We had a wonderful stay with Joanne! As soon as we entered her home, we knew she would not be home, but to welcome us, she had lovely card in our room with a very generous welcome basket full of treats (much appreciated after our long drive!). Joanne's home is very clean and we appreciated having a private bathroom for our own use (definite bonus!). We also appreciated her generosity for including continental breakfast--especially GOOD coffee when she is not a coffee drinker herself!

Her garden is lovely and the neighbourhood is safe. We walked around the neighbourhood a bit and although it is primarily residential, we were within walking distance (15-20 min stroll) to restaurants, grocery stores, food carts and major streets.

You can tell a lot about a person from their home and we wish we could have spent more time getting to know Joanne! From our few brief encounters, she seems like a very genuine person with a big heart. :) We have nothing but positive accolades to say about our experience.

This was our 2nd time using airbnb and we had a wonderful experience! We will definitely stay with Joanne again next time we visit Portland! Thank you Joanne!
