First things first - Perfect location (especially if you don't have a car!). It's about a 5-10min walk to the "busy/high energy" streets without the noise - you still get the peace and quiet of a neighborhood to enjoy peaceful morning walks/jogs. Famous "must-do's/eats" like Salt n Straw is within the vicinity. Next to the house is also a park that leads to a gorgeous hike you should definitely go on! Secondly, the house is so cozy and CLEAN. I felt extremely comfortable and knocked out almost every night on the soft bed. More importantly, Laura is an amazing host. From the moment we entered her house, she made sure I knew where all the shops were/where to eat/transportation, etc; her recommendations truly added value to my trip. Laura is a kind, charming, beautiful soul and I would definitely come back here next time I'm in Portland. Joe, her husband is also super nice! Great energy all around the house. LOVE LOVE LOVE THEM AND THEIR BEAUTIFUL HOME!
