My husband, parents and I spent three nights here and loved every second of it. The house was perfect for our group and we felt very welcome from the get-go.

Eventhough we were getting in pretty late, Deb was kind enough to meet us out front, which was especially appreciated since we were having trouble spotting addresses in the dark! She was so friendly and helpful, telling us where we could get groceries and good places to eat, and even some history of the house.

The house itself was very comfortable and fit our needs well--with a big front sitting room and a decently sized kitchen we had plenty of room. We slept well and didn't hear any noise from the street, even though it is a pretty busy thoroughfare. The kitchen was well-appointed and we could have easily made plenty of meals there, if we had chosen to do so. Everything was very clean, which is not necessarily a given in an old house!

The neighborhood itself was awesome--walking distance to so many cool restaurants, shops, and parks, as well as transit.

We had a wonderful time hanging out in the front room and chilling on the balcony. My only regret was that we didn't spend any time in the beautifully landscaped backyard.

Thank you Chuck and Deb for hosting us and providing such a warm welcome to Portland. We hope we can return ASAP!
