The house was conveniently located and had plenty of room for our group. It did look like the sheets in one room were dirty and had makeup spots. The roof also leaked rain into the kitchen.
Beautiful and thoughtful, well equipped. Great location. Nearby trolley only woke up one person but not really too loud and earplugs provided. Would stay again!
Lovely big house, plenty of room. Well equipped in the kitchen and bathrooms. Convenient for city centre and the waterfront, walking or using the bus,tram.
It was everything we could hoped for! Very clean property and everything worked. Nothing broken or out of place. Beautiful decor. Love the rugs. Location is the best! Thank you!
This is an excellent VRBO and we would certainly return. Beautuful house, well appointed, and easy check in and out. A real plus that's not listed, the TriMet stops literally outside the door of the house. Made it very easy to get around town and even better, to and from the airport for 5, what a deal!
Our recent stay here was great. The rooms themselves were incredibly spacious, providing ample space for our group to spread out and relax. A major highlight was that everyone in our party was able to have their own private room. Everyone wanted to stay longer.
Our team of 5 made a trip to Portland for a work event and team development. This home was a perfect place for us to have access to everything in the city while also having a home base for team connection, debrief space, and rest.
We had a great time. Four golfers in our 50's. Great place. Clean and well maintained. Close to campus so it was crawling with food options. Easy check-in / check-out. Thanks for a nice stay.
Wonderful host and would book again! The location next to the cheerful tortoise and food trucks is top notch. Groceries and transportation is a block away.Should be noted that this is a part of a duplex and that there is only one available free parking space. That wouldn’t deter us from booking again!

Great space, comfortable good for family
Here for a wedding, good place for family rendezvous. Close to transportation. Parking a challenge.
Not impressive from outside, but very comfortable and nicely furnished inside. Outdoor patios available. Beds very comfortable. Location close to downtown and streetcar. Beautiful rugs and accessories throughout the house. It met all our needs.
An absolutely stunning, spacious, welcoming, clean, impeccably equipped, charming home full of character and comfort! I wish it were mine! THE best rental home we've ever stayed in. The host is FABULOUS! I give this listing an 11/10!
We were a group of adult friends in town for a music workshop and had a great time. The location was convenient for us (there is light rail stop literally across the street), we found shops and restaurants nearby that met our needs and the neighborhood was fairly quiet. What we loved most was that the apartment was spacious and comfortable (just like in the photos) and we found everything we needed in the kitchen for coffee-making, cooking and serving our meals. Bedrooms were large with comfortable mattresses and bedding, with one on the ground level and three on the 2nd floor. However, the bathrooms are not handicap accessible if that is a requirement for your stay. The host offered many helpful suggestions too and responded quickly when I had a question. I would stay here again!
