Portland, Oregon
Located in the heart of downtown Portland this top floor corner loft will be your comfy base for enjoying all that Portland has to offer. Walk score of 98 allows you to explore the city without a car. The loft is located on the Portland Street Car Line with easy access to all corners of the city including transportation to and from Portland International Airport. The top floor loft was remodeled in 2006 and features granite countertops, stainless steel gas appliances, vaulted ceilings with skylights. The loft floor plan offers privacy as well as being open and bright with tons of natural light from the windows and skylights. The loft comfortably sleeps 4 with one queen pillow top bed and one full size pull out sofa sleeper in the living room. Fully equipped kitchen, comfy sofa, and 40in. High definition TV is truly your home away from home. Elevator access or use the stairs. Please call for availability!
The loft is located in a great spot in downtown Portland, perfect for those who really want to experience city life. There are great views of the city in two directions through the many windows. The proximity of the streetcar makes it easy to zip in different directions--you can be at Powell's famous bookstore in just a few minutes or head to the waterfront in just as short a time. Everything is close by. The loft is equipped with a wood-burning fireplace that heats the place up fast and makes for a wonderful atmosphere, especially when it's raining outside. The claw-foot bathtub was deep and comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need to make a full course meal, but with so many unique restaurants nearby I rarely ate indoors. This place was a true gem and I enjoyed my stay very much!
Nice and clean room close to the street car route.
It's a nice little loft. Definitely a good and walkable downtown location. If you come to Portland without a car, you will get along fine, but if you bring your car, know that you will have to find your own parking. There's a lot across the street that is easy to use for overnight parking. Also, it probably won't make a difference if you aren't coming to town during an August heat wave, but the air conditioning unit could get the loft close to comfortable, but still on the warm side for my husband. And the washer is great, but without a dryer, laundry was hard.
Pros: downtown location, comfortable bed, near food store, apartment gets good natural light; iron and ironing board; blow dryer, washing machine; across the street from a metered parking lot. Cons: not comfortable for eating in the kitchen as stools are too tall for counter; dryer is in the basement and requires coins; the tub/shower is uncomfortable to use; there is no dresser to put your clothes in, so you must use your suitcase.
Nice floors, stove, good space for 1 or 2 people, but too cozy for 3. Hallways smell funny. Floors were really creaky. Fridge is nice and ceiling light in living room area doesn't work. Nice to have kitchen utensils available. Not bad.
This is a great flat in the heart of Portland. We were there for the marathon. We were able to walk everywhere even with the slight rain. Slept three comfortably. Everything was in working order, clean, and as Shawn described. Our 8 year old son loved the old school elevator in the building. Close to grocery, restaurants, and food truck row. Walking distance from the art museum. Great property.
Great central location in a character building. Ideally placed to explore Portland. The apartment is spotless and has a high standard of amenities, with a super comfy bed for a great night's sleep. Thanks for letting us enjoy your loft!
Apartment is ok, yet is noisy and with a lot of light. Bed matress soft bending a bit in V shape so it was hard to sleep overall. All in all for price charged we would have rather stayed somewhere else.
We enjoyed our sta. Space is perfect for a couple. Bathtub a bit hard to navigate since I do not have full mobility in my left leg but not a big problem. Shawn responds very quickly to questions or concerns. Would stay again if we come back to Portland
The property is exactly as pictured. It's smallish for an apartment--especially for an extended stay--but definitely more room than you'd get in a Portland hotel. We prepared no meals there but we could have--the kitchen was well stocked. The WiFi was convenient. This building is a walk-up and, though there is an elevator (it's one of those dated, gated kind), you'd make better time just taking to the steps--not a detractor for us, but those who don't wish to climb stairs might not like the other option either. The unit was mostly clean, especially the bathroom (A+). There is a washing machine located in there, but no dryer--keep that in mind. The missus didn't care for the shower, mainly because it is an antique tub with a full curtain enclosure. The shower liner does cling to you as you bathe, but I myself didn't find it all that annoying--again, it depends on your preferences. I reminded her that at least the bathroom is clean, with plush towels, and a tub drain that isn't clogged---something that you don't always find in a more expensive hotel. What I wasn't happy with was the ceiling fan. It had a major dust collection on each blade--not good. I cleaned them for us and the next guest, perched atop one of the kitchen stools. The micro-blinds, too, need more regular attention--awful dingy. I did wipe those down some, but not nearly as thoroughly as they needed. And finally, when I checked the filter for the floor AC unit, it was abundantly caked with lint. I wiped and rinsed that as well so the unit could function optimally. Though I don't mind doing these things because I do them at my home, I shouldn't have to. The owner needs to have a firm talk with his housekeeper or promptly find a new one--the status quo will not do. I'm supplying 4 stars because it truly is a charming (and, yes, stylish) unit that's offered at a great value. You won't be disappointed but, at present, there's good reason for that missing fifth star.
