I stayed at the unit for a small working vacation and to visit friends in the area. the wi-fi worked perfectly well for my work requirements. The place was clean and well appointed. It had everything I hoped for, and the laundry facilities were a bonus. It is well located for walking (or short drives) to restaurants. Accessing the unit was easy and convenient. I would definitely recommend staying here to family and friends.

Great, quiet location! Safe! We took the bus to and from the convention center everyday and never felt unsafe. It was convenient. We also walked from the convention center to the apartment. Longer walk but it allowed us to explore the neighborhood. Our hosts were kind and discrete! I would recommend for a business or family vacation.

Cottage in Portland

This property is the nicest cottage I've ever stayed in. It's very well appointed with things you might need, especially in the kitchen and bathroom. We didn't do any cooking but easily could have. It's lovely, nicely furnished with comfortable furniture and beds, just a very well designed cottage. Exceptionally clean. Love the Portland-themed decor and the books and brochures were helpful. The owners are lovely people. My family and I highly recommend this place.

A VRBO that exceeded my expectations; I will be back!

The hosts have thought of everything. Great amenities; fun little surprises. And no rules book that makes you feel as if you are in second grade being yelled at by the teacher before you even do anything wrong. Said another way, guests are treated as adults and that's a welcoming experience. Perfect location; quiet neighborhood. Easy walking to lots of high quality food and coffee. This VRBO has now become my go-to place when visiting Portland. Thank you hosts!
