Well, what can I say? Teresa is an awesome host and a truly ambitious person. I came to portland knowing absolutely no one, however I made a lot of connections, acquaintances and I am even building up a friendship with one other guest who stayed with Teresa. The place was always clean, the internet was fast and the area is amazingly laid back. She even invited me to an event, which I have yet attend, as I was slightly too busy with work (whoops!). The bed was comfortable and granted me a high quality sleep.

To conclude, if you want to stay in portland for a week or even a month, stay with Teresa. You'll make fantastic acquaintances (maybe even friendships) with the other people staying there and while the area is rather quiet and laid back, there are a lot of events, restaurants and other shops, which are only a few minutes away (walking distance). :-)
