Location, convenience and great beds!

Three adult family members stayed here because there just was not much available in that area of Portland. It was a great choice. Clean, well accessorized and truly great beds. Owner was responsive and helpful. Check in and check out was a breeze. Wonderful Portland neighborhood at Overlook Park with views of the river and Barnes Heights.

Univ Portland Graduation Weekend

This house is so cute & comfortable - exactly as pictured. We stayed her for the weekend of graduation festivities at UP and the home was surprisingly close to campus! The neighborhood is very walkable, quiet and safe. We'll definitely be back! Thank you!

Best vacation rental we’ve ever had.

We’ve booked quite a few vacation rentals, and while they were all acceptable, this one knocked it out of the park. We’ve found our “go to” place when traveling to Portland.The amount of thought that went into creating this space is evident everywhere you look, from having everything you need (and things you might need, and things you probably don’t need but someone might), to more ephemeral aspects like good placement of light switches, plenty of outlets, and flooring that feels good under your feet. I really can’t imagine how this place could have been more perfect for us.The beds were comfortable, and having two separate bedrooms (that were truly separate, not split by a curtain or something) was excellent. And the second bedroom didn’t have bunk beds or some half-baked idea of a futon on a frame, it’s a proper queen-sized bed. The main bedroom (king bed) was large, with plenty of storage space, seating, and a door to a private deck.The bathroom is very nicely remodeled, with plenty of water pressure and hot water that didn’t run out. Laundry in the unit was a bonus because I forgot to pack some things and had to do laundry for a three-night stay (note to self: pack better next time). As I mentioned, everything we needed was there, the check-out asks weren’t onerous (put used towels in the bathtub, take out the garbage; that was all), and the host was gracious about us wanting to check out an hour later than the 10:00 a.m. standard (teens are hard to get going).

Views for days and morning coffee on the deck

Just the nicest place- second time here and I’ll be back. Comfortable beds, nice decor. Well stocked kitchen and modern appliances. A bottle of wine and some coffee/ creamer/sugar to get started always appreciated! Great neighborhood for walking and once I found the pedestrian bridge - coffee, bars and restaurants just a 10 minute walk away! Great communication.

Peaceful retreat

My sister and I greatly appreciated the convenient location and especially the quiet and serenity of the apartment and the neighborhood. I especially enjoyed the cozy nook with the high desk and adjoining window and the small balcony off my bedroom with a commanding view of the harbor. My sister's room also had a great view, and we both loved the entry way deck for morning tea in the sunshine. We are both grateful to have found this wonderful spot!

Great location…incredible view!

Such a clean, cozy and comfortable place to stay! The beds were wonderful and the apartment had everything we needed…even a first aid kit for my accident-prone son. The owners were great at communicating with us to ensure we were comfortable. We also felt safe in the neighborhood, which was a big worry of mine coming to Portland.

Getaway

My family recently stayed at this location after visiting me and they had a wonderful time! They were very happy with the fully stocked kitchen, which included a full fridge, making it easy for them to prepare meals just like at home. They enjoyed starting their days with coffee on the lovely outside balcony, where it was peaceful! The neighborhood was a highlight, especially during porch fest. Beautifully adorned with fruit trees, it was not only scenic but also had a welcoming atmosphere, thanks to the friendly neighbors. The air conditioning was much appreciated on hot days, and the beds were noted to be extremely comfortable, contributing to a restful stay. Although I didn’t stay myself, this is the feedback I received. I did communicate with the hosts and appreciate their great communication and flexibility. My family highly recommends this charming place for a comfortable and engaging escape!
