Once you stay with Kal, it’s going to be hard to give a 5 star review to other hosts. He is a PRO!
Kal’s house is neat, clean and beautiful. Everything is in the right place, and seems like it is cleaned at least twice a day. I like the decoration and the furniture.
The neighborhood is family friendly, but cool and hip. Close to division st and interesting places to feed your senses.
The bus stop that takes you downtown is a couple blocks away.
The room was comfortable, plenty space to spread yourself and your luggage. He advised that it was the coldest room in the house, but he had a warmer and a “heated mattress” ready, so it was not a problem. The mattress was fine, and sheets and pillows were clean an in excellent shape. We never felt cold (it was snowing!!).
The bathroom and the kitchen was always super clean and with everything available.
I recommend staying with Kal, it is a great place to stay -long or short- in Portland.
