The charm of living Downtown! 30 night minimum at a great price, full furnished.

I am a native Salemite and Oregonian! Born and raised right here, "this is my town"! I have talked my long time friends into letting me open their old nannies apartment up for people to stay in, another great space in the heart of the city for folks that want and need to be downtown! Voila, here we are off on a whole new adventure and loving it!

The Christopher Paulus building is listed on the National Registry of Historic Places in the United States. The building was built in 1917 by local bar owner, Christopher Paulus. Mr Paulus fell in love with a young Salem woman from a good family who refused to marry Mr Paulus as long as he owned and operated a bar room. Mr Paulus eventually sold his bar and built this building to satisfy his soon to be wife. The building has housed several businesses on the ground floor and until 1992 the upper floor was used as storage. The building was purchased by Carole Smith and Eric Kittleson in 1991 and fully renovated by 1992, when they moved into the residential space on the upper floor. The upper floor consisted of a large loft for the Smith/Kittleson's and their two small children, and they built an apartment across the hall for the children's nanny. After the children grew, the Smith/Kittlesons rented the apartment to local citizens until 2018 then it became a short term rental.
