Very nice and comfortable space. The loft was fun. And very high up! Definitely a place for sober guests! The buzzy water heater was a curious mystery for a while. Happy it was pretty quiet when we were sleeping. It was a good place to stay.

convenient, quiet location

The guest cottage was in a great location. It was easy to get to many of the main attractions we went to in Portland, but still located in a quiet neighborhood. Martha was very accommodating and gave us good advice on local attractions to visit and restaurants that met our needs. The cottage itself had everything we needed and was a good size space for the two of us. Street parking was easy to find.

It was very, very dusty. Looked like it had not had a good deep clean in years. We went and bought supplies the first night so we could dust. Then we borrowed a vacuum. There were also ants in every room of the place. Other than that the place is pretty great. Nice and quiet

Cute Cottage Near Rose Quarter

This is a little gem of a VRBO property in Portland, less than a mile from the Rose Quarter. In the lovely and quiet historic Irvington neighborhood, the cottage is quiet, clean, and well appointed. The kitchen is especially nice, and we found all the essentials for preparing meals. The loft is fun and the bed was comfortable. We were blessed with nice weather, so the air conditioning was a bonus. Best of all, Martha is kind, helpful, responsive, and just nice to work with. As avid destination concert-goers, we would be happy to stay here again for another event at the Moda Center.

Nice place be prepared for a steep staircase

The cottage is immaculately clean and nicely decorated and the host is very nice. When I arrived I didn't realize how steep the staircase is and I was concerned about it. It was late and I decided I just wanted to stay on the downstairs pull-out sofa. I couldn't figure out how to open it. The owner was not available. I finally figured it out. I also could not get the light working next to the bed upstairs up the steep ladder in case I decided to stay there. And it was quite hot up there for me even though there is an air conditioner cool air was really not reaching up there and there was no fan. Anyway it all worked out in the end and Martha was certainly very caring.

A gem in Portland

This home is so nice and quiet. I came to visit my brother who recently moved to Portland, and there are so many small shops as well as restaurants in the area just a short walking distance. The weather was perfect and Martha is amazing. I will be coming back!

Cozy spot in great neighborhood

My husband and I had a couple of nights in Ptown and enjoyed the cozy cottage and its great location very close to all that makes Ptown so fun: coffee shops, restaurants, shopping, etc. Really loved the morning run in the neighborhood, too. Definitely come back.

Clean and separate space, funky layout, great location!

Our host was really communicative prior to our arrival so we could be specific with our planning... and then when we met her in person and she gave us great advice about local eateries.

Lovely, little home with all the amenities in a traditional neighborhood.

Martha provided a wonderful, quaint space. I enjoyed my stay and it was like being at home... I had everything I needed. My favorite experience was getting in my car in the morning and the neighbor across the street greeting me with a smile and hello.

Great stay in Irvington

The apartment was exactly as the pictures showed. Martha was so friendly and accommodating! She gave us great tips on restaurants. There were also visitor/tourist magazines in the apartment, so we could plan our eating adventures. It was like living in a hotel but with a full kitchen! We were close to the Alberta Arts District, but it was easy to get to other areas of the city. I would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone who would like to stay in a very nice neighborhood for an authentic Portland experience.

Peaceful and newer cottage for Portland area

The Irvington Cottage is a wonderfully charming and peaceful home close to downtown Portland. We walked in many directions for coffee, pie, groceries, and solitude. Marilyn is a very gracious owner and will provide guests with any recommendations!
