We spent 3 nights at Kristin's lovely home in Portland. The home was spotless, and our room on the second floor was comfortable. The neighborhood had restaurants, coffee shops and bars, all within easy walking distance. Reed college is close by. Kristin gave us tips on things to do in Portland. There is an apartment house being constructed next door, so that may effect on street parking, but we would certainly return to Kristin's if we visit Portland again.
