The property was well maintained. It wasnt far to walk to get downtown and the waterfront. We were very lucky to be able to park in the driveway, but there were spaces to park on the street as well. The neighborhood was very quiet. The house was very clean. We enjoyed it very much.

Perfect spot to see Portland

This place was clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed as a homebase to explore Portland. I walked over 15 miles to check out the parks and multiple areas in the city. Everything was easy to get to and at the end of the day this cozy little place was so relaxing. Highly recommend if you’re coming into the city and want to check out all it has to offer.

Wonderful Goose Hollow apartment

Perfect place for a couple visiting Goose Hollow. Walking distance to Washington Park and the Rose Garden as well as great restaurants and breakfast spots. Miyoko was an excellent host; she was very responsive to all of our questions and requests. The back patio was nice for a glass of wine in the evening. On street parking was not an issue (just be sure to ask Miyoko to obtain a permit).

Nice studio in a great location

The property is well maintained and located close to tourist sights. Very hilly but public transport is close by. Cel tower signal is weak and during our stay we could not access their wifi. We connected to the internet by doing so in areas with better reception.

About the host

Hosted by House on Ardmore

Host profile image
We love travelling, trying different food and activities, and meeting new people.
We have done backpacking, driving across from North to South America as well as travelling overseas and within USA, from cheap to luxurious.

We speak fluent English, Arabic and Japanese.

We look forward to have people staying at our place.

Why they chose this property

We only wanted buy a house within two blocks of where we are.
Because, it's located on a very quiet street in a safe and the most desirable neighborhood in Portland.
You can walk to evrywhere even downtown Portland is less than a mile walk and Washington Park is like our back yard. NW 23rd Avenue is also only 2 blocks away.

There are so many excellent restaurants, cafes, bakeries, delis and too many good things to mention around here.

We did not have a car and we did not need it because everything was walkable.
