Stylish and spacious basement unit. Comfortable bed. Great shower. Snacks, tourist recommendations and books galore are a nice touch. I appreciated having a washer/dryer in the unit. Unfortunately, though, there isn't an oven. Other than that, the appliances all met my needs. St. John's is a great little community with restaurants and several grocery stores all under 10 minutes away. The host responded to my feedback about noise and inquiry about their stated quiet hours, and checked in a few times to see if it had improved after the first night. My most important advice to pass along: Be aware that the noise from upstairs REALLY transfers. There was a house/dog sitter there during my stay, and I heard every human and dog footstep, the dog barking, the TV, toilet flushes, and muffled voices. If you're someone who is okay working during the day and sleeping at night with a fan and/or noise machine on and/or with earplugs (all are provided in the bedroom), you'll likely be fine. I travel to Portland a lot, and I would stay here again in a heartbeat due to the convenient location for why I come to town and overall comfort, but the noise is the dealbreaker for me.
