Marcelo's place was perfect for what we needed. My husband had a conference near the zoo and he was able to walk there each morning. It is in a great location or drive or use public transit to get to other parts of the city. His place was super clean, very comfortable, and provided plenty of amenities. The free on-site garage parking was amazing! Marcelo was also very flexible and accommodating when we found out our flight home was canceled and we had to rearrange our plans; such a great host. We will definitely look his place up again when we return to Portland!
