The Neighborhood:
The home is located in the heart of the historic "St Johns" neighborhood, in Portland OR. This neighborhood is a local favorite and a great place to experience the heart and soul of one of Portland’s favorite neighborhoods. The river and Forest Park to the West, Downtown Portland to the South, you will be in the center of the action! St Johns boasts quaint little coffee shops, restaurants and unique shopping. There are a variety of restaurants, pubs, breweries, candy/ice cream shops, bike shops, and a convenience store within 5 blocks of the home. Just across the bridge from Portland’s iconic Forest Park with miles of single track running, hiking and mtn biking trails. The Forest Park trail system connects all the way to NW Portland and Washington Park, home of the Oregon Zoo, Portland Japanese Garden and the Rose Garden. Only 10 minute drive to Downtown and 20 minute drive to the PDX Airport. St Johns is an eclectic North Portland neighborhood with it`s own town center and rich History. The neighborhood retains its small-town charm with it’s “Plaza” or town center, where events such as the weekly, Saturday market are held. Spring thru Summer the local Farmers Market is every Saturday. Annual St Johns Parade, St John`s Ale Fest and the Cathedral Park Jazz Fest are a must! Pack a picnic blanket for an afternoon in Cathedral Park, cross the picturesque St. Johns Bridge (Portland’s most photographed bridge) and get ready to explore a lovely, lesser-known side of Portland.

Getting Around:
St Johns is a few blocks from University of Portland, approx. 10 minutes to NW Portland/NW 23rd Neighborhood, and The Pearl District, less than 15 minutes to Downtown and Sauvies Island. Location is 20 min to PDX and to Vancouver WA. The neighborhood can easily be navigated without a car. The Bus or UBER is a good option if you don`t plan to bring a car. There is a bus stop within 2 blocks and it is easy to cycle or walk to local amenities. It is quite possible to never leave the neighborhood and have plenty to do and see! Once you get downtown you can use the MAX light rail to get all over Portland Metro

Meh
The space itself was very nicely renovated;however, found the bathroom had some mildew issues with small black bugs flying around as well as towel hanger broken. Promoted as having ac which it did not only fans. Did give heads up on overhead noise but has not been properly insulated between units and upstairs is rented out as well so little control on noise which was exceptionally loud even for our own kiddos. Directions for door was somewhat confusing. Area was definitely mixed and/or up and coming with a ways to go. Not where I would want to stay with a family.

Check-In was easy with a message from the property. The place was not clean. There was dust and cobwebs everywhere. Almost haunted house creepy. The location was next to the Park which was great, but the area was less than desirable with people living out of their cars and homeless within a block of the property. Not recommended for families. The property had everything advertised with a. Full kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, and living room; however a the patio set was extremely old and weathered so it was unusable. This property is in the basement of a house which was obviously rented out as different vehicles and group sizes were in and out, but no one bothered us. Overall, it’s an OK place to stay if you don’t have a family or mind an unclean property.

Perfection -- unless you are tall
This property is a delight -- unless you are very tall! So convenient to our family and all that St. Johns and Portland has to offer, wonderfully designed, decorated and equipped. We particularly liked the king sized bed, the luxury of in-unit laundry, and the abundance of cozy throws. However . . . The ceilings are quite low throughout the unit, and are even lower in some areas because of the support beams, to the degree that my 6'6" husband would hit his head unless he ducked. Nonetheless, we highly recommend this property for "normal sized" people.

Chic and comfortable apartment!
Husband and I had a great time Memorial Day weekend at this chic, comfortable and immaculately clean basement apartment! Was nice to have a bedroom, living room and kitchen- we didn’t cook anything but the kitchen has all the supplies to do so if you want- we did use the table to play board games!
