If you’re looking for a cozy and welcoming place to stay in Portland, Leslie’s apartment is it! From the very beginning of our stay, we were impressed with how thoughtful Leslie was. Complimentary guest parking passes were provided for every day we stayed at her air bnb (5 days total) and we were able to use those in the neighborhood, which was super convenient. Although we never needed to reach out, Leslie was only a call or text away and we actually saw her a few times as we were coming and going from the apartment. Inside the air bnb, we found cold drinks in the fridge for us (beer, wine, Gatorade, etc) and a list of her favorite places to eat, drink and explore in Portland. The beds were comfortable and there were plenty of extra pillows, blankets and bathroom towels. There was a roku TV and we were able to watch whatever we wanted through streaming apps. There’s also an air conditioner unit in the apartment which saved us during the Portland heatwave. Outside, you have access to a shared backyard with beautiful plants and flowers and green grass. And there are chairs to sit outside in the morning and have your coffee. The apartment itself is a basement unit and there are residents who live upstairs that can be heard sometimes, but nothing outside of ordinary daily noise. It’s located in a fun and lively neighborhood, and you’re walking distance to several bars, breweries and restaurants. We will definitely stay here again and appreciate Leslie very much!!
