About this property
The Alberta Escape - 2br - Awesome Location!
Cozy and welcoming 2br basement suite ideal for travelers looking to explore Portland from a walkable location with easy access to public transportation. 94 Walk Score and 100 Bike score, this is the perfect home base for those who prefer to ditch the car for a few days and enjoy all of the Alberta Arts neighborhood cafes, breweries, restaurants, coffee shops, bike shops, galleries & boutiques. Easy freeway access and just 15 mins by car from downtown Portland.
**Please note: Owners live onsite in main house upstairs.
*Pets allowed w/ host approval*
This is a ground floor duplex unit with a kitchenette (toaster oven, microwave, mini fridge, coffee maker, french press, electric tea kettle, dishes/silverware) as well as a small dining area, a lounge area with a day bed that doubles as a sleeper, a big screen Smart TV, as well as 2 bedrooms - with one King and one queen bed. Plus, a full bathroom with a soaking tub.
This is perfect for a couple or small family that prefers to dine out from one of the many eateries rather than cook from home.
Upstairs occupants do have a dog. Please contact us if you have allergies or would like to discuss further.
**Daybed does not come dressed - DIY set up if wanting to use
This apartment is set up for you and you alone, so you will have sole access to the entirety of it, as well as the private side entrance. Backyard is not available for use by guests.
Nestled on a cozy, quiet and safe residential street, yet only 1 block to the charming bars, eateries and shopping of Alberta Street - this is the perfect location for any traveler! Albert Arts district is a quiet and colorful commercial area with a handful of unique bars, eateries and boutiques galore, as well as a full-service gym. Enjoy the amazing street art, as you stroll down Alberta Street - just a hop, skip and a jump from the Airbnb - and there is a beautiful park about a half mile away. It's a great location for all ages!
This is an excellent location! Graded with an impressive 94 Walk Score and 100 Bike score, this is the perfect locale for those who prefer to ditch the car for a few days and enjoy all that this beautiful and desirable area has to offer! However, for those who need to get places in their car, this is also a wonderful location! Centered between 4 highways - no more than 3 miles away - you can access downtown in about 10-20 min (traffic depending), Vancouver in 15-20 min, the Airport or Oregon Zoo in about 15 min and the desirable St. Johns District or Hawthorne Districts in about 15-20 minutes. For the public transit fans, 4 buses run every 10-15 min within under a mile of the house (#72, #17, #8, #24)
Pets are accepted on a case by case basis and may accrue additional fees. Please inquire BEFORE putting in a reservation request, thank you!
