Guest Comments:

'My husband and I were in Portland to surprise our daughter when her boyfriend asked for her hand in marriage! We were lucky to have found this charming little apartment for the week. It was just as the photos indicated - very nicely appointed and sparkling clean. It was in a prime location with great shopping and restaurants all within walking distance. The separate entrance was nice so that we didn't feel like we were intruding on our host family. Since we have a 'new family' in Portland, we will stay in this apartment in a heartbeat!'

'I had such a wonderful time staying in this apartment for the week. It was sparkling clean and had everything anyone could need while away from home. The neighborhood is perfect for walking. There are restaurants, shops, a library, coffee shops, bakeries, and a wonderful grocery store all within walking distance. I really hated to leave! The owner, Traci, is warm and more than accommodating!'

'At the last minute I decided to forgo staying at a hotel and my daughter found this lovely back of house apartment in the beautiful Sellwood neighborhood. It was perfect. Brand new accommodations in a quiet, tree-lined neighborhood where you could walk down the block and enjoy friendly crowd-filled coffee houses, antique stores, restaurants or discover that special organic-find at the local market. The apartment itself was doll-like, very clean (which I am fastidious about!) and could easily have been a model for a pottery barn ad. Perfect in every way. It was filled with everything you would need from coffee pots to silver ware should you chose to eat in. Lots of windows-making my morning coffee (provided by Traci of course) I could open the kitchen window and treat myself to fresh air to start my day. One unique and surprise feature was the heater nestled in the bathroom-a nicety you don't see very often and the bedroom was perfect-large, spacious closets and very comfy. The living room had a fireplace that was both warm and completed the feel of the apartment even if you did have to turn it on with a clicker. I highly recommend staying at this perfect rental and do so for a longer stay-I had only two nights and could have easily stayed for a week! Traci thought of everything and even provided us with a list of places to go and eat in her cardboard binder-she was a splendid host. I give it five stars!'

'My wife and I much enjoyed our stay in this apartment, indeed it is probably the best appointed and most elegantly designed apartment in which we have spent time (a week plus) in many years of travel. It has the advantage of being one of the few 'guesthouses' in Sellwood, so very well located for visitors such as ourselves coming to spend time with family living in that delightful area of Portland. And where else can you see Mt Hood through the kitchen sink window?!'

'The apartment is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. There was a perfectly framed peek-a-boo view of Mt Hood from the kitchen window. It seems newly completed and is located over the garage. The neighborhood has older homes and was great for walking and to many restaurants, Grand Central has coffee and great pastries nearby, Reverend's is delicious southern style BBQ about 2 blocks away, Gino's has a friendly neighborhood bar vibe with gourmet food. It was conveniently located a short (approx. 10 minute) drive to downtown Portland. The hosts were friendly and thoughtful.'

'Wonderful apartment! A brand new house - very very cosy, we did feel like home living there. It has anything you might need for a short or longer staying. Ken and Traci are perfect hosts and they did help us a lot to discover the neighborhood and Portland. We also never had a problem to park our car in front of the house - there was always a free space. Strongly recommended!'

Short memorable stay
This apartment is wonderful. It’s cozy, bright, clean and the hosts are very responsive. The neighborhood is darling and very walkable, with beautiful houses and gardens, close to parks, river views, and Sellwood shops and restaurants. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. This is a perfect place to stay if you are visiting a Lewis and Clark student. It’s close to the school and makes a great home base for taking the kids out.

Impeccable comfort and hospitality
We loved our stay at this beautiful property. Traci was kind, responsive and welcoming even though she and Ken were not in town for the days we were there. The apartment is very thoughtfully designed and decorated, with every comfort to make you feel at home. All of the finishes are of the highest quality, with detailed attention to what travelers need and didn’t even realize they did: reading lights in the right place, USB ports where they are super convenient, luxurious bedding, a cozy gas fireplace for cool days, and optimal use of natural lighting.We hope to return next time we are in Portland and can’t recommend this place highly enough.

As good as advertised
This upstairs apartment is sufficient and well-stocked. Bed is very comfortable. Shower/bath arrangements were good. Heating system was good. Didnt watch any tv, nor use the kitchen much, but it is well stocked. We know Portland and specifically the Sellwood/Moreland area. As a neighborhood with many nice features, it cant be beat. Will likely stay here again.

Cute, comfortable apartment
We were pleased to return to this apartment this year and have another opportunity to stay here. There are so many little welcoming touches. Fresh flowers, cozy fireplace, available coffee, and a very easy to work TV. It’s easy to reach the owner, but we felt as though we had complete privacy. During our stay we were safe and comfortable and respected.

Darn near perfect
Everything about our stay was fantastic. The hosts were very communicative and flexible. The unit itself is nicely appointed and decorated and felt like home. They thought of everything and even had good coffee. The location really can’t be beat. Our college student we came to visit loves Sellwood. That’s her hang out. So we were in the heart of a neighborhood she loves within walking distance to everything. I really wanna stop here because we want this unit to be available next time we visit. An easy five stars, top to bottom. Thank you to our hosts!

Cozy and charming
I loved this place. It was a perfect retreat while in town for an art workshop. Very comfortable, private, quiet, and clean. The apartment is located above the garage and has a private entry. The home and neighborhood is beautiful. The only hiccup, and it was minor, was a mixup in the access the first day. However, the host was on site and resolved it immediately. So, no worries. It is located in a cute downtown area and is very walkable. Try Kangaroo Coffee shop for morning coffee and the food trucks for a quick dinner. The parking is street parking. I was able to find a spot each evening within one block of the apartment. Easy access to Portland and many other nice communities. I would stay again and I recommended it to several Art friends.

It is a beautiful and very safe neighborhood. The apartment is spotless and seems like brand new. The bed is super comfy and the make down couch is great too. Our hostess kept us up to date and checked in with us periodically. We would definitely stay here again.

The apartment/unit in the Sellwood area of Portland was exactly as posted, and even better! The place was so clean, spacious and cheery. Traci was easy to communicate with - very responsive and thoughtful. The place is walking distance to some great restaurants and shops. So nice after a full day moving out son into college, to have to a number of food options within walking distance. We plan to come back and stay again!

Perfection
We don’t even know where to begin to sing praises for this exceptional VRBO property, and it’s host. Start with perfect walkable location in the most adorable Sellwood neighborhood, it’s cleanliness, it’s superb shower, comfy bed, favorite rocking chairs, heater in the immaculate bathroom, great fireplace, keyless entry, really strong Internet, and perfectly appointed living space — Traci has not forgotten any detail. The apartment is stocked with everything from olive oil and coffee to cushy towels and your choice of several styles of pillows! There is even a fridge with water and ice dispensers in the door. We visited in February and March, while Portland snowed and rained and hailed almost every day. We so looked forward to returning home to warm by the gas logs. Traci was more than accommodating to every question or request we had! The most gracious host! We will return again and again to visit our grandchildren (as long as I can climb the stairs to this private and quiet getaway)! Couldn’t have been happier.

Sellwood gem
We came to the area for a family event. My husband and I stayed in this lovely, quiet, clean well appointed apartment above the garage behind the family’s home. The location is wonderful with restaurants, coffee shops, markets, stores and even a library branch nearby. The area has a small town feel even though it is close to busy Portland. We were able to find street parking but I wouldn’t say an abundance of spots. Somehow we managed to find the last spot nearby every time. The owner was very good with all necessary communications. We would stay again if we find ourselves back in the area.
