My mother and I were visiting Portland. I used the air bed, which was very comfortable. The space is quite large, and it's clear Anne and Eric have put a lot of work into it to make it comfortable w/ eclectic art and bright colors. Great for a handful of people. There are some minor details that they are finishing up with the woodwork and such.

I wish I'd met Eric to talk about his shop. Looks like he's quite talented with woodworking and carpentry.

We were mostly in and out, spending most of our time in Portland. The space provided a nice place for us to recharge. We met Anne twice as we were going in and out -- we chatted and she asked if anything was needed. Otherwise Eric and Anne were out and about when we were coming and going. As mentioned in the description, they were very respectful of privacy and downtime, which we needed after enjoying lots of in-the-sun time walking around the city.

There is limited natural light. But they've put in larger windows in the bedroom.

If you have a car, it is very convenient to get into Portland. Quick drive via highway. I did not use public transport so I cannot speak to its convenience in that regard.

The basement does not have a separate temperature control. They invite you to turn on the whole-house fan if needed via an upstairs thermostat, which was usually left on until the evening.

The Tabor park nearby was very nice. Would be a great place for a run... huge trees, plenty of picnic areas, etc.
