Very comfortable and the location is ideal. Great restuarants, bakeries, bars, etc all within a block or three. Well worth it but there are a couple downsides. It's an older house so creaky floors, and its located on a busy road. No matter, we would stay here again for sure.

We had an amazing experience staying at the Bluebird house. Breakfast was delicious every day with fresh pastries. The location is perfect for dinner or drinks and we used the bus system for our vacation with an easy pickup down the block. Would HIGHLY recommend this location.

Soaking tub—yes please!
This spot is super cozy and Portland-chic. The historic home is beautifully maintained with some great modern additions. I loved soaking in the claw foot tub!

Very unique place, has some very nice personal touches with lights and fake fireplace outside the room. Very nice location for walking and finding food, shops, art galleries, etc. Donut shop up the street and great food trucks right around the corner.

Respite during a crisis
Great place. Right in the midfle of busy SE Portland. Close to so many great restaurants & bars. shops yet a respite from the clamor of the neighborhood. Great 24/7 breakfast/snack items. Quiet, cozy room & great batroom. Lovely, older decor. Staff was friendly. Bluebird Guesthouse was a real lifesaver during a difficult time in Portland.

Charming and well designed remodel of an older Bungalow. We loved it, especially after meeting and speaking to the owner. Lots of choices of breakfast and snack foods. The room was comfortable and welcoming! Will return again!!

Great for introverts.
I’m a person who loved privacy and this guest house was great for that. There was a coded entry and I never had to interact with anybody. Great location. I loved the creative touches like the Elliot Smith room etcetera. I would stay here again.

Great restaurants walking distance
Great location nearest excellent eateries on Crossing Street and fun shops. Wonderful sweet room. Only complaints is there was this creepy light that shined over the bed for a few minutes when you turned out the light --super creepy and the people in the house above us came in very late, like 2am, creeking about so awoken and for some of us, it's hard to go back to sleep. Wash available if your mid trip and need to wash your things. Super convenient and cozy.

A fun, funky old house with kind of an upscale hostel feel. Individual rooms with private bathrooms, big communal kitchen with lots of breakfast items to fix yourself. Parking is tricky as it is street parking only in a busy and popular area. You may have to walk a couple blocks but felt pretty safe. Great location! Would def stay here again.

Right in the heart of my favorite part of Portland. Comfy beds, very clean, cozy homey rooms. Really everything one could need. My only complaint is the A/C in the Kinsey room is loud. But in the middle of summer, you need to have it on.

Thank you Bluebird Guesthouse!
Staying at the Guesthouse felt like a throwback to a gentler, more community-minded era. The room was lovely with a super comfy bed. It was the first night on a long trip of one-night stays that I slept well. The kitchen was generously stocked with breakfast supplies and snacks. Right around the corner was a food truck ally, had a delicious dinner (Indian food). Great neighborhood, but most importantly, the lovely, comfortable, and welcoming atmosphere at Bluebird Guesthouse. Thank you!

This is a simple guesthouse, right on Division close to dining, shops, and the people we were visiting. Parking is on the street, but I've never had a problem finding a spot, break-ins, etc.
Depending on the room, some of the fixtures could stand an update, but on the other hand, they are all vintage, so that is part of the charm.
