The listing was very accurate! Shannon was very accommodating and easy going and was more than happy to provide suggestions on things to do and see during my visit to Portland. The room had plenty of space--I recommend you spring for the upstairs if you're staying for more than a few days; you get you own private bathroom and one of the bed is ABSOLUTELY cloud-like heaven! Shannon has regular guests for the three spaces she rents out and the backyard is great if you'd like to read, relax, eat or maybe some yoga? Parking is plentiful on the street outside. There are steps you climb every time you come to stay, but they are well lit! Inside and out, I would recommend Shannon's rooms/garden house to anyone, unless, of course, you're a bit on the tall side. The cozy room that sleeps one has a daybed, very comfortable but it's definitely not for tall people. Luckily, I'm quite flexible so it worked out just fine. Shannon also has a guide for visitors that has all of her favorite things in Portland--very useful!
