Beautiful walk that goes in forever if you're that keen! Even on an overcast and cloudy day it was gorgeous.
The walk is flat and paved, so offers v little challenge, if any, to those not fit. Not sure about disability access though, as getting to the walk appears to be from the beach.
Pros: Location really is very central, within walking distance to pretty much everything that you would like to see in Portland, plus a park with daily food trucks with heaps of choices almost on the doorstep. Also very dangerous is the fact that Nordstrom is just behind the apartment building! The apartment is well maintained and very comfortable, with two large bedrooms and an open plan living area. Good view of the square just across the road from the living room, and public transport is almost on the doorstep.

Cons: The check in process was a bit unclear--yes they do send out an instructions pack, but it didn't quite happen according to the email; I had to walk straight in and speak to the ?security/receptionist people with regards to getting the keys. Signage of the building was also quite ... discreet.

However, this is a reasonably priced, centrally located, well furnished and maintained apartment, and if you were travelling as a family or in a group, this is absolutely a place you should consider.
