Denise and Brian's place is perfect for a busy weekend visit in Portland, it was clean and comfortable and they communicated really well, we didn't have any issues but I imagine they would be on it if we did. They don't have a proper kitchen for cooking but that didn't bother us because we love to eat out in Portland! The only thing even a little negative I can say is that the foot traffic is pretty loud from upstairs, which is to be expected in a basement apartment, it wasn't a big deal for us, but keep it in mind if that's something that would bother you.
I love the peninsula park area and their house felt really safe, had ample street parking, and was close to many cool Portland amenities! We would stay there again!
