Staying at Jenn's place was a great way to experience the city. She was very helpful, friendly and flexible. The house was clean, quiet and gave us the privacy we needed after a long days of "Portlanding".

We would definitely stay again!

The house is located in a really unique part of town, staying there gave us a perspective of Portland that would have gone unseen had we stayed downtown in a hotel. It's a quiet comfortable area with amenities close by. The Alberta arts district isn't as buzzed about as Burnside or Hawethorne, but it was easily our favourite part of town. The area wasn't annoyingly hip, sketchy or an isolated lifeless suburb. It's a really great mix of the things that you'd want when experiencing a new city.

If you're planning on staying at Jenn's place, make sure you have an understanding of the bus/max routes.The house is not super close to some of the "Must See" Portland institutions (Voodoo, Powell's Etc..) , but there is a bus stop 2 minutes from the house. Getting to all those things is easy when you know the routes.

Simply put, staying at Jenn's place is a great idea. You should do it.
