Super Cute!
I loved my stay in the Tiny Red House, it is super cute and at the back of an amazing garden. The Alberta neighborhood is safe and very walkable with great outdoor spaces for dogs if you happen to have one or two. Great restaurants and coffee shops are also nearby, plus easy to get to downtown as well. I would stay here again!

The beauty of this place was healing
The red gem was one of the best places we have stayed at. It was artistic, functional and friendly. And wow what an assortment of walkable restaurants and night life! And if you just want to stay and cook, it has all you need. We would certainly stay again.

Hidden gem!!
We loved our stay at the small cottage. It was like being in the middle of a lovely garden.We were walking distance to restaurants in the Alberta district. Very comfortable accommodations with every thing you need. There isn’t air conditioning but plenty of fans so we never felt it was hot. I highly recommend renting this place for a fun location in Portland

Cute little place
If you want a true Portland experience, this is your place. Funky little ADU located in the back of a residence. Better for one person or a couple … the pull out couch is really uncomfortable. The hosts are located on the property and are super helpful. Solid, safe place in a great location.
