Dave and Silke's place and hospitality definitely deserve all the accolades they have received. They are extremely generous with their instruments, their time, and their knowledge. We were so comfortable (it was quite chilly in Portland the week we were there) in the apartment. It is very thoughtfully laid out for families, there is even a Portland nightlight. Our children loved playing the board games and adored the instruments. We loved how walkable the neighborhood is. Lovely restaurants (Wei Wei!), great grocery store, yoga studio, and gorgeous nature trails are all within an easy stroll. Definitely an Airbnb all around gem.
