3 Mi to Downtown Portland: Lush Flat w/ Fire Pit

The property and amenities were reasonably fine. The place is roomy and was decorated for the holidays. A nice touch. The landlord is living upstairs and was quite attentive. The very big issue is road noise from Interstate 5. If you are at all sensitive to traffic noise in the yard, in the apartment, while sleeping, as I am, you might want to try another property. We had a five night reservation. We left after only one night because of the traffic noise. Very disruptive to our trip. The landlord was understanding and that was helpful to us as disappointed renters.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The space was welcoming and the host's were very thoughtful. The outdoor space was divine (even with it raining most of the time!). We were able to walk to the bus stop and get downtown very easily.

We had a lovely stay. Dora greeted us with a gorgeous plate of baked goods. Backyard was beautiful, lush, and well-maintained. The kitchen equipment left some room for improvement, but we're big on cooking, and most people on vacation probably aren’t using the kitchen as much as we did. Would absolutely stay here again!!

We are a family of four and loved how this place was set up for kids. We had a couple rainy days and utilized the board games, paper for coloring, children’s books, and the snacks were a big hit. We found our location was close enough to downtown Portland and Multnomah Village (great food, shops, and toy store in this area). The freeway noise is fairly loud when outside (we already knew about this before our stay), but it didn’t stop me from enjoying coffee outside in the mornings in the beautiful, lush garden. Also, we found the house was well insulated and road noise was not a noticeable issue when inside. Dora was very helpful during our stay and provided excellent communication when we had a power outage. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

House was amazing beds were really controllable and soft would totally recommend nice place

Dora is a wonderful host! The Urban Escape Portland was perfect for our group—it met all our needs. The central location was ideal for our trip, and thoughtful touches like the private entrance, dedicated parking spot, welcome goodie tray, available snacks, and comfortable beds made our stay especially enjoyable.

Loved the space. Very close to highway so outdoor firepit that was listed likely should not be as the outdoor area was very loud. I am a country mouse though so city noise may not bother others.

Cozy flat at the end of a dead end street. So pretty much no street noise. Flat was as described. Fire pit is nice but it was raining most everyday we were there which is no surprise as we also live in the PNW. I would say that having the grass mowed low might have made me slightly more inclined to try the fire. Was very nice to have wood supplied. I-5 South is just down the hill from the back yard. And while it can not be well seen it is well heard when out side. The flat is reasonably laid out. TV works great WiFi is reasonable. Come, and you can go to a different store. Property manager was very accessible. Would stay again.

The bed in the main bedroom is so comfortable - I wish I knew the brand of pillow.

Very quaint, perfect for three of us. The location was perfect. We would highly recommend this property to our friends.
