Alberta has it ALL!

I can’t say enough nice things about this property. The manager is kind and attentive, and the home had every amenity you could want. It felt lived in, not like a cold, sterile rental. The location is PERFECT and was within walking distance of every type of cuisine your heart could possibly desire. If you’re coming to Portland, stay here. Full stop!

Lovely Portland property

This house is lovely. Super clean, all the kitchen items you could need, great location. Owner let us check in a few hours early. My only issue was that the owner lives right next door and was a bit in our business the entire week. She was watering plants in the backyard on day 2, spoke with many of my family members and friends on the porch throughout the week. She was pleasant, but I found it weird to have her right there the whole time.

Great host and location

Extended family were in town for a wedding and wanted to stay together. This place was ideal - 7 of us fit very comfortably in the house and Belladonna was a great host. The location was great - It was a short walk to coffee shops and a choice of restaurants. An added bonus was that it was very close and convenient to the airport (as several of us had early morning flights!).

Terrific place!

This place was terrific! We had a group of family & friends in for several days for our daughter's wedding. The place was clean & fresh with many thoughtful little touches to make our stay comfortable. The finishes - tile, paint & wallpaper - were of good quality and added fun little touches everywhere. The neighborhood was walkable, with restaurants, coffee shops, and a very nice market nearby. The host, Belladonna, was welcoming and concerned to make our stay special. We would definitely recommend this place for any larger group.

Spacious, Amenities and Location

Our group of 10 booked this house for MLK wknd. We absolutely loved the space (3 levels of rooms and living space, all exactly as described), the location was super convenient to Alberta Arts and cost only 15-20 to grab an Uber or Lyft to Downtown/Pearl, and the amenities allowed us all to make home cooked meals and do some laundry. Loved the Homer Simpson bathroom! Everyone made sure they took selfies with him! Wouldn’t hesitate to rebook it again if we’re back in town and it’s available

Bella has provided everything we could have looked for!

We were three couples using the property. Each of us had their own level with a king bed and either one or two full baths. The house provided us with space to be together as well as privacy for showering, sleeping, etc. Two levels each had an extra bedroom with a pair of twin beds which we did not need, but seemed great if there were families. The lower level was at street level....not a basement. It had its own entrance, kitchen, laundry facilities. An indoor staircase connected it to the rest of the house. Great property.....walking distance to a GREAT bakery and other eating establishments. WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PROPERTY
