She is charming, quaint, and elegant. Every detail is considered. I especially adore the hand made lamps and quilts. A very fun neighborhood, right by Aztec Willies for great food and salsa dancing, where I met my true love!

I did not use the breakfast service because I was eating with family every day but my room was very comfortable, the house is beautifully restored and I enjoyed my stay. I rated the dining score only because this site would not let me leave my rating without entering a score...that should be changed by the site not "A Painted Lady Inn's" issue

The location of this home made it perfect for experiencing a local Portland neighborhood and only an $8 Uber ride from downtown. We did not view the main home as we wished for a private bathroom and were offered the converted garage which also has a small kitchenette. It was comfortable and our host brought breakfast to us and good coffee.

I was disappointed in the accommodation. The rooms are too cluttered with objects, my room was very dark despite the numerous separate lamps in the room. Furniture is very old fashioned and outdated - mostly in need of maintenance.
Risposta del proprietario
I'm very sorry you were not pleased with your accommodations. The house is Victorian and furnished with antique furniture and Victorian Lampshades. All the rooms have overhead lighting, bedside, headboard, and floor lamps in seating areas. I have just installed new carpeting in the three upstairs bedrooms and the downstairs bedroom has new oak hardwood floors and a beautiful hand woven Tabriz rug. All the rooms have original works of art on the walls and each room has a hand painted tray to set your personal items on and coasters on the bedside tables for glasses, but other than that, I'm not sure what you mean by clutter? Perhaps you should choose a contemporary accommodation for your next stay instead of leaving a negative review because you didn't enjoy the Victorian furnishings.

Jody was very helpful. We stayed in the cottage instead of the house. This would be great for a family.

The Painted Lady has been our go to place to stay in Portland for several years. The Cottage is very clean, spacious and comfortable.. Jody is friendly and has always been able to accommodate our needs. We do not think we could find a more perfect place to stay! Brian & Kathy Smith-White

This is a hidden gem in Portland Oregon. Is very beautiful the employee was extremely nice. Very accommodating. It was like staying the night in the museum stepping back in time to the Victorian era. Even though there was another guest somewhere in the house we never even knew it very peaceful quiet and romantic. Would recommend to anyone 100%

Very pleasant experience. The rooms are really clean. You can tell that the owner, Jody, carefully styled the whole house. It is in a charming neighbourhood with great restaurants and easy access to downtown by buses. I will definitely stay at the Painted Lady Inn when visiting Portland again in the summer.

A Painted Lady BnB is located in inner NE Portland, just 2.5 blocks off of NE Broadway: ideal for accessing services, close to the freeway--but far enough off the main path so as to be a quiet, walkable neighborhood. The house and rooms are decorated in vintage furniture and are very charming. Jody was very accommodating and served a perfectly portioned breakfast each morning. Thanks for the hospitality. Would stay here again!

A Painted Lady exceeded our expectations as we had made day of reservations when most of Portland area hotels were booked and very pricey. Jody was delightful and very welcoming. Food was outstanding and rooms I wished I had more time to enjoy. The location was perfect to get anywhere in the NE downtown area. Plenty to do and close to the Convention Center where we were for a conference. My only suggestion would be a new shower faucet as it was difficult to regulate water temp. Overall it was a glowing place to stay and I would highly recommend it!

We were very comfortable at thevPainted Lady Inn. The owner, Jody, was helpful and nice. We loved the Master room, which is very large. We also stayed in the suite, and slept very well. It was quiet and roomy. The suite is two loft style rooms with double beds. Breakfast was delicious!

While my stay at the inn was brief (I arrived around 8 pm and left before 8 am the next morning), it was very nice. The bedroom and bathroom were very clean. The atmosphere was inviting. The owner made sure I was comfortable and settled in. I would recommend it to anyone who is visiting downtown Portland.

Jody greeted us cheerfully and got us settled in time for a nice afternoon nap. We were going to Portland to see a show at Moda Center and wanted to stay somewhere within walking distance. It was about a mile away and we found a great place for dinner on our way. On our return, it was perfectly quiet, great bed. Breakfast was one of the best, substantial buttermilk pancakes, expertly scrambled eggs and really good coffee.

It is an old home with lots of antiques. The room was adequate and fairly comfortable for a single night stay. The food was eggs with gouda and I think a little cheddar and some toast with some fresh fruit and juice. Coffee and tea were provided. Our room had a 1/2 bath, but a full bath is close by. It wasn't full the night we stayed so I am unsure if the full bath gets busy or not. It was pleasant and quaint. I am not picky about my beds, but I slept well.

We had a good stay at A Painted Lady Inn last Thursday, October 27th through Sunday, October 30th. The location was nice, and Jody was a welcoming host. We got to enjoy some of Portland's nicer weather, and it was nice to come back to the Master Suite after 2 long days out. Breakfast was good, but there was no meat (bacon, sausage), just eggs and fruit. I would have liked to have a larger breakfast, as that was part of the reason we decided to stay at a bed and breakfast. Overall though, the place was nice, and we would return.

I had a lovely room in a lovely old house. Enjoyed my stay. Just one suggestion for the owner. It takes a long time for hot water to get to the shower, and on my first day, the shower ran out of hot water before I was done. If this issue were solved, it would be a perfect place to stay.

My husband and I stayed 2 nights at the Painted Lady. There were other guests both nights and everyone was very respectful and pleasant. I don't know what she does with her eggs in the morning but they're some of the best I've had! The hot and cold water in the shower was the only thing that took a little patience but maybe that was just the days we were there. Also, we weren't concerned, but our room didn't have a lock (we didn't ask for one so it's possible it was just an oversight). Location is nice too. Nice neighborhood to just walk around and gawk at the lovely architecture or go a block over to Broadway for a nice selection of restaurants for lunch. Overall, we'd recommend the Painted Lady and if we're in Portland again, we would definitely return!

It was a Victorian House with so many furniture in the house. Our room was alright except that we did not have spaces to put our clothes away. We could not close the shower room's door. The owner cooked the breakfast for us. Good coffee. The kitchen was packed with all her stuff. We had to park our car in front of the road. Need to clear things up and made it more functional in the room would be nice.

I was so pleased to find a vacancy at this charming fully restored 1890 Victoria Farmhouse. The home was sparkling clean and furnishings were lovely, authentic for this time period. I could easily close my eyes and imagine this home at the turn of the century surrounded by farmlands instead of Lloyd Center. Interesting businesses, shops, restaurants, neighborhoods that are some of the the oldest in the city. I thoroughly enjoyed our visit and look forward to future stays when visiting family in Portland.

Great stay again at this timeless and elegant home in Irvington. Stayed this time in the Den with New mattress that was quite firm. Full bathroom just steps down hallway. Breakfast was good with Mini Pancakes and fruit. We love the area for Dining, Petisco and Milo's right around the corner on Broadway, along with a new frozen yogurt shop, also got a massage at M.E. Massage!! Jody and Josh will take great care of you all. Enjoy your stay!!!

My stay was an interesting experience to say the least. I was looking forward to my arrival as I entered the city limits of Portland. The owner had personally contacted me on my cell as I was running late due to insane Portlandia traffic (which if you have not experienced lately is true gridlock) and was flexible in letting me check in when I arrived. This was sweet of the owner to care about my arrival and help me navigate into the NW area. I love the location, in northwest Portland. There were 2 bathrooms, one upstairs one downstairs. This was by far the biggest challenge of this B&B for me. The upstairs bathroom (which was closest to my room) was in serious disrepair: the shower door did not close at all since the latch was mismatched, there was no toilet paper roll holder so TP rolls were laying on the toilet, and shower temps varied from warm to scolding to cold. If anything, bathrooms MUST be functional but here at this B&B, this was a serious problem to me. This made me feel like the owner was totally skimping on maintenance. Bathrooms tend to really expose owners who just don't care, and this was no exception. Big fail. The Breakfast part of the B&B was barely average at best. For the time I spent there, all I had were quiches, one with spinach, one with asparagus. Coffee was a nice french press which the owner provided and was fresh every cup. Juice and water were provided as well. Place settings were clean and neat. But with regards to the morning meals, there was absolutely no variety. And for those who have gluten or dairy sensitivities or intolerance you would have been out of luck, and no alternative was offered, even at check-in (to give the owner time to prepare). I was better off finding a breakfast dive nearby, actually. So overall if location is paramount above anything else, this is the B&B for you. I just cannot recommend it. If the owner is not serious about bathroom upkeep then it is time for that owner to move on.

The rooms are surprisingly large and all have charm and character. The bed was very comfortable.

I stayed one night in this charming Victorian house. Everything was pristine and beautiful. The beds were comfortable. I did have an incident when a naked male guest entered my room during the night. I assumed he accidentally went to the wrong room. I was afraid for the rest of the night. I felt that the next day the owner was really not sympathetic to this experience. It was my bad that I did not notice the lock on the door, but felt a little more compassion was due. I would recommend a stay here as the location was great and very comfortable.

Millie & I stayed two nights in the "Cottage". It was great with a private bathroom with both a tub and shower. Also, had a kitchen, fridge, couch, lounge chair, TV. wireless internet, large comfortable bed, et. al. We settled in and really enjoyed our visit to Portland. Overall we saved money at the Inn versus a hotel and had a lot more privacy than a hotel. The close location to downtown was exactly what we were looking for! We walked to neighborhood restaurants both nights and they were just what we were looking for. We would definitely return on our next visit to Portland.

Painted Lady Inn is a gorgeous, well kept home. The furnishings and overall decor were adorable, and just gave a total sense of calm and relaxation. We spent a couple nights out on the porch talking (I hope we didn't keep anyone up!), since the weather was nice. It was convenient to get around from there; buses and a max line are within walking distance. Breakfast was amazing. Judy has a real talent with eggs, but everything she served was delicious. Every breakfast came with orange juice, coffee and tea, and fruit. She was even able to accommodate my partner's gluten intolerance. Overall it was a spectacular stay. I would highly recommend staying here.

Looking for an economical and unusual romantic weekend getaway? Jody Runge's The Painted Lady Inn provided my Valentine and I with an escape weekend that was convenient, relaxing, and pampering. Jody's attention to your needs begins when she meets you at the door to carry up your bags and concludes with a delicious breakfast. Easy to access all that Portland has to offer it was the perfect stay!

We stayed here for one night in the middle of the week, as I had to give an early presentation in Portland. We decided it would be nicer to give our money to someone like Jody instead of a hotel chain, even though we weren't on the typical bed and breakfast trip. It was a great choice! Jody is very nice, the house is great, and the value is extraordinary. Definitely recommended.

Very pleasant B&B in comfortable Portland neighborhood. Very nice breakfast. Sloping ceiling in one upper floor room poses risk of head trauma when rising from bed, but moving the bed a bit mitigates that. Half bath in the room was convenient, with full bath near by. There is great guest room in an adjacent building in the back yard of the main house.

We stayed for 2 days at "A Painted Lady Inn" in Portland and were thrilled to find such a comfortable and private place at a reasonable price. The cottage is large and includes a huge bed, sofa and table and chairs arranged as a seating area, plus a table and 2 chairs for eating or to use as a desk. There is a separate bathroom and a small kitchen area in the main living space with a full size fridge and freezer and plenty of dishes and utensils. The best surprise was the delicious breakfast that Jody served each morning. Fresh juice and coffee or hot tea and a quiche, or scrambled eggs and a fruit tart...served on the back deck or dining room or in your room, your choice. I highly recommend this B&B and plan to stay the next time we are in Portland.

Judy was a fantastic host and one of the best breakfast cooks I've met yet...I've never had a French Toast that topped her delicious recipe. A Painted Lady Inn was a lovely home that was well kept and had a lot of character. Very close to public transport right into downtown Portland (or a super close drive right into downtown) this is a great location. It's between PDX airport and downtown so you miss all the city traffic if you're flying in/out. Had a really nice stay and would recommend it to anyone in the area. Thanks Judy!

We rented the "cottage" in the back which appears to be a garage converted into a standalone suite. It was plenty big enough and the bed was comfortable. Our host was friendly and made some very good breakfasts (with French press coffee) each morning during our stay. The house is tucked a couple blocks off of a main drag and it's very quiet once you get back there. We walked around the neighborhood and found it to be very nice. Access to either the MAX or the street car lines are both about a 10-15 minute walk so plan accordingly if you're headed into downtown. Criticism for the inn: there were a lot of small ants roaming around the kitchenette, the HVAC unit seemed to have a mind of its own and the TV is a very old 13" tube unit on top of the refrigerator. Otherwise it was a pleasant stay and we would recommend to other travelers.

Elegant, ornate but comfortable late Victorian- could describe a sofa or it could describe the Painted Lady Inn-. A lovely breakfast, a gracious hostess, (most helpful when I was arriving at an off-hour) and a fantastically Victorian themed décor. You'd expect to have a conversation over tea in the drawing room with Charles Darwin or something like that. Great stay.

A Painted Lady Inn is our first b&b experience. Our room had a quarter bath ( toilet & sink) but we shared a shower. The house is 100 year old Victorian and it is in the process of renovation. It is a beautiful home but the renovations do not meet the quality of the original construction (I.e. a plastic shower) I presume due to the cost of replicating the original. The home is very comfortable with period furnishings (except the baths). Jody was a wonderful hostess and very friendly. The breakfast was not bad (asparagus quiche with fresh fruit and homemade muffins) but the portions more suited my wife than me. The price was 30% less than the competition so we are glad we gave it a try and we would gladly go back!

Looking for a charming old house in a beautiful neighborhood, close enough to the Max that you can go anywhere in Portland? Then try A Painted Lady Inn. Jody, the innkeeper and owner, is very accommodating, a good cook, and provides a very personal touch as she joins you for breakfast like one of the guests. We would definitely stay there again and recommend it highly.

I have traveled in Europe and the Far East; and, I can say without reservation, the week I spent in the little cottage behind the Painted Lady Inn was the most relaxing, enjoyable short vacation I have experienced. I did not take meals; but, the first night, Jody walked me to a unique little restaurant within a block of the cottage. I returned again another night and also discovered other equally good eating places nearby. The neighborhood begged to be walked and explored and I did it. Will return again when I get a chance to go to Portland. Also, enjoyed the city of Portland - very relaxing atmosphere every where I went. Great food, great people, and while I was there great weather.

A gorgeous collection of antiques fill this inn. By the time you read this, the exterior may have been repainted -- it was plain white when we arrived, but we were told of the plans to make it colorful like the others in the area. The bed was one of the most comfortable I've ever slept in. Breakfast was tasty and good size, but not huge (which means just right, rather than wasting food). The owner sat down and ate breakfast with us; very friendly. Walk around the beautiful historic neighborhood, just across the river from downtown. Oh, and the painted lady? She appears in several pictures. Ask the owner about her.

A Painted Lady Inn was the perfect spot for my friend and I to stay a night in Portland - it's a comfortable older home with loads of personality and charm, relaxed and open atmosphere, and a great host. Jody was always available, but never intrusive, and gave us great dinner advice (Petiscos has a delicious sampler platter, wonderful white sangrias, and an outstanding chocolate ganache cake as well as friendly staff) and directions to everywhere we needed. . We had a comfy bed in a quiet room with a small air conditoner , hot showers, and a delicious breakfast with fresh fruit (yummy scrambled eggs with mushrooms and horseradish cheese!) before setting off for the day. We will definitely be back!

We booked the room at the last minute, so we can't actually comment about the dining, as breakfast did not fit our schedule. (Disregard that rating.) We had very little interaction with the proprietor or other guests, but what little interactions we had were very pleasant. The room (and the entire house) are decorated in that faux-19th century style common to B&B's. Not my cup of tea, but at least in this case well done and not too over-the-top. The Painted Lady is on a surprisingly quiet side street, just blocks from the largest mall this close to Portland's downtown. It's also quite near a freeway on-ramp. The convenience/location factor is pretty high. We'd definitely stay here again.

We only needed a one night stay on a quick trip through Portland. Innkeeper Jodie was very friendly and welcomed us personally to the inn. We told her we were leaving very early to catch a plane and would miss the 9:00 a.m. breakfast. It would have been nice if she'd left out some muffins or other portable breakfast we could have taken with us when we left at 6:00 a.m.

I am very impressed with the hospitality and warmth The Painted Lady Inn offers. During my recent stay during the cold snap of winter the house was warm and inviting as was Jodie. She let me look around and admire the rooms. With the space available she has managed to maintain the balance of Victorian richness and comfort with the convenience of a fantastic location and great value. For the cost of an overnight stay it is difficult to beat this quality. The rooms are impeccably decorated and clean. The breakfast table is a delight of conversation with other guests and Jodie's own cooking which is light, refreshing and delicious. The Painted Lady Inn and Jodie has the highest of recommendations in my opinion.

My stay was extremely pleasant and comfortable, from sipping tea in the evening and enjoying the century old, very decorated parlors and dining room. Lots of information on what to do in Portland while there. Super comfortable beds and rooms. I will stay again.

Jodie shares her home and her breakfast table with the highest degree of hospitality and warmth. A Painted Lady Inn is a home from home and a meeting place of many paths and people. The shared morning talking about plans and experiences of Portland before parting ways makes for delightful breakfast. I always find myself returning here as it is, in my opinion, hands down the best bed & breakfast in Portland.

The house is beautifuly decorated and well-kept. The food was delicious, and the location was perfect. However, a couple things were a bit worrisome -- we were never actually able to get the front door to open of our own accord (the lock is very fiddly). The house itself gets quite cold, and the heater in our room was difficult to get going if you accidentally set it too low. A good stay, but I felt it was a bit expensive for what it was.

I recently stayed at A Painted Lady during a business trip, and selected it largely based on location. While the location itself was everything I expected, other aspects of my stay were also outstanding! Jody even accommodated my off-hours comings and goings by leaving fruit, scones, and coffee for ridiculously early breakfasts. I will definitely stay here again if I am in the area!

We had a great time at the painted lady. I only have ONE issue with it. We stayed in the suite which has two beds. Having a price for a room with two beds and then charging an extra $30 to USE the second bed makes little sense. Who else is going to use it if the people renting the room won't? To be clear you get the room with two beds for one price for 2 people. Those two people can sleep in one bed and leave the second one empty for $150/night. If however the two people who rented both rooms want someone to sleep in the second bed it's' going to be another $30. I don't think the pricing structure makes a lot of sense for the suite. It's not like breakfast for the additional two people will cost another $30. That's my only complaint (well, parking is a pain but that's no the Inn's fault). The rest was wonderful and I wished we'd come when it wasn't raining.

My two favorite things about "The Painted Lady" were: 1) the hospitality of the owner , Jody, who genuinely seemed to enjoy her guests and sat with us for breakfast each morning; and 2) the bed was the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in. I am a light sleeper but honestly hated to get out of this bed in the morning!! The B&B is beautifully furnished in the style of the Victorian period. I'd stay here again and recommend it highly.

We enjoyed relaxing in one of the front parlors, sitting in the front porch swing, as well as walking around the peaceful neighborhood, and we were delighted to be within walking distance to many restaurants including Peets Coffee and Starbucks. We had planned to stay four nights, but left after three only because we wanted to begin our journey home a day early. This was a good choice for us in Portland.

A lovely victorian bed and breakfast. Jodi was a wonderful host. Delicious breakfast. We stayed in The Den - which is small, but has a wonderful bed.

A Painted Lady Inn is a great place to stay near Portland. We needed a place a stay near the Portland Convention Center and we were also looking for easy access to Portland.

Lovely home within walking distance to several excellent restaurants as well as Lloyd Center. The room that I stayed in did not have a way to lock it when you left so do not leave anything really valuable on site that you might be concerned about losing. I enjoyed the breakfast but it was very light so do not expect anything hearty. Also the bathroom was down a half flight of stairs.

The outside of the house was pretty .I was pleasantly surprised with the decor as we walked in. All the rooms were decorated nicely and looked inviting. The breakfast was homemade and one sat at a dining table with other guests if they were up at the same time. We also had honor of the hostess and owner at the the table. This made for a friendly atmosphere. When we needed to move to another room and were leaving early, the owner offered to take our bags. This was much appreciated. The streets were quiet . Shops, a delicious bakery and eateries were within walking distance. It was fascinating to see the huge trees and homes in the area.

The Painted Lady is a lovely place, and the garage suite a self contained unit with everything you could need for an extended stay of a few days. The location is perfect and in easy walking distance to a number of shops and things to do, and an easy drive into downtown. The suite had a rather complete kitchen which we did not make use of but would have been great if we were staying longer or for a family - and the bed was super comfy! We are fairly self contained travelers so really appreciated that Jody picked up on that and once we got checked in left us to our own devices - although she did offer both breakfast and/or coffee in the mornings if we wanted (its Portland, breakfast is a coffee from a local shop and voodoo donuts!) Great place to stay and if I find myself in Portland again, will absolutely stay here.

This is a nice property, run by an affable and interesting woman. The common area furnishings are very comfortable. The bedroom was nicely appointed. The bed was comfortable.The tube-type TV was a surprise. Very nice breakfast - eggs, pancakes and fruit, with strong coffee (that's a good thing) and OJ. Overall, I was happy with the stay and I would recommend it. It met my expectations, but my standards are high, so I moved the rating from a 3 to a 4.

But I would recommend staying here, and I would stay again, also.

A Painted Lady B&B has a separate, self-contained cottage behind the main house. I have not stayed in the house, but I greatly enjoyed my recent stay in the cottage. It's a quiet, cozy, private, well-appointed space and I highly recommend it. The cottage kitchen area is well enough equipped that I could make my own breakfasts, so I can offer no opinion on the B&B's breakfast offerings. The owner of A Painted Lady was very welcoming and cordial, but totally respectful of my privacy. It was an all-around positive experience. I'm sure I'll stay with her again.

I have stayed at the Painted Lady a number of times while working in Portland, always in the Master suite. Jody, the innkeeper, is a gracious host who prepares a tasty and healthy breakfast, is a delight to talk with, and respects the privacy of her guests. She has done a masterful job restoring the house and decorating the interior. Considering how near it is to Lloyd Center shopping and the many local area restaurants,The Painted Lady is surprisingly quiet. I would love to be able to take the bed in the Master suite home with me because it is so comfortable!

This is an old Victorian home with wonderful antiques to enjoy throughout the house.. You have several types of rooms to choose..even your own cottage behind the main house for longer stay. .

It is in an active neighborhood within walking distance of shopping, wonderful restaurants , magnificent other Victorians and close to all transit systems to downtown Portland... I prefer their train .. about 15 min into town. This is old town Portland area!

We used a Groupon to stay at this B&B. Breakfast was an additional $15/day, so we opted to eat out. We stayed in the Cottage (converted garage) so we came and went without ever going into the main house and we only saw the owner when we picked up the key. Without the breakfast or a main-house room, the interaction that usually occurs at a B&B did not exist. Just a bed.

We absolutely loved staying at this quaint bed and breakfast. My boyfriend and I found A Painted Lady on Groupon and were amazed by it when we arrived; we were there for my 30th birthday and Valentines day and even though it was cold out we really enjoyed the warmth and comfort of this B&B (it was also very romantic :)) I highly recommend it!!

I decided to try out this B&B on the suggestion of the folks at the Lion & the Rose around the corner - I didn't have much chance to plan my vacation or trip and I needed to grab something that was available at the last minute. As it turns out, I got to spend two nights (originally three, but I arrived late) in the "Cottage" a larger but more modern space behind the main house - then finally one night in the house itself. The cottage was perfect - as I was heading out to local venues to perform, it was nice to have a little more space, and the freedom to make a little noise late in the evening when I got back and the adrenalin level was still high. Although it was a wee bit pricey (but totally worth it). That last night in the period bedroom in the main house - circa 1894 - was also unforgettable as well. Both rooms had nice gas fireplaces which elevated the "cozy" level to exquisite and got the temperature in the rooms just right. The breakfasts were nicely varied and very good. Last but not least, the hostess and proprietor, Jody, is second to none in helpfulness, friendliness, flexibility and efficiency. (She even arranged a tour of the first place I was considering staying - the Lion and the Rose). Altogether, a GREAT experience. I cannot recommend this place highly enough.

A Painted Lady B&B is a treasure for sure. We visited Portland, Or., for a very important family weekend, with friends and relatives coming from all over the US, including Alaska! Staying there at Painted Lady gave us a quiet respite from all the festivities...and a chance to rest up and rejoin the group. We love the way the owner has decorated this adorable house and made it into a welcoming, comforting place for travelers. The breakfasts were delicious and the entire feeling of the place was extraordinary in every way. We certainly hope to return. Beverly & Brooks Jackson, Washington, DC

I stayed at The Painted Lady late in February 2012. The hostess was very accommodating to my schedule and very friendly. I rented "The Cottage" which is quite spacious for the price. Having the small kitchen and private bath, along with privacy in general, was perfect for my stay. The big king bed is very comfortable. The free wifi worked perfectly. Also being at ground level in the cottage worked well for me since I'm not comfortable climbing stairs. The location is really good. Very short walk to NE Broadway with a wide selection of restaurants and cafes. Just beyond is the Lloyd Center Mall. And a very short walk beyond the Mall is the light rail which will take you downtown for free.

My room was great--there was a little nook with a desk in one corner that was a perfect place for working, writing letters, etc. Jody, the owner, sat and ate breakfast with me, and we had a nice conversation.

We were pleasantly surprised to open the wardrobe in our room to hang our coats and find a tv and vcr/dvd combo, so we were able to watch our favorite OPB program before going to sleep. In the morning I was a little hesitant to dine with the other guests, but I couldn't resist the cheese and leek quiche cooked by the wonderful hostess, and for that I am glad. The other guests (regulars at the inn) were delightful, and my husband and I stayed at the table long after our breakfast was finished chatting and laughing with the owner and the other guests. What a great group of people, and such a wonderful experience. We are already planning another stay for our anniversary coming up.

I have been here many of times and this last stay of 5 days was Great. I was in The Den with a Private bath down hall on the Main Floor, Room has a Gas Fireplace and a wonderful Large queen Bed. "So comfy" Did some shopping in the area, and also Chatted with Jody quite a Bit.. Will Return again soon. -;)

We had a great time in this charming B&B. You feel like you're stepping back into the late 1800's. It was quiet, the bed was comfortable, the whole place is furnished nicely, and Jody was wonderful.

My husband and I stayed here mid-week for an anniversary celebration. (We both had to get back to work early the next day.) It was exactly perfect. Convenient. Peaceful. Welcoming. The decor kept to the Victorian spirit of the house w/o being overwhelming. Our hostess was lovely.

No tissue or cups in my room. I had pills to take but no way of drinking. I could have asked the owner for a cup but didn't, so that is probably my fault. I had to take a roll of toilet paper into my room to blow my nose with. The rooms were beautiful, the house gorgeous, the owner Jodi was very nice. This is my 3rd time staying at any B&B...there was no choice of breakfast offered, even including the syrup on our pancake ( it was strawberry)...What if I disliked strawberry? Why wasn't I offered maple syrup or strawberry? Her eggs were delicious! So really my complaints are trivial and small. In all I would go back for sure! I LOVED the peace ad quiet, that we got. Her art was fun to look at and read about!

Jody met us at the door and got us settled in a nicely decorated turn of the century room on the main level. Location is outstanding in the middle of the "Broadway District" with a good selection of great restaurants for dinner. Bed was comfortable and hospitality great. We'll definitely return!

We rated this great B&B as "Met my expectations" because we had stayed there previously and therefore knew to expect a terrific experience from a friendly and wonderful hostess. You can't go wrong here!! We love the cottage!!

This being the first time my wife and I have ever stayed at a B&B, we weren't sure what to expect. The home was absolutely beautiful, immaculately furnished and clean. The bed was extremely comfortable and we felt right at home. Coffee and breakfast the next morning were wonderful. My only suggestion would be to get a handyman to repair the broken remote controls for the TV & VCR, and fix the bedroom door slide-lock so that it engages properly. Other than those minor issues, we had a great time.

This was my second stay at the Painted Lady Inn. It is a delightful place, right next to an historic neighborhood that is great for a morning jog. The breakfasts were great, and the room was very quiet. I stayed in the "guest room" which has a private half bath. The shower is in a shared bathroom, so it is important to leave a bit of extra time in the morning to accommodate this.

Stayed here one night, the room was quite comfortable and Jody (owner) was very accommodating.

My husband and I live in a nearby city but with a very busy life we very much enjoyed our little get away. The Painted Lady offers peace and quiet and relaxation. No need for a car, we were able to walk for activities. We look forward in another stay. Thank you Jody. The Moore's

Travelling Amtrak, we couldn't make advance reservations due to ontime concerns. Jody took care of us at the last minute with a wonderful house in a quiet surround with period antiques. Comfy mattress and nice breakfast with good conversation helped us to begin our Pacific Northwest tour. Definitely would stay here again. Thanks Jody

Just off the main drag, it was conveniently located. Jody greeted us warmly, lined us out on the where and whats and left us to ourselves. The house is charming, with cozy rooms...I poked around to see the others, all were comparably nice! The morning breakfast was better than average, with some friendly chatter with the other guests. Yes! we'll stay there again and tell our friends!

We found the location to be excellent. within a couple blocks there are great restaurants serving Japanese, Thai, Italian, and American food. McMenamins Pub is also a nice visit and we were welcomed by the staff there. The free rail link to downtown is a great perk too. Jody was very attentive to us and served us a fine breakfast during our stay. The neighbors were cheerful and said hi to us also.

While planning our wedding, my husband and I decided we'd like to try Portland, OR as our honeymoon destination. After shopping around, we were able to find what looked to be a charming and affordable B&B. And we were so right! Jodi could not have been more kind or helpful. We rented the guest cottage, which was nicely decorated, clean, and extremely comfortable. There is also a lovely patio in front of the cottage, complete with a fountain, that is perfect for enjoying breakfast or an evening meal. Also, A Painted Lady's location is perfect. It is just a short walk to a fantastic mall, great places to eat, and cozy coffee shops. Not to mention, the gorgeous and historic neighborhoods surrounding the Inn, that lend themselves to a leisurely stroll! There is so much to do and see in Portland! We will definitely be going back, and when we do we will stay at A Painted Lady!

I travelled for 8 weeks this summer, and stayed at half a dozen bed & breakfasts. This place was charming and located in a great neighborhood of restaurants, etc. I took a lovely long walk, slept well, ate well, and was treated as a friend. The old fashioned (but functional) toilet with a chain and the porcelain claw foot tub were FUN!

I think the Painted Lady Inn is a nice place to stay and a great value in Portland! The property is in a great location - close to the Rose Garden section and not far from a cool historic area with lots of shops and restaurants. And other areas of Portland are easily accessible as well. I enjoyed the atmosphere of the house and all the antiques. I stayed in the master room and the room and bed were very comfortable. The bathroom was very clean and the shower was huge with great water pressure. Jody, the innkeeper, is very helpful and personable and you feel like you are staying with a friend. She made the best breakfast (fluffy eggs and pancakes, fruit, coffee, different teas) which exceeded what I expect from a B&B. I really liked staying at the Painted Lady Inn and will definitely do so again when I am in Portland. Thanks Jody!

We arrived for our two day visit and were pleasantly surprised to find A Painted Lady Inn well designed to the Victorian period. The bed was comfortable and the temperature just right. The only thing that was not up to usual standards in my opinion was the breakfast itself. The owner is nice but not overly friendly, and ate with us then disappeared quickly. The breakfast for the two days consisted of eggs, fruit and either muffins or small pancakes. It was adequate but most B & B's really go overboard in more exotic creations for breakfast.
4,6 su luglio 09, 2011
By Portland's standards, that's a fairly old building which nicely matches a collection of old furniture collected by Jody. The neighbourhood is nice, fairly close to the tram station (Lloyd's Center), from which one get to downtown for free.

This was a wonderful stay and would be perfect when the hot water problem gets solved. Convenient tp where we needed to go.

I chose the Painted Lady because of helpful reviews on Yelp. It was close enough to the airport to catch my early morning flight, as well as close enough to the dinner place I wanted to eat in the city. All of the rooms were quaint, and totally fit the theme of Victorian Style. I recommend this B&B for sure.

We stayed at A Painted Lady on 6/117/2011. The house has been beautifully and meticulously restored by Jody the owner (& former women's basket ball coach!). Neighborhood is beautiful and easy to get to downtown. Jody was very accommodating and makes great coffee.

This was a terrific place. Beautiful rooms, delicious breakfasts, the proprietor is a wonderful person and made us VERY welcome. Two suggestions for improvements, both minor: a box of tissues in the baths and/or bedrooms would be nice; and (as we stayed for some time and had more than the usual weekend's worth of clothing) a few more hangars for the wardrobe would have been helpful. But overall, we absolutely intend to stay there again, and HIGHLY recommend this B&B.

My partner and I are very impressed with the warm hospitality we received during our last visit to Portland. We stayed at A Painted Lady B&B. Our host, Jody, was very attentive to our needs and questions about Portland, and she cooks a marvelous breakfast. There are four differently themed rooms throughout the main house and there is also a coverted garage, The Cottage, around the back that is quiet and private. Compared to staying at a regular hotel, or self-catering inn, the accommodation at A Painted Lady is a clear head and shoulders above the rest.

Jody is not only a fabulous cook, but a warm, fun hostess. I felt comfortable and cared for during what could have been a stressful time, searching for an apartment in a new state. Her home is in a great part of town with restaurants, shopping and light rail just steps away. It is also ideally located for those who love to stroll through beautiful neighborhoods.

My husband, daughter and I spent one cold rainy/snowy Portland night at the Painted Lady (we had the suite). Jody is the perfect innkeeper, interesting and vibrant. Great food, great location, warmth and hospitality. The three of us shared a bathroom with another couple, which was a little much for five people all getting up and about at the same time . . . a consideration if you like space and privacy. Next time we'll rent the garden cottage!

We popped into town for a quick evening to enjoy a show at the Rose Garden, and stayed at the Painted Lady Inn. The owner was very accomodating to our needs and our odd arrival time. We found the house decorated for Christmas from top to toe, and felt transported into Victorian times. She was also very accomodating to our timing for breakfast and super friendly and interesting to talk to. The rooms were lovely and fun, and everything was impeccably clean. The mattresses on the beds were SO comfortable - luxurious! It was a great way to spend a night in Portland, and extremely close to everything we were attending.

Surprisingly quiet for being so close to Lloyd Center; close to good restaurants; great bed in the Master Room; and delicious breakfasts. Guest's privacy is valued by innkeeper Jody, who is also a great conversationalist. Christmas decorations are beautiful! My home away from home when staying in Portland.

The best part of our stay was that we were visiting relatives on the next block. The Inn was not stuffy and had a clean fresh feel. The beds were heavenly. The rooms were delightful but I must not have thoroughly read the information concerning our suite as I assumed that we would have our own bath. My son indicated that the water was not very hot for taking a shower. Yet all in all, it was very much like going home after an evening out. The innkeeper was really nice kept the place very cozy.

I stayed in the downstairs room with a little gas burner in the fireplace and slept like a baby. The bed was cozy and comfortable and the house and location very peaceful. Also had the entire downstairs bathroom with clawfoot bathtub to myself so long, relaxing baths were in order. Breakfast was delicious and the proprietor gracious, and friendly. If you're looking for alone time this is the place to come.

The appearance of the inn is attractively understated. It doesn't remind me of San Francisco's gaily decorated Carpenter Gothic "Painted Ladies". And that's okay. It is tucked in a neighborhood so rich with hands-on Craftsman architecture and decor that it feels like a visit to another time and place. The rooms are appointed in an eclectic Victorian style which is elegant and welcoming at the same time. Everything from cleanliness to bedding to tableware were first-rate. Innkeeper Jody offers whatever level of directions or tourism assistance that you want or need, along with friendly, appropriate conversation. She will recommend places to dine and shop within easy walking distance. She accommodated my online reservation request with short notice and even provided my travel-weary bones an early check-in. I encourage a stay at A Painted Lady.

I love the area as its so close to downtown Portland and yet quiet in an urban neighborhood. Plenty of places to eat nearby and beautiful streets to walk with high end historic homes. Jody suggested Pix a dessert place and we had something chocolate ---:)) We ate at sushi land around the corner, its inexpensive on a budget sushi that is priced by the plate and goes around on a belt in front of you. $10.00 or less a person. Peets and Starbucks coffee is right around the corner, mall about 4 blocks away and light rail (MAX) TO Downtown. Wish we had longer then 1 night! We will be back, We love you Jody!!! ps. we stayed in the suite upstairs with (shared bath) 2 room suite was perfect for us, nice decorating and we loved the xtra blankets and coverlets! Thanx -:)

This BnB was lovely and cozy! With all the antiques that give it that warm and cozy feeling like I remember from my past. We had a fireplace in our room that kept us nice and warm. Jody the hostess had several city maps/guides that she gave us to find our way around town and had several recommendations of places to go see, shop and eat. Breakfast was wonderful, my husband had Jody give me the recipe so I could make it for him at home! We will be back again at this beautiful Inn again!

This vintage house is decorated in the times of the era and the service from that era is exceptional.

I wouldn't stay anywhere else to enjoy Portland! An exceptional experience.

We stay several times a year at A Painted Lady Inn. Our son lives in Portland in a small home, so Jody, the innkeeper, provides a wonderful "home away from home." She goes "above and beyond" to be helpful and everything about her inn is superb. She personifies a professional innkeeper who enjoys her guests, and the breakfasts are terrific. We have met interesting, friendly people around her table. The location is great too.

Lovely place, but owner tacked on extra charges when she ran our credit card and refused to reverse them (charged for my daughter when NO WHERE on the website, reservation confirmation charges, or confirmation amount included an extra person charge when we reserved for three people). She even admitted her mistake but would not credit us. Too many other nice honest places to visit to put up with this dishonesty again.
Risposta del proprietario
This guest did not make a reservation on line, nor did they disclosed there would be three guests staying in the cottage when they contacted me directly. Therefore they were quoted the price for double occupancy prior to their stay. Several weeks after leaving they e-mailed and asked to be refunded they $30 charge for the third person which I declined to refund since I had provided service for three persons. Since then they have posted this review on every web site they could find.

Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate Coming in March
Both the Wii U and 3DS versions of Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate will be coming on March 19th, 2013.
Capcom and Nintendo announced Thursday the cross-compatible Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate would be out in March. Players will be able to enjoy taking their game saves on the go, and keeping their monster hunting skills sharp when not at home.
Though the Wii U doesn't currently have compatibility with any USB keyboards, Capcom has revealed there will be a day one patch for MH3U that will add that support for the console. Players could use the GamePad to type, but adding a keyboard for online chat options will go a long way in ensuring fans get the most from their MH3U experience.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Lipscomb volleyball head coach Brandon Rosenthal has announced the hiring of Billy Ebel to be the next volleyball assistant coach.
"I'm excited to bring in Billy, there's no doubt that he will bring a strong work ethic and a fantastic energy level," Rosenthal said. "He's one of these young coaches that has a great understanding for the game and the running of a program. He is extremely knowledgeable in the planning and execution of a high level practice. I am very excited for this addition of Billy to our staff as I know he will pour his heart into LUV."
Ebel is looking forward to starting his Lipscomb coaching career.
"The main reasons why I wanted to come to Lipscomb were the tradition of the program, the moral of the school and the value of the school," Ebel said. "I've known Brandon a long time now. He has recruited a lot of Kansas City kids. I've heard nothing but great things about the program.
"When I found out about the job, I was really excited and knew that was something that I wanted to pursue and knew it would be the next step in my career as a coach."
Ebel has known some of the former and current Lipscomb volleyball athletes.
"He had a lot of ties to Lipscomb because he was friends with Jake Pease, Alex Kelly, Abby Fay and Meghan Hinemeyer as they all grew up in the same area," Rosenthal said. "He coached Lauren Ford and has great ties in the Kansas City area."
Rising junior Ford and Ebel are from the same hometown of Lenexa, Kan.; although they went to rival high schools.
Ebel is replacing former assistant coach Jeff Wismer, who accepted a position at the new Club Director of Alliance Volleyball Club, at the end of April.
Ebel joined the University of Missouri-Kansas City staff in February 2011 as a volunteer assistant coach and later on stayed on the staff as a graduate assistant coach. He is currently working on his master's degree in higher education.
"For the last three seasons, I've spent time at the UMKC under Christi Posey, who's had 12 years at KU," Ebel said. "I've been mentored by her and learned a lot from her. We turned the program around. We went 12-17 in my first season, to 17-12 in my second season.
"I've learned a lot about coaching, recruiting, establishing my own philosophy and my own coaching staff. A lot of that goes hand-to-hand with coach Rosenthal's thoughts and ideas on how we want to represent the program."
Prior to him joining the UMKC staff, Ebel served as a defensive coordinator at Bishop Milege, his former high school team. He helped the Lady Stags to the 2010 Kansas State Championship.
Ebel served as a volunteer assistant coach at Muncie Burris Laboratory High School in Muncie, Ind., for three seasons. He helped guide the Owls to the Indiana Class 2A State Championship in each season and one national runner-up finish.
Ebel earned his Bachelor of Science degree in sports administration and management in 2010 from Ball State University.
The former Libero set the BSU's single-season record with an average of 3.05 digs per set his senior season. He was a 2010 All-Midwestern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association First Team selection.
Ebel finished tied for 10th in BSU's program history with 688 digs and finished third in matches with double-figure digs with 33.

I didnt use to like purple, but since i start cardmaking, i think purple is becoming one of my favourite colour ! its so elegant, beautiful and feminine :) I don't own any purple/lavender distress inks, so i try to make this purple effect colour using my Derwent soft colour pencil.
The second card is a card for my mom.
I tried to make a diferent happy mother's day card , without flowers.

I'll say it again: I have a great job. Recently, my life in shoes required me to be outside by a luxurious pool, sun blazing overhead, surrounded by back-lit hills, and watch as one beautiful ensemble from Gucci's Cruise 2014 women's collection floated by. And the best part is, it was all for charity.
Gucci, Shady Canyon Golf Club and South Coast Plaza partnered for a runway show and luncheon to raise money for the Shady Canyon Charitable Foundation, which each year grants financial assistance to organizations that aid the homeless, children in need and families in crisis, as well as educational and cultural groups. This year, the foundation selected these local philanthropies to aid: Infinite Hero Foundation, Age Well Senior Services, Meals on Wheels, Angel Flight West, Orangewood Children's Foundation and the Irvine Classical Players.
The event, which included a Gucci boutique created especially for the Shady Canyon Charitable Foundation, raised money through sales of tickets to the runway show and luncheon. (Sponsors did not have a final tally as of press time). A percentage of sales from the boutique were donated to the foundation.
There was also a lovely luncheon held in the clubhouse of the golf club, but let's be honest – I was there for the clothes – and boy, did Gucci (as well as the gorgeously attired guest list) deliver.
The front row – all of the seats, really – were filled with ladies who lunch in Chanel, Louboutin and Gucci all kitted out in fall's latest trends, including leather, leopard print and other punk accents.
The Gucci collection – characterized by the designer as "opulent nonchalance" – was filled with soft, slouchy pants and shirts, classic wrap coats and jackets, shirtwaist dresses in maxi styles and rendered in a sheer silk with metallic tone-on-tone dots. The palette was drawn, according to press materials, from "hues evoking a faraway South American sunset" in "materials as light as sea foam."
The show closed with stunning, shimmering, sequined tank and shift dresses in pinks, blues, golds and greens that stood out against the blazing blue canyon sky to dramatic effect.
