The space
Enjoy our cozy 1 bedroom guest house with a kitchen, Smart TV, living area, heating & air conditioning, wi-fi, iron & ironing board, hair dryer, washer & dryer. The French doors open to your own fenced semi-private yard with an outside seating area. It's the perfect place to sit with your morning coffee on a sunny morning! The living area has amazing natural light, but there are blinds if you want privacy. With the main queen bed and the couch that converts to a queen bed, this 470 square foot guest house can comfortably sleep up to 4 people.
If you decide to cook, the kitchen is fully stocked with cooking supplies and equipment. However if cooking is not your thing, there are many restaurants & coffee shops steps away on Alberta Street.
For families with young children, we offer some amenities for children including books & toys, room darkening shades in the bedroom, children's dinnerware and a pack 'n play (upon request).
We provide some basics for your stay including coffee, tea and a few snacks. See the amenities section of the listing for more details.
There are blackout curtains in the bedroom. Even with blinds on the windows, guests sleeping on the sofa bed may wish to bring a sleep eye mask if they want to sleep before sunset or after sunrise.
Guest access
Access to the guest house is down the driveway on the left of the main house. You have full access to the 1 bedroom Alberta Nest guest house. The French doors open to your own fenced semi-private courtyard with patio seating. You may hear us in our backyard and we might hear you in yours. But it's not a bother to us.
We have a smart lock and you will have your own code to access the guest house during your visit.
Other things to note
Lorell's pronouns are she/her and Jason's are he/him. We invite you to share your pronouns with us when you book.
Access to our guest house is up our narrow driveway, which has a short steep slope at the beginning. There is one step up to the guest house (both front and back doors). Due to the narrow driveway, it is not possible to drive tup the driveway even for drop-off. The front door of the guest house is about 80 feet from the sidewalk.
We have a dog. He doesn’t go inside the guesthouse or in the guesthouse fenced area. You might hear him from time to time.
We are in the landing path for some airplanes into PDX airport. Often, you can hear a few planes landing between 5 and 7 pm.
