The owner thought of everything a renter might need. The location is perfect. Walking distance to many of the treats of Portland. The balcony was part of my daily experience. Charming and cosy. Owner very accessible for questions. Easy dedicated parking place was a real bonus. A great city, friendly people and a wonderful place to stay. We hope to return soon!!

Great location and a cozy place to stay! I was able to enjoy some unseasonably nice weather my first few days in at the "Pearl Pad." The two parks within a minute's walk and outdoor balcony were perfect for the last few sunny fall days. There are a ton of restaurants, cafes, and stores within a few minutes' walk (go to Ovation!), but I was far enough from downtown to not be overwhelmed by the hubbub. While the weather got worse the last few days of my trip, it was nice to watch the rain (and Netflix) from the big living room windows and pick up pizza from the place across the street. I'll be back!

Couldn't have asked for a better experience staying here. The owners were easy and pleasant to communicate with and when I arrived the place was spotless (not to mention gorgeous!). The location was perfect. Easy walking distance to most spots I wanted to walk to and right on a transit line if I wanted to head far. It was also quiet at night which was lovely and unexpected for somewhere so close to downtown. I also enjoyed the balcony- great for people watching and morning coffee. All in all, couldn't have asked for a better experience. I'll definitely be back!

We normally do not publish reviews, but felt Ann went above and beyond the call of duty for us. First she helped us get situated in her well stocked condo. And then we accidentally left a very important bag in the condo when we left and she promptly overnight-ed it to us. By the way the location is very convenient for exploring the Pearl District and the rest of downtown Portland. It has everything you need for a great stay! We highly recommend it.

Fun, clean, and nicely appointed with all the amenities, including bath robes, soaps, and shampoos. Kitchen is fully stocked with lots of dishes, stemware pots and pans. And bed is super comfy and huge! I loved walking along the river and hanging out in the nearby parks. But my favorite event was sitting on the balcony with coffee in the morning and wine in the evening! Watching the city wake p and watching the lights in the night! Thanks! We will be back!

The 'Pearl Pad' was the perfect place for our +five-week stay in Portland. It is comfortable, well-equipped and nicely-furnished. The balcony was the perfect spot to enjoy the wonderful summer weather. Unlike many places in the Pearl where you are staring at your neighbor a few feet away, there is a very nice, broad view over Tanner Springs park and to the West Hills and therefore lots of light in the condo. The Pearl is a vibrant, fun, very walkable neighborhood with everything you will need within a few short blocks--shopping, tons of restaurants, a Safeway and a Whole Foods-- but if you wish to go a bit further the streetcar stop is just outside your door. However, if you have a car as we did, the dedicated parking spot in the building is a definite bonus. Since we were the first guests, there ended up being a few things that needed attention such as an overly-sensitive smoke alarm, but Ann, the owner, took care of everything immediately, was always easy to reach, and a pleasure to deal with.

My experience here was perfect from beginning to end! Owners were pleasant and easy to communicate with and place was beautiful. Very clean, gorgeous view, and perfect location.
