Overall was a nice place, BUT… Needs more window screens (wanted to have a breeze but bugs wanted to come in), also needs curtains in the kitchen (setting sun was right in our faces). Could have been cleaner (especially the oven), and no dog doo in the backyard where we parked would have been nice. Was still good for the price.

Big hill to climb. Should have got a taxi.

Beautiful view of the river right from the huge windows in the kitchen. The view from the front porch is nice. I’m glad we were in the upstairs apartment. The furnishings were perfect for the style of the house. The family downstairs stairs were very sweet.

Excellent place to stay

We were in Astoria for a four day music festival. We didn’t spend a lot of time at this house. However, when we did we were extremely impressed by the updated furnishings. The view was amazing. We will definitely be coming back.

Overall good experience

The property could have been a little cleaner. Dog poop in the yard and cobwebs up high (we do understand they are in hard to reach places) and on the patio. We did find a big spider in the house. It was a great location and a fun old house in a quiet neighborhood. We would stay here again for sure.

A Peaceful Weekend Away

House was extremely clean and well-organized. Everything we needed was on hand and easy to find. Communication was great and the check-in and check-out processes were very simple. The house was in a quiet location but just a few blocks off the main drag, easily accessible to restaurants and shops. And the best part was the sea lion lullabies! Those suckers are LOUD. Would definitely stay there again!

We loved this sweet old space so much. It was easy to find and directions were clear for parking. The tenants below were quiet and I hope we were the same for them! We arrived at night and the key codes did not work for the front door (which is recommended when you first get there to enter this way), but the back entrance with less stairs to enter worked great, we were nervous for a moment! It's incredible to have three people and three bathrooms available, two of them full. We did the bridge crossing 10k race and we were very wet and cold afterward, and being able to take a shower and warm up in different bathrooms was amazing. We did not use the kitchen much but it was spacious and the views are beautiful. We loved hearing the sea lions call with the windows open. This time of year in October there are a lot of garden spiders all over the outside of the house just to warn anyone who might have a phobia, we did fine but we had to dodge them a little at different points when we would leave the house. We all felt like the beds were comfortable and we slept well. We did snuggle up one night and use the TV and Netflix account which was appreciated. We will absolutely come here again!

We had a comfortable stay in this nice victorian.

The upstairs part of this house was quite comfortable for the three of us. It was clean and nicely decorated. However, I did not appreciate the 2% hike in the price after I had booked it. I had made no changes in my end of the bargain.

Great view, spacious, nice furnishings

Near the top of the town, close to restaurants and shopping. Tenants live downstairs and were quiet most of the time; sometimes we could hear them talking, but that's to be expected in an old Victorian, and that means they could hear us. We have only one complaint: when walking from the parking area to the back stair entrance to the apartment, one needs to walk across the back lawn, and the flagstones that could be used are half-buried and not flat in the lawn, which has ruts and holes that one has to be very careful not to twist an ankle on.

A Peaceful Retreat

The house was extremely clean, well-organized and thoughtfully arranged. Everything we needed was on hand and easy to find, and what a delight to have a full kitchen! The house is tucked away from the main part of town, but easily accessible via walking (if you don't mind a few hills) or driving. We occasionally heard the tenants on the lower level, but the noise wasn't bothersome and didn't last past 8pm or so. Beds were all very comfortable, even the pullout. Would stay there again in a heartbeat.

Family fishing trip

Charming Victorian style decor. Quiet and comfortable. We found that the kitchen was cramped. Preparing food was difficult as there was only minimal utensils. Lots of steps to access home. Not recommended for older folks to climb. Beautiful view from kitchen! Repairs needed in bathrooms. Downstairs neighbors were great! Pleasant enough, but pricey for what we got in return.

Lovely Victorian in quiet, scenic location Tue

The Painted Lady earned her name for the vivid blue exterior which stands out in a quiet NE neighborhood overlooking historic Astoria and the Columbia River. The second story apartment has high ceilings, multiple tall windows and a Victorian ambiance. The kitchen and is a wonderful place to gather around the dining table for good food, conversation and views of the marine traffic below. Except for the dim bedside reading lights, it was perfect. Come prepared with food and drink because the closest grocery stores and restaurants are a minimum of a 10-minute walk away.

The Painted Lady needs a face lift

First the ok - the property was in a quiet neighborhood with great views from the kitchen. The coffee and tea supplies were abundant. There were lots of towels, bedding and the beds were comfortable. Now the not so good - when we arrived, the ensuite bathroom in one of the bedrooms had no functioning tub/shower and we were not advised of this prior to our arrival which we would have liked to have known about. The place needs a good, thorough deep cleaning. We wouldn't stay here again.

Unsafe home

The website photos were accurate and showed an older, unique, two-bedroom home. We enjoyed the view and the beds were comfortable. The home, however, was not safe. The front stairs were extremely dangerous, with the top step loose and attached with tar paper (see photo), loose steps which have tar paper and other debris piled on (photo) and a hand rail for the second story landing about 18" high. Inside there are two walls with exposed insulation and studs and a bathroom under construction (see photo) and another with black mold in the shower. Renting a home in such disrepair for over $450 a night was a disappointment, to say the least.

Interesting Place to Stay

Overall, we had a good time. The kitchen was very well stocked. There were games and nice bathrooms. TV with a Roku that was really neat. Shower water pressure was excellent. Atmosphere was quaint. The stairs are quite steep inside so it’s good to be aware of that. The amount of issues we had were small BUT READ CAREFULLY on the listing. The listing advertises a “library” with a pull out couch. There were 6 of us, and my girlfriend and I gave the two bedrooms to my father and my sister with her child. When we went to search for this library, turns out it’s actually just a living room with a bookshelf. We booked it in a bit of a hurry, but I think the listing should be changed to living room. Using “library” makes it seem like a separate room. So we had no privacy the whole trip. The only other thing I think could improve the stay is getting an ironing board, since there’s no access to laundry. Maybe a small vacuum too. Aside from that, everything was awesome. We loved the view from the kitchen and the cute porch. Nice walkable neighborhood in the evening. I would recommend staying here but just know, if you have six, people will be sleeping out in the open.

Lovely view, but needs some updates.

Pros: The historic painted lady is adorable, and has a lovely river view and lots of sea lion sounds. Communication and self check-in were easy to follow. We were able to bring our small dog, and there were thoughtful touches for her, like doggy towels and poo bags, as well as food and water bowls. The cleanliness was very good in the more important areas: bathrooms, kitchen, bedding, towels. The neighborhood was quiet. Cons: There are a lot of tchockies and fabrics throughout that are quite outdated and dusty, and there is a fairly heavy chemical cleanser/scent, so we had to keep the windows open to avoid headaches. We were also so disappointed that the clawfoot tub was not available for use, as this was a selling point for us. The main drawback was the beds; the mattresses are way too firm and broken down. I resorted to sleeping curled up on the couch 2 nights, just to avoid a trip to the chiropractor. For me, the cons outweighed the pros, so I will stay elsewhere on my next visit to Astoria.

Should be called the “Needs Painted Lady”

I spent a fortune on this place for our anniversary and I found it incredibly overpriced. The house appeared to be in a state of disrepair with large patches of paint missing on the exterior. The pictures led me to believe that there would be a large claw foot tub but it was overturned in the bathroom and totally out of commission. I’m a big fan of baths and there is no other tub in the other 2 bathrooms There was an odd musty smell and it just didn’t look very clean. The mattress was old and uncomfortable and there is no door at the top of the stairs which left me feeling like we had a lack of privacy. I stayed at a high end hotel earlier in the week for work and it was $200 less than what I paid per night at the Painted Lady. I feel sick about spending so much on an anniversary getaway for a place that fell so short of my expectations. I feel like I was misled by the pictures and highly disappointed.
