About this property

Belmont/Hawthorne Urban Retreat

A few steps down from the garden patio and yard is this unique space in the heart of Belmont/Hawthorne. A clean, modern place w/ 9' ceilings, solar energy and radiant floors--part of a beautifully renovated, 128 year old house. Easy to walk, hop a bus, or grab a Car-to-Go to get anywhere in Portland. Straight shot to downtown, bus stop half a block in either direction. Enjoy a short walk to Hawthorne's unique shops, or walk a few hundred meters to the Belmont Dairy Block where you find a new, soon to arrive grocery store, and a handful of popular, new restaurants. Food carts are sprinkled throughout this fun neighborhood! Division and the newly popular SE 28th St. restaurants are close by. Please note: this space is a bedroom and bathroom with it's own outdoor entrance off the stone patio.

Deb was a great host! The room is so accessible to public transportation, easy to travel with or without a car. Walkable vintage neighborhoods nearby. A lot more perks than the listing mentions.The room was quiet and peaceful, no traffic noises inside. Deb warned us about the old floors squeaking above us, but it wasn't bad at all. The backyard area was a blessing and meeting the staff from the nearby business was a nice treat. Quirky Portland at it's finest.

This space was perfect for my needs for this trip. I wanted a clean, quiet, and comfortable home base where I could relax and decompress between all the vacation things. The place was really well maintained, clean, and cozy. The beds were comfy, and there were plenty of towels. The back garden was wonderful too! Deb was a really accommodating host. Questions were answered promptly, and I was even able to make last-minute changes to my stay without any issue. I really felt welcomed and like my experience was important to them. The location was super convenient. It was only 15 min from the airport, and walking distance to lots of good food and shopping. I especially enjoyed the attached retail space. There was always street parking available as well. I will absolutely be checking here first the next time I come to Portland!

The apartment was cute and clean; it had everything we needed and very comfortable! The location is great, close to many shops and restaurants but tucked up on the hill where it's quiet and felt very safe! The hosts were great as well - we would stay again!

Deb was always available to help me. I really like Deb and enjoy talking with her. The studio is always spotless when I get there and very cozy. Deb stocks it with all the necessities and some important extras, which I really appreciate because that's a bunch of stuff I don't have to pack. The location is wonderful - lots of shops and restaurants around and it's a pretty safe and quiet neighborhood. I always try to get this place when I go to Portland.

The perfect spot to enjoy Portland. Just a few blocks from Grand Central Bakery and Jam, where I had the most glorious breakfast. The darling little backyard was lovely. Super comfy beds and a great little kitchen for prepping snacks, and such accommodating hosts! Will definitely stay on my next visit.
