Eliot neighborhood was originally built as the separate town of Albina in the late 1800s. It's one of the oldest neighborhoods in Portland, and is undergoing mixed revitalization. Workers used to take a ferry across the river to work in the city of Portland. Many helped build the seawall. Now, Eliot is one of the closest 'inner' neighborhoods in town. This is a great walking and biking neighborhood. It is home to great restaurants and coffee shops & event venues. Blocks from freeway access and downtown.

Amazing property with great location. Rocio was fantastic at keeping in touch & checking our needs. Location was perfect.
This property was spotless and very well appointed. The linens get an A+. The location worked well for our time and purpose in Portland. We loved coffee on the deck in the morning and wine in the evening. The claw foot tub is terrific but not for older people. Having the washer and dryer was wonderful. My only concern is the lack of a handrail going down the steep stairs to the basement to wash. Adding a handrail would be a definite plus. I would stay again
My stay here was perfect for a conference I was attending at the Oregon Convention Center. It was an easy, 15 minute walk to the convention center and the neighborhood was decent to feel safe enough doing so. Very well kept, easy check in/out process since I was flying in/out at weird times of the day. You could hear the people living upstairs at night but it really wasn't too disturbing, glad I found this house for my stay in Portland!
The property manager is very helpful and responsive. The property was well kitted out. Having coffee in the house after late evening arrival was really appreciated. The garden is a lovely place for a slow start to the morning. We would definitely recommend this property.
Close to Hwy 99. Not much of a noise problem but when big trucks go by the house shakes. Great restaurants nearby. We had steak at Ox and Ethiopian at Queen of Sheba. Transit a block away.
A wonderfully clean and comfortable home in a great location for the convention center - not to close and not too far. A nice 10-15 minute walk to start and end your day.
My husband and I have been staying in VRBO properties for over ten years both in the states and abroad. This property is the best one to date. It is clean, spacious, comfortable, very well equipped and in a great location (if you like neighborhoods.) Julie and Rocio were extremely attentive and flexible re: check-in/check-out times. This was our first trip to Portland. Beforehand I asked Julie for to do recommendations for both the city and its environs. She was incredibly gracious in responding quickly and extensively. Our visit was limited to only 5 days. We followed several of Julie's recommendations which included dining experiences, hiking and a trip to the coast. We were not disappointed. Our only regret is that we did not have enough time to do more! I highly recommend this rental.
We travelled to Portland for meetings at the convention center & managed to find this little gem of a house for our stay. Initially we were slightly disappointed when we caught first sight of the house. The house itself is as pictured, but the neighborhood and adjacent buildings look a bit ragged (it’s a bit in need of revitalization), but as soon as we got inside we fell in love with this little place. The kitchen is very well stocked , bathroom is much larger than expected for a home this size—loved the claw foot tub—The leather pull out sofa wasn’t very comfortable for sitting, but no worries—the weather was beautiful & we spent all our time outside on the back deck overlooking our private tiny garden. The only suggestion we could offer our host would be to spend a bit of time tending the garden since it’s showing neglect—overall, we loved our HomeAway experience & will definitely do this again.
This very nice, clean & spacious apartment is just a short walk from your choice of Portland's amazing public transportation (streetcar, metro, buses). There also are a number of great restaurants & brew pubs just blocks away: we recommend Izakaya Kinchinto, Pine State Biscuits, Ex Novo--there are more!) We were worried about the heat wave happening during our stay but there is an air conditioner in the bedroom. Enjoy.
We loved the back patio, nice kitchen space, hardwood floors, comfortable bed, and air conditioning in the bedroom. Was very clean and comfortable. Would definitely stay here again.
