This lovely efficiency apartment was perfect for my weekend in Portland. It was extremely clean and comfortable with a well appointed kitchen. Check-in could not have been easier with parking right on the premises. The host was welcoming and quite flexible with my scheduling needs. A number of restaurants and a full service grocery store within walking distance were extra bonuses.
