Beautiful Location

Fantastic location within walking distance of the Pearl District. Very nice owner that contacted me the day before our flight to confirm lockbox codes and parking. We had a wonderful stay. Thanks!

Excellent Condo with a Great Riverfront View

We had a great stay at the condo while attending a conference for a week. Convenient, waterfront walkway to the convention center, downtown, or to transit if you need to get out further. Condo was nicely furnished and well-kept. Will definitely book again the next time we're in downtown Portland.

Great downtown location - clean and comfortable on the riverfront.

I was attending a convention in downtown Portland, so this condo was located in a great place for me. The condo was clean and comfortable, with nice outdoor seating to appreciate the river traffic and activity on the riverside trail. Sunita made herself available by phone anytime and was very attentive to any questions that we had. If you like running, biking, walking along the riverfront trail, it's right outside the door. The unit is located within a short walk of Portland Union Station and the MAX rail stop next to it, so using public transportation around Portland is easy. Covered parking was very convenient across from the unit and was greatly appreciated with the congested public street parking. We'd recommend this property to anyone who would want a nice place to stay in the heart of Portland.

WHY DID I EVER STAY IN A HOTEL?

I would like to first apologize to Sunita for the delay in writing this review... I recently vacationed in Portland with my boyfriend and my parents. This was our first trip to Portland and it couldn't have been better! This condo is in a great location. Not only does it backup to the river, but it is walking distance to downtown Pearl and other great neighborhoods. If we needed to venture further, we simply hopped on the PDX public transit. It was so incrediblty convenient. Advice to future renters: download the public transit app on your phone. You simply type in your destination and the app will advise of the best transit route. We did not rent a car, except for 2 days when we hiked the Columbia River Gorge, which was only about a 45 min. drive. In addition to the great location, this condo had just about everything we needed, including a washer/dryer. It was so convenient to have a fully stocked kitchen, minus the food, of course. We walked to a grocer on day 1 and stocked up on a few essentials. Sunita was also kind enough to provide us with Portland's famous Stumptown coffee and some other yummy snacks. I must say this was a much better deal than staying in a hotel! Not only did it have the necessary amenities, but the price was simply lower than any hotel that I was able to find. With all of that said, I think the ONLY downfall was that the upstairs master suite did not have a door. This was really only an issue if the upstairs guests wanted to go to bed before others in the group. The sound seemed to carry. This was a very minor issue and we were able to resolve the issue with ear plugs. Thank you again, Sunita, for your hospitality. We will definitely be back!

All the bases covered.

This property has all the basics you want on a long stay whether with a family or friends. It's not flashy inside but is comfortable and well equipped. There are certainly places for improvement but for the money you can't beat it. The location is great with a covered parking spot. The complex has a communal grill right outside if you feel like grilling. Walking distance to the train station, easy access to I-5. Lots of food options you can walk to. Owner is great to interact with.

River view from a comfortable condo

This 2-story 2bdrm loft condo is furnished with everything you would ever need. The beds were comfortable. We felt safe and it was a quiet group of residents. The view of the river is beautiful and the walkway is very nice. Rainbow lights reflect in the water from the Moda Center every night. There are squirrels running around everywhere. The owner was a true pleasure to deal with, was available, but we were given complete privacy. We stayed for several months and really felt at home.

Great location, clean, easy walk to Pearl

We were here for a little over two months while my daughter was at a local clinic. The property is beautiful and well maintained with a small grocery and restaurant basically on site. A pedestrian bridge right across the street takes you direct to the Pearl district with tons and tons of dining and shopping as everything is starting to open back up. Washer and drier worked great as did all the kitchen appliances. Everything was well maintained. The view of the river from inside and on the two decks is right across from Moda Center and Steel Bridge. The lights on Moda at night were fun, and there was always something going on to watch in the river. Property felt very safe and the parking slot was super convenient. Sunny the property manager was extremely responsive and helpful. We would definitely stay here again!

Perfect for Portland

The waterfront condo was a perfect location for coming home after days of touring, wine tasting, and hiking in Portland and the surrounding areas. The bed was as comfortable as home, and probably one of best available through VRBO we've ever stayed. Super clean and quiet. We made easy dinners a couple of nights with a well appointed kitchen. Great views of the river and fun to watch the rowers, boats and crusiers pass by. There is a walking path that follows the river and is a short distance to downtown. We'd recommend a couple of places to eat that were fun experiences and delicious food - LeChon (Tapas) and Little Bird (French Bistro). Voodoo Dounts is hip, loud and sweet. Downtown is cool, but make the trip to Multnomah Falls and Thunder Island Brewery in Cascade Locks. The views were stunning. Though we didn't meet Sunita, we are thankful for sharing such a wonderful condo with us!

Convenient location but across the river from industrial area

Nice, clean condo and responsive owners. Got everything we need in the condo (except for a dining table). The main down side is that it's right across the river from industrial area and the view outside was a bit depressing. We ended up not using the decks at all - there are no chairs outside. The main reason we got this condo was its waterfront location so we were a bit disappointed.

Awesome location, pretty and comfortable

As some others have mentioned, there was some train noise and an occasional delay waiting to leave the neighborhood when a slow train was crossing, but we loved the place. Clean, quiet and lovely little view with a great walking/running path just outside.

Portland vacation

Perfect location. Our 30 yo son was with us and he has the privacy of the entire 2nd floor. We had the master bedroom on the 1st floor. River view from the deck. Easy access to the the riverside paved trail that we walked each morning. Central Portland is less than a mile away. Plenty of space and comfortable furniture and beds. The only negative was the very squeaky sound of the trains even though they were half a mile away. They were running all night which is a good Econiomic indicator that freight is moving but at times challenged my sleep but did not bother my wife or son. Finally our flight was delayed and we did not arrive until after midnight. It was difficult to find the apartment because the street address is on the major avenue while the community is on a small street closer to the river. I suggest better directions to turn into the security gatehouse.

The place is on the waterfront and has a nice jogging path along the waterfront with easy access. Plenty of great food nearby too. A great place to stay in Portland!

This was an excellent property to enjoy all that the city of Portland has to offer.

I was very pleased with this property. It was clean, well maintained, and met all expectations. It's location can't be better... minutes to the Moda Center, downtown Portland, the Saturday Market, and pretty much any location/event in Portland. The owner was very pleasant and communicative, and there were no issues with any aspect of our interaction(s). Overall, I would highly recommend this property!!!

Comfortable and Clean Place

My sister and I enjoyed our time in Portland, usually walking for miles every day. The path along the river is a great place to start your walk into the downtown - either way will get you started. The beds were comfortable, and having two bathrooms meant we each had our own space.

Amazing

Very clean and awesome location! Yes, you can occasionally hear the train...but we loved it. You can walk anyway. Great view of the the river and if you are a walker or runner, as I am, right out the door for a great walk or run. Slept awesome all night. Two levels to sit outside ad enjoy the river and the outdoors. Highly recommend. The beds are super comfy and everything was there in the kitchen.... I would go back ...
