Melissa was one of the best Airbnb hosts I’ve ever met (and I do a whole lot of Airbnb in various prices). She made me feel glad that I chose Airbnb over a hotel.
The neighborhood is so lovely and I enjoyed walking to all the nearby restaurants with my friend. Neither of us drive so this was important for us. Uber to go downtown was about 15min.
Side note: If you like Asian/Thai food, “Yui” is the best authentic Thai food I’ve ever had. Better than “Hat Yai”. My friend has gone to Thailand and said this restaurant is better than the ones she visited in Thailand. Amazing!! (Melissa’s recommendation :D)
Things to keep in mind is that the home is a little dark since it’s below the ground and has no tv. If that’s what you’re looking for, it may not be for you. Overall I would say it is a great place for the price range in Portland.
