I really enjoyed my stay at this VRBO. The house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing trip. The location was convenient but still felt private and peaceful.What stood out the most was how accommodating the host was. They were easy to communicate with and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience.I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a welcoming and comfortable stay, and I’d happily book again in the future!

Loved this home and its location. It was clean and more spacious than expected, with some thoughtful extras. Lots of nearby shopping, food, and coffee/tea options. However, with the king- size bed right up against the wall it was difficult for this 80 year old to crawl in. I saw that when I chose this, but thought we would be able to move the bed away from the wall enough for me to slide in.

Perfect Portland Getaway – A Hidden Gem!

Spent a quick three-day trip in Portland and stumbled upon this absolute gem! The location is fantastic, with plenty to explore within walking distance or a short drive. The space is exactly as pictured—welcoming and well-equipped. You enter through the kitchen/dining area, which has everything you need to cook and enjoy a meal. The living room flows into the bedroom without a dividing wall, so if kids are sleeping on the couches, just keep in mind there’s no privacy. That said, the room itself is spacious, with ample storage for clothes and a cozy couch to unwind. The bed? Super comfortable and easily accommodated my 6'3" frame. The bathroom is a good size, but the real star of the show is the shower head—hands down the best I’ve ever used! In fact, we loved it so much, we’re buying one for home. Just five houses down East, you’ll find charming shops and a variety of places to eat, sip, and experience Portland’s unique vibe. The Portland Bottle Shop offers a great outdoor space for people-watching, and Gino’s Restaurant & Bar served up one of the best filets I’ve ever had. Head West, and you’ll reach the river, where you can enjoy scenic bike and walking paths, river beaches, and plenty of activities to keep you busy. There’s even an amusement park on the grounds!

just steps away from the heart of the Sellwood neighborhood - and the provided parking space is a real advantage in such a busy area. Clean and easy access to everything we wanted and needed to be doing.

Portland weekend perfect location amazing landing pad

Sellwood neighborhood is beautiful, dense with both beautiful housing and giant trees but also every urban amenity. This home is quiet and cozy but just one block from the action.I think listing said studio but actually it’s tow rooms: an extremely well-appointed kitchen and a large living/sleeping area that easily fit us and our three adult children who would come over to lounge before dinner. Charming private back patio. Perfect.

Lovely location and set-up

The location near the park in one direction and the main street with bakery, coffee shops, restaurants, etc., is superb. The unit itself has a nice little kitchenette, sitting area, bath and space for a bed. The bed took almost the entire space in front of the bathroom, making a compromise between having a nice big bed but a very crowded space to get in and out. Communication from the owner was thorough and helpful.
