Guests get exclusive use of the driveway which is long enough to accommodate 2 cars. The Guesthouse is located at the end of the driveway. The owner & his tenant occupy the main house on the left side of the driveway which is completely detached from your Guesthouse. There is also an abundance of free street parking right outside on 33rd Ave or in the adjacent neighborhood streets if you want something a little less busy.

Our street is really busy with a decent amount of traffic most times throughout the day. We recommend backing into the driveway to make getting back out much easier!

We are happy to answer any questions you may have, and are great at maintaining a one-hour response time. We do ask for your patience for any overnight messages as we may not see it until the next morning.

Alberta Street, the main drag through the neighborhood, has many newly renovated retail storefronts and restaurant space. These are mixed in with older businesses that have been there forever. The shopping area can now only be considered trendy. There is a strong focus on indie designers, handcrafted items, and boutique shops.

Most of the shops lining Alberta Street highlight handmade local designer clothing, paper mache’ lamps, and imported gifts from afar. Alberta art galleries and shops showcase some fine local work. Smattered throughout are the requisite Portland coffee houses, seemingly one for each counter culture – there are no rules in Portland about having too many coffee shops on one street, and Alberta is no exception. You won’t find a Starbucks on Alberta, though, as it just wouldn’t seem to fit into the quirky individuality of the place.

At first glance, the name “Alberta Arts District” may seem a little overstated when taking into account the number of galleries on the street. But when one discovers that nearly every business – from restaurants and bars to the finest in dress shops, with very little exception – functions as a gallery with a rotating roster of artists represented on their walls, one begins to understand the full nature of this community’s devotion to art. And Last Thursday, as it is simply called, is the designation given to the ever-growing event occurring on the last Thursday of each month when each of these establishments is open late and essentially transformed into the artists’ opening night reception.

We are located off a busy street, so you may feel inclined to keep your car parked in the driveway and walk, bike or UBER to the surrounding neighborhood hot spots. Whatever method you choose, you are minutes to a variety of neighborhood haunts that make this part of Northeast Portland very popular!

This is a completely private Airbnb, but the other home on the property is occupied by the owner and his tenant. They are very conscious of guests and will take measures to ensure your stay is comfortable and undisturbed. Please return the favor by respecting the space & following all of our house rules. This includes no parties, smoking, and noise disturbances after quiet hours. We work really hard to make this space special for our guests and look forward to hosting you!

My work: StayAwhile Cohosting
Hello! My name is Josh and I run "Stay Awhile Cohosting" a professional vacation rental management company based out of Portland, OR. My wife and I fell in love with Airbnb when we stayed in our first one back in 2015.. and we have been hosting ever since! We both grew up in the PNW, so feel free to ask us for any local recommendations. We are happy to share our go-to spots for coffee, cocktails, restaurants and fun places to explore. Cheers!
