ended up spending several evenings just relaxing and playing board games. The walk to the front door past the gardens is lovely, and really set the tone for us each day as we headed out to explore Portland.The neighborhood is perfect, with lots of shops and restaurants in walking distance. Since I have celiac, I appreciated *four* dedicated gluten-free restaurants in walking distance! I have fragrance sensitivities, but didn't inform the host as they have been improving. No worries - the apartment was naturally clean and fresh, with no perfumes except in the soaps that the host provided. Since I travel with my own fragrance-free products, we just used those and I had no issues - and wouldn't have had issues even if I'd been more sensitive right then. We did hear some footsteps overhead at a few points, but that's to be expected in a basement apartment. The host was quiet, and we had no trouble resting and relaxing and enjoying our 21st anniversary vacation. I will definitely check for availability here first the next time we stay in Portland!

As I said to the owner, I was unaware that this was a basement unit. The bathroom was tiny as was the sink. However, I can see the work that was put into remodeling this basement and they did a nice job. The living space with smart TV was particularly nice for my family. The bedroom was comfortable. Though, when we arrived the heat did not work. I was blamed for not knowing how to work it. I do not appreciate that.
