Where do I begin? As for the basics, the pictures of the house are very accurate. It's even more beautiful in person. Parking was very easy to find. I parked on the street right in front of her house. The city was about 7-10 minutes away. Her place is located in a great area! The temperature in the house is perfect. Not hot, and not freezing either.
As for the lovely hosts, Gina and London, they were wonderful! Gina has been hosting for nearly 5 years and it shows. The room is set up with books, magazines, recommendations on where to go, what to eat, and what to see. In the closet she has baskets of toiletries ranging from soap to q-tips. She left the towels neatly folded on the bed with treats to give to London, chocolates and earbuds in case you're a light sleeper. She woke me up with coffee, too! And a delicious bagel with cream cheese :)
Still reading? Excellent! If you have room in your life for more friends then I would 100% recommend you stay here. I fell in love with not only their home, but with Gina and London. They were the sweetest, kindest and funniest. I miss them already and it hasn't even been 24 hours! I absolutely adored my stay with them.
Fun facts: London LOVES snuggles. Gina LOVES London. They're both great listeners and so easy to talk to. I was only there for two nights but I know I will forever keep in touch with them.
You won't regret it! Stay with Gina and London if you want to have a good time in Portland :)
