I used airbnb for the first time in Portland, OR, and I stayed in a private room in Max's and Sam's home. From now on, when I travel,I will first research opportunities on airbnb rather than check into a hotel. The location was perfect...a nice, quiet neighborhood, within walking to great boutiques and restaurant. Max and Sam were both extremely friendly and helpful. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom private, the the linen sheets were wonderfully soft, and the price right. I would recommend Max and Sam to anyone traveling to Portland.
