This is a great location in Portland -- walking distance to the Rose Test Garden, the Japanese garden, restaurants and a high-quality grocery store. The living space was very private, clean and comfortable. The host was easy to communicate with. It is a residential neighborhood (lovely to walk around) with a lot of cars on the street. The host provides a parking pass, which was helpful. Be patient when driving around to find parking,,,but we never had to park too far from the house. We rented a car because we were also traveling other places. But if you are only staying in Portland, there would be convenient public transportation to downtown. If we were to come here again, we would definitely pick this place.

About the host

Hosted by House on Ardmore

Host profile image

We love travelling, trying different food and activities, and meeting new people.
We have done backpacking, driving across from North to South America as well as travelling overseas and within USA, from cheap to luxurious.

We speak fluent English, Arabic and Japanese.

We look forward to have people staying at our place.

Why they chose this property

We only wanted buy a house within two blocks of where we are.
Because, it's located on a very quiet street in a safe and the most desirable neighborhood in Portland.
You can walk to evrywhere even downtown Portland is less than a mile walk and Washington Park is like our back yard. NW 23rd Avenue is also only 2 blocks away.

There are so many excellent restaurants, cafes, bakeries, delis and too many good things to mention around here.

We did not have a car and we did not need it because everything was walkable.
