The apartment is true to the description and pictures. The location is central to many restaurants and shops and within walking distance. Tonya was a great host and easy to work with when planning our trip. I was surprised to see the number of homeless people living in tents on the sidewalks nearby and the amount of garbage in the streets. I realize this is a complex issue and not anyone's fault in terms of the quality of our stay. This issue is all over Portland (not isolated to this part of the city) and nearby to many other Airbnb locations here as well. I just wanted to mention this observation for those who are also first time travelers to this city. The property itself was fairly priced and our host was excellent.
