The suite in Portland was very clean and large and had all the amenities listed in Ben's description. It was like staying in your own apartment with a well stocked kitchen and even had laundry facilities, which were most welcomed as this was the last part of our trip.

Street parking was readily available at all times of day, which was important to us since we had a rented car.

The access to public transportation was super easy and we rode the train into downtown Portland twice during our three day visit. Since the freeways can get quite crowded, especially during the morning and evening rush hours, it was great to have this option for getting around town.

We didn't meet Ben until right before we left, but he was very nice and we spent a good 20 minutes or so having a great conversation. He had also made himself available at any time by providing us with his cell phone number before we arrived.
