We loved how much care the host took with the amenities. It was amazing. Nice sheets, really cozy pillows, amazing showers. Walking distance to almost everything if you like walking which we do. I couldn’t have asked for more! We will be back for sure.
We spent 4 nights in Portland and chose this house based mostly on the location. The house is basically brand new inside. It's beautiful, comfortable and bigger than it appears in thr pictures. Everything was in perfect condition, kitchen had everything we needed and the showers were fantastic...like a spa shower. We had some questions along the way and the owners were always quick to respond and offer suggestions for food and fun. I can't say a negative thing about it and would recommend it to anyone looking to stay in a fun part of Portland.
We LOVED our stay here!!! The home is STUNNING!!! Every detail has been attended to!! The interior is decorated beautifully, and the exterior of the home is so striking!! This is a true showpiece!! The kitchen is gorgeous and has every amenity one could ask for! We loved the double staircase leading to the second level where the bedrooms are located! The master bedroom and bath were absolutely lovely, and the master shower was incredible!! We have two teenagers, and the shared bathroom between the two guest rooms was very spacious!! No detail was overlooked!! The third floor has a HUGE playroom with ping pong table, TV and great seating!! The outdoor space was inviting and private!!! The location was great-close to lots of restaurants and shops!! Very easy walking distance to Providence Park!! I would highly recommend staying here-you will not be disposed!!!
