Emery was a very gracious host. He had great tips about things to do in and around Portland and was always happy to make additional recommendations. Staying here really feels like having a home away from home.

The house is quite old and the interior has been updated in a way that does not deviate from the charm of the property. Bathroom was shared with another room so key morning hours were broken up into alternating 30 minute segments for bathroom usage. Overall the system was fair and easy to follow. Accessing downtown Portland is a short car ride, bus ride, or walk/jog from the front door. Walking access is particularly good to south downtown and east Portland (via Ross Island Bridge).

Emery's cat was very friendly and easy to get along with.
