Quiet, simple and clean. Wood floors. New carpeting. Sometimes you can hear the birds from across the canal. Unit has a shower in a compact shower stall.



It has a brand new refrigerator and compact range. It has a very firm futon that might be uncomfortable for some guests to sleep in, but we have a mattress pad provided for the 3rd guest or for people who sleep separately.



The property is located in a neighborhood that has both long-term residents and some areas that are still improving. While many of our guests have enjoyed their stay and felt comfortable, we want to be transparent so you can make the best decision for your trip. The home itself is clean, well-kept, and equipped with everything you’ll need for a comfortable stay.



Guest Access:

The whole apartment is available for the guests to use.



The address and code for the digital keypad will be texted to you a few days before check-in.



Please do not check in before 4 pm as sometimes the unit is still scheduled for cleaning or being cleaned from a previous booking. However, you may text me the day before to find out if earlier check in is available. We do our best to accommodate.

The Neighborhood:

Close to everything downtown: restaurants, bars, about 2 miles to the University of Oregon, bus stops, laundromats, bars. Easy access to the freeway.



The bus stop is a block away, and the bus station about 10 minutes walk. It's exactly 1 mile to the gates of the University of Oregon. There are many fun and delicious restaurants nearby, close to shopping, the freeway entrance, urgent care, business centers, and many more. It's a fun neighborhood and oftentimes, you can hear the ducks that live across the unit quacking.

Other Things to Note:

Even before the time of Covid-19, we use hospital grade sanitation and cleaning supplies for the protection of our service people and guests. We also block days between guests.



The bathroom is a compact one with shower stall. There are 2 steps to go up the apartment.



This is a NON-smoking unit, but smoking is allowed outside the premises. Pot is now legal in our state, but may not be smoked inside the house. We love our environment and hope that you will support our recycling efforts if possible, as well as, minimize carbon footprint with the utilities.



The sofa bed is quite firm compared to regular beds, but many of our guests have found it comfortable enough for short stays. If you are 2 people who sleep separately and will require an extra set of sheets and blanket and pillow for the sofa bed, we do have an extra $15 laundry charge for linen.



The unit has a broom, dustpan, paper towels, garbage bags and cleaning spray in case you spill something. Cleaning between guests are done by professionals who are paid living wages. Our cleaning and laundry products are natural and environmentally safe. Your cleaning fee goes directly to them. In the event that the unit is needing further cleaning because it was left dirty or unkempt, or there are stains we need to further treat, we charge you the extra charge for their extra time.



Please do not rearrange furniture.

Our dining table is not for crafting projects. It’s main purpose is for eating. Please use hot pads/trivet/towel when setting hot plates on the table.

Please do not use wet or muddy shoes inside the house or step on carpets when your shoes are dirty.



Please note that makeup oftentimes doesn’t come out of towels or hair dye for that matter. Please bring makeup remover cloths or wipes but we have black wash cloths for make up removal. We charge for towels or linen that are deeply soiled as oftentimes, even bleach or enzymes will not remove stains. Extra labor for deep stain treatment will also be charged by our service person and you will be billed accordingly.



Should you forget items, we can ship them to you with a minimum charge of $25 handling for our service person plus cost of postage.



LONG TERM GUESTS: We do linen washing and change outs only after your stay at the unit. You are responsible for in between washings. There are many laundromats close by that we can help you locate if needed.
