Southeast Portland Retreat!

We were in town for a traveling 3 day baseball tournament and were forced to find a place a stay on very short notice- stressful! Just about every hotel was booked so My Amazing Boss jumped into help me find this GEM of a location! Quiet neighborhood, friendly folks, dog walkers (we love dogs!), People jogging, very low traffic, street parking for our giant truck (we could easily see our vehicle through the window of our residence). We arrived late (due to the game schedule)

Great location and comfortable stay

This property is a convenient 5 min walk to coffee houses and restaurants. It is located in a quiet neighborhood. The space is well equipped and very comfortable for 2 adults. We were visiting family living in the areas and would definitely stay here again for another visit.

Comfortable Spot in SE Portland

We were in town for friends wedding and this place was a great home base for us. The space was set up very well for being a basement apartment. It was also super clean and comfortable. The location is really excellent, walking distance to many restaurants and shops on Hawthorne and Division. Also a short drive to many attractions and venues closer to downtown and the river.

Portland retreat

Overall the listing was as described. It was neat and clean. The only issue was that it was quite cold upon arrival and took awhile for the heating sources to adequately heat the unit. The same occurred the following day upon return after exploring Portland.

Convenience and amenities

Location was perfect for us. We made use of shops and restaurants on Hawthorne. It was close to our son's home. Our unit was equipped with excellent bathroom facilities, tv, fireplace, kitchen, lighting. A few complaints: sleeper couch was uncomfortable and bedding insufficient. As it was a basement unit, it seemed a bit dank.

A great stay in a great neighborhood

Everything was absolutely perfect, If you are not coffee drinkers... The coffee machine is very hard to use. It makes one cup at a time, and leaks, spilling outside of the cup and mixing ground with the brew (even when directions for its use are scrupulously followed).

Good communication, except.when I reported a dead rat at the entry door and was asked if there was something they wanted them to do and was there for 2 days. Obviously an AI generated response. Also, wish the door to my space could be locked when I went out for the day.

Fine, no frills.

Apartment was clean, a bit cold (December rental) but fine. Hated the coffee pot. Being the PNW, that was surprising. Between the cleaning fee and taxes, the daily rate is really not accurate. But that is a problem with the whole VR system.

Response from VrboOwner on 26 Jul, 2023
Hello Peter, I am glad you enjoyed your stay in Portland and were happy with the cleanliness of the apartment. Yes, it can be quite cold here in December, but luckily with the heaters it can help heat the space up. Sorry, you did not like the coffee pot, it is a pretty standard one. I am not sure what you were expecting as you mentioned from the PNW, but we have never had anyone ever complain about the coffee pot before or that it wasn't fancy enough? Lastly, yes, just like hotels there are transient lodging taxes that get added to every booking, but that is the requirement of the city, state and county. We do have a cleaning fee to pay the cleaner, but other than that the fees are out of our control and are on every listing. Anyway, we hope you come back and visit again, Happy Holidays!

Great location. Had microwave, mini fridge, coffee maker and they supplied coffee. Didn't have a toaster. Didn't have any regular glasses--did have wine glasses and coffee mugs though. Had a hot plate in a drawer but no pots or pans to use on it. Didn't have a kitchen table. Bed is in the kitchen area and the living area is around the corner with a fold out couch. Very little sound insulation between upstairs and our apartment. That was pretty bad on cleaning day but otherwise tolerable. Our apartment space was not secured. There was an outside combination lock entry that lets you in to the lower level, but no lock on our actual space. The upstairs people can come down through the house and we had no way to lock up our area--no key. We could lock it from the inside but could not lock or make it secure from the upstairs when we were gone. We identified the issue to the property management company the day after we arrived and they gave us the run-arround for 11 days (we stayed 17). The owner who lived upstairs was great when he found out and he added a lock in a timely fashion. The property management company, however, was terrible. We notified VRBO about a week in to our stay because the management Co. was so unhelpful, and VRBO just told us to be patient because it was the weekend. Thanks to the owner for fixing it, but they should re-assess their management company. We won't stay in places that use them in the future.
