Max and Alexandra made us feel very welcome with groceries and attempts to help with internet issues. However the important thing to know about this space is that you are in a basement of a home and thus are part of the house. Heating, cooling, cooking orders and noise are all shared. The first night we were exhausted and kept up until 11 by someone talking for hours and then when we asked about it, they said no one had ever complained?! Same thing with the second night with really strong cooking odors. Perhaps that is because the price is so reasonable for the area around the city of Portland!? although it should be noted that this is a pretty significant distance from the downtown area. If you are looking for a spacious basement apt decorated in a tired corporate style at a reasonable price and don't mind driving 15-20 minutes to be in town then go for it. The linens are tired and the sofas are soft. The tv is in the bedroom with another one but not positioned in front of a sofa. As air bnb host ourselves, we strive to provide our guests with nice new 100% cotton linens and quiet solitude and creature comforts. But we are all different and have different ideas and priorities for our air bnb spaces. Sorry but we will not be back.
