Really great neighborhood - and fun to be a little outside of the downtown - but still walkable to beautiful parks and coffee shops.

Beautiful, well-equipped apartment in a great neighborhood. We were a family group of three adult sibs and an elder mom, so we had plenty of space to stretch out. We walked to coffee, breakfast, the Promenade. Kathy is super-nice :)

I stayed at this property with my family of eight, all adults. It was very comfortable, clean and had a lot of personality in the decor. We enjoyed the beautiful garden outside for morning coffee. The location was ideal for exploring Portland. We could walk almost everywhere. The host was easy to access and communicate with. I would happily stay there again! Thanks

We had a delightful time staying at this property! It is so nicely appointed and furnished with surprisingly high end accents. The living area was spacious and great for our group. The bedrooms were comfortable and equally spacious. The location is unparalleled, parking is super easy, and the host was very communicative. I would absolutely recommend staying here and would stay here again!

We were very happy with our stay. The space was very clean and spacious with plenty of room for the 4 guests we had but I'd expect it could even fit more people comfortably. Another main benefit was the proximity to downtown. We walked there and back on both days of our stay and it was great. Would definitely consider staying here again for our next Portland trip!

Very cool property with space for everyone! Kitchen is well appointed and had everything we needed (we didn’t really cook meals but sure seemed like it had everything you’d need to do so). The location was amazing. Very close to the Eastern Promenade (which is an amazing park with walking trails but also just a great place to picnic with a beautiful view of the bay).

Clean and loved how the place was decorated. The host was great and responds quickly. Close to old port and ferry. Only on street parking available for our rental which was only a challenge one day we had to park a couple blocks away. 4 rooms so spacious for a group. Is an older home so you can hear people from upstairs unit, but was not a bother. I would stay here again!

Delightful Home!

This spacious apartment in a very nice neighborhood was perfect for our group of four women. We each had our own comfortable bedroom and enjoyed the large living room with plenty of space to sit and relax. The outdoor patio was a bonus and we enjoyed the flower garden. The house was very well located to the things we wanted to do in Portland and the Street was very quiet. Highly recommend!
