This is a great stay in a lovely and busy part of Portland. Close to great brunch, dinner and drink places. Derek was very welcoming and straightforward with expectations for our group staying at the house, and we appreciated that openness. As others have said in the review section, the photos of the home do not do it justice. The house is very comfortable, clean, and spacious! Parking is very accessible even though it's a busy area. At night, it was very quiet and easy to get some restful sleep. The absolute best part about the house is the bathroom; the shower is awesome. It was nice to relax out on the porch in the morning with a cup of coffee. I would highly recommend a stay at Derek's place.
