Joanne was a wonderful hostess and did everything to ensure that our stay in Portland was comfortable, fun, and informed. Although we didn't get to see much of her, she responded quickly to messages if we had any travel updated or questions (of which we had very few thanks to her detailed instructions).
The room itself was thoughtfully laid out with snacks, water, travel guides, and an incredibly thorough house manual that detailed everything from laundry to recycling to tourist activities. She also gave us plenty of privacy and although our paths didn't cross very much, she always made herself available to us if we ever needed her help.
The location itself is about a 20 minute drive from downtown and only 15 minutes away from the airport. We never had a problem
finding parking, and there were plenty for great cafes and coffee shops nearby. We gladly recommend Joanne's place to anyone and would definitely stay a again!
