Tim is a fantastic host with a wonderful shared-space and a knack for hospitality -- I could not have asked for more, especially traveling with pets. 'Check-in' was effortless with simple instructions to let ourselves in, and we were pleased to find a spacious and well-appointed room with everything we needed for our one-night stay. The room was minimal and modern, the bed was incredibly soft! It is hostel-style -- which ample bathrooms in the hallway -- and we had no issues sharing the facilities with the other guests (and the rooms had tons of space sans bathroom.) The patio was a great area to make plans while enjoying the mild Portland weather, and we met an awesome couple traveling from our region! Sasha, the sweet long-haired house-pup sometimes roaming around the property, got along great with my dogs. I really enjoyed exploring the neighborhood, It was great to be able to park and see(/drink) the neighborhood by foot. Multiple breweries (many with dog-friendly patios) within walking distance, along with tons of restaurants and shops. Great parks nearby to run the dogs. Overall we had an excellent experience; got a great taste of Portland before continuing on our road-trip to Washington, will definitely plan a longer trip to Oregon soon and hopefully stay at the 'Bali Hotel' again!
