  I was on a one week business trip to Portland and wanted my wife to be able to enjoy the shopping and fun of the city from a central location. the Hopartment is in a great location, not too far out of the city, in a cozy neighborhood with walkable shopping and food. The apartment was exactly as it looks in the pictures, cozy and stocked with everything you need. We liked the closet and drawer space, as well as the upstairs loft. Everything was well placed and made us feel like home. Brian (and son) were a great hosts as well. He was very helpful in recommending local places to check out. The reservation process was also very easy to do. He was responsive to all my questions and made the payment simple. It seemed more like I was dealing with a friend than some stranger running a business. We look forward to coming back to Portland and staying here again. Both my wife and I loved staying at Inn Beervana and highly recommend it to anyone! Thanks Brian!

  We had a great time celebrating my husband's birthday at Inn Beervana. The apartment is super cozy and the location was great! Really appreciated arriving to a carefully selected 6 pack of Oregon brews - very nice after a long drive. The weather was great, which made us appreciate the location that much more. Would love to visit again. Was great to be able to bring our pooch along.

  This place was great! Convenient, central location in walking distance to everything we could ask for. The hopartment was super comfy for our family. We enjoyed the mixed 6 pack of craft beers left in the fridge for us upon our arrival. We will definitely be back! Thanks Brian and Kimberley!

  The Inn was the perfect accomodation for our family of 4 (two kids under 10). For them, the highlight was the loft, which was nice and our 4 1/2yr old had no trouble on the ladder. For us, the location was ideal as we could explore the Hawthorne neighborhood on foot - although in our short stay, we barely scratched the surface. Access to the rest of Portland was a breeze and this area is central to it all. I was actually surprised that the living area was bigger than I had imagined based on the photos. The kitchen facilities were adequate and we cooked a couple meals during our stay. We also had a very friendly greeting on arrival from the owner and family and later a great chat about beer with the other owner. The 6-pack in the fridge was a most welcome bonus. Highly recommended. We would also highly recommend 'Fried Egg I'm in Love', 'The Waffle Window', and 'Dick's Kitchen' in the area. Hopefully, we can make it back sometime and check more things out.

  Owner response: Thanks for the great comments and you know your hopartment away from home is always here for you to keep exploring, though we think you guys explored admirably for just a few days. Cheers.

  After selling our house in Portland in preparation for a 2-year around the world trip, my wife, daughter, and myself needed a place to call home for the 6-weeks before leaving Portland and starting our adventure. Out of all the places available in Portland, we chose to stay at Brian and Kimberley's Inn Beervana, aka Hopartment. The apartment is very roomy and well equipped. Our 8-year old daughter made her home in the loft and loved climbing up and down the ladder. The beds were very comfortable and we had a great nights sleep every night we were there. The loft also provided enough space and privacy for the three of us. The absolute best thing about the apartment is the location. You truly do not need a car to stay here as you can walk, ride a bike, or take the Tri-Met bus. There is plenty to do in the neighborhood ranging from excellent restaurants, entertainment, shopping, and to several neighborhood parks. However according to out daughter, the best thing about the apartment is Dunkel. Dunkel is Brian and Kimberley’s very nice laid back dog. Sydney loved playing with Dunkel. Kimberly and Brian went out of their way to welcome us and to make sure that everything we needed was available. It was a wonderful place to call home for 6 weeks and we highly recommend it to anyone wishing to stay there.

  Beervana is the place to stay! What a warm, comfortable, convenient place for a family of 4! It has all the amenities you could possibly need for a short or long stay. The bed is to die for; you just melt in and sleep like a baby. the loft was perfect for the kids! We found that Hawthorne is the most wonderful location to stay in Portland for its central locale and Beervana is a mere block away from the BEST restaurants and shopping. I just can’t get over shopping without sales tax! From the Waffle Window for breakfast (you must try the Farm Fresh Waffle) to Samui, the best Thai food I've ever eaten in my life (please try the Lemongrass Rice-wow). No matter what we did or where we went, Beervana welcomed us home. We will return to Beervana every time we come to Portland. It's so much better than any hotel and a great value for the price. Brian and Kim are wonderful hosts and their baby, Izzy, is the happiest baby I've ever met! We recommend Beervana to everyone!

  Owner response: Dear Michelle, Thanks for your kind words and awesome review. We loved having your family stay here and get to explore both the eateries and I know a couple of the local beers, to boot. We promise you and your boys will have fresh waffles available just around the corner on your next visit.

  The Inn Beervana was a wonderful introduction to Portland--its food, life, culture, and of course its beer. It is located in a beautiful, highly walkable neighborhood called Hawthorne full of history, delicious food, and lots of convenience (easy to get around, lots of stores in the area). The proprietors were extra-sweet and quite honestly they have thought of absolutely everything to make your stay a comfortable and enjoyable one! The apartment has plenty of room, lots of local reading material, and great suggestions for food and activities. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

  Other than some gloomy November weather, our visit couldn't have been better. The owners were great to work with and check-in was a breeze. If you have a car and want to see more of pdx than downtown, this is the ideal place to stay. The Hawthorne/Belmont area is a great place to shop, eat, drink, and stroll. And with the free offstreet parking at the apartment, it's really easy to drive to other parts of the city should the spirit move you. The apartment is really well equipped and comfortable. While we didn't need to use the loft-bed space, it'd be great for kids! The main bed is super comfy and the seating area is really nice (we hosted visitors one night and it was really comfy). Only 2 small quirks worth noting: the bathroom is on the first floor and main living/bedroom area is on second. If stairs are an issue for you, fyi. The kitchen sink is also non-standard sized, so if you want to do a lot of cooking you may have a challenge washing big pots and pans. But, with so much good food around, there's little need to be cooking :) We were actually supposed to leave a day earlier, but couldn't help ourselves and ended up staying an extra day….staying here makes it hard to return to reality--the apartment. and location are so cozy and perfect that it's hard to return to reality. Really enjoyed the neighborhood -- Lucky Strike has the best Chinese food we've had in PDX, Hawthorne Hophouse has an impressive beer list, and Belmont Station...OMG...We might've spend our retirement savings; dangerous and delicious place (bottle shop and biercafe). We took our dog, and she too enjoyed the apartment and fenced yard, as well as some great dog walks at Laurelhurst Park and Mt. Tabor (both nearby). I wish I would've met the owners, but at the same time it's cool to have owners respect privacy (some VRBO owners can be really invasive:-). A great and much needed beercation.

  Owner response: Dear Kristin, thanks for the fantastic review. We hope to see you guys back here (it was nice meeting Jeff briefly and our pooch loved saying hi to Enid, but agreed, it'd've been nice to meet you too). We love when guests take full advantage of the Southeast neighborhoods (easily walkable/bus-able for those without cars) and fill up at as many tasty spots as you guys clearly did. As for the unit itself, glad you appreciated sinking into that Tempurpedic. And we're considering if that sink needs changing since in addition to all the great restaurants and food carts around here, it's great when guests take advantage of the full kitchen. Incidentally, not sure what we did to deserve this, but it's perfectly sunny this late November morning. Hurry back.

  Inn Beervana is a great place in a great neighborhood! It was easy to get to (public transit from the airport) and there were lots of great restaurants and brewpubs within walking distance to keep everyone happy. Brian and Kimberly have a clean and very pleasant apartment with more than enough necessities to make your stay comfortable. It was enjoyable to talk to Brian about various beers in the area and even some in my home Wisconsin. If you get the chance, take a walk to the Bagdad Theater and to the Back Stage Bar behind the Bagdad on SE 37th - that was our favorite bar the two days we were in Portland. Not a lot of taps, but the atmosphere will blow you away! When we get back to Portland someday, we'll look up Inn Beervana for sure!
