Next time I'm in Portland I'll definitely try to stay here again! The host is incredibly nice, and while I just expected a room I didn't expect 5 star service. I got a bed, fresh linens, soap, towels. I got a binder full of local recommendations, and that's just what I found when I first entered my first night.
The place is definitely close to all forms of mass transit and to biking, it's also easy to via cab. It's admittedly a bit out of the way from the heart of the city but everything is accessible within a few blocks walk which makes up for it. Especially since the neighborhood is very quiet and you can get a great breakfast just 3 blocks away at Ross's .
It's especially a great place for nerds as the walls are covered with nerdy art. I knew I was in a great place once I walked through the door.
