On our family’s recent trip to the PNW, we stayed in three Airbnb’s and this was by far our favorite! Kim and Alex obviously thought this through for guests and have set up their basement to make your stay comfortable and easy. We were able to find free parking on the street in front of the house every night. The private entry on the side of the house had a keypad entry, and then you go downstairs to find the basement apartment. The stairs are somewhat steep, but carpeted and we had no trouble with them. The apartment layout includes two large comfortable bedrooms, an open living/dining/kitchen area (with a sectional couch you can be set up to provide another bed), a laundry room, and a very nice bathroom with a great shower (and great shampoos/soaps!). We found the apartment to be well-appointed and were especially impressed with all that was provided in the kitchen. We love coffee and found locally roasted coffee (and multiple choices for tea) and appliances to prepare your coffee at least three different ways; drip, French press and even espresso. Oatmeal and toppings, and common seasonings were also provided. Plenty of pots, pans, utensils, and all we needed to feel at home. We felt at home and enjoyed our stay at the purple house in Portland. Thanks Kim and Alex!
