Nice place. A lot of stairs..place was clean with a lot of room .. communication was great. Neat little places to walk to for food. Need more kitchen supplies..more dishes , silverware and cooking items. No spat! Parking was terrible and unit shouldn’t list that it has parking. Plenty of laundry supplies and towels. Owner replies immediately to needs.

This was a charming, spacious & light- filled apartment in a convenient location. We really enjoyed the walk-ability of the whole area. There is an absolutely amazing farmers market on Saturday which is a 3 minute walk away. The only challenge, as was mentioned in other reviews, was finding street parking in the evening. We did manage to find a spot every time but the spaces were a few minutes walk away. It should not deter anyone just a heads up to be prepared. We very much enjoyed the space & the city.

This is an old house that has been divided into multiple apartments. I booked this place because we have an 18 year sold who likes to have his own room, he claims we snore (whatevs). We also like to drink our own wine in the evenings, and our own coffee in the morning. This place is not the ritz, but it was perfect for the three of us. Very clean, very well stocked, beds were super comfy, towels and pillows new! A big bay window gave a beautifully sunny morning, and the big living room allowed us to be together in the evening. We didn’t cook but the kitchen looked clean and well stocked. Parking was a bit difficult but the owner had warned us, it’s street only, but only once did we have to park a little ways a way. Busiest Parking times are after 5:00 so if you go out, just uber, it’s likely cheaper anyway since Parking is so expensive on commercial street (minimum of $25). Also, the stairs up to the apartment are narrow and old, not good for anyone with agility issues. I also left an item and the owner graciously agreed to send it to me! We loved our stay here.

We enjoyed our stay greatly. There is a lot of room in this apartment. The primary bedroom has a queen bed and second bedroom has a double bed. The beds are comfortable with nice linens and duvet. The owners anticipated every need. The first morning we woke to find a plethora of coffee and tea choices. A large dining room and living room with a sectional and a futon. All comfortable. We enjoyed looking at the folksy 70’s art prints. There are air conditioners in the bedrooms that kept the apartment comfortable. The owners stocked the apartment with hand soap, shampoo, conditioner, dish washing detergent, etc… They had basic spices along with sweetners. The owners were extremely responsive to any questions/requests. The apartment is located - two blocks from a park. - a few blocks from the West Promenade which has beautiful Manaions - less than two miles to anywhere you want to go. We parked our car for our visit and walked everywhere! Great brunch restaurants: Hot Suppa (Scrambala and Corned Beef Hash). and Bayside American Cafe (Lemon and Wild Blueberry French Toast (get one piece!) and Cinnamon Roll pancake) We had wonderful lobster rolls all over and visited lighthouses. What an incredible stay! Note there are two sets of steps to access the apartment. This was no problem for us and we really liked how the owners had the code locks on the house entrance and apartment. We will definitely stay here again. Portland is such a great city.
