David’s basement unit is located in a house with its own private entry way. We arrived when it was 90+ degrees so we appreciated the AC in advance. We don’t have a thermostat to control the AC however. The toilet is part of the kitchenette area but has drawn curtains. It’s a little funky and not for everyone’s taste but we got used to it. The washer/dryer is big plus. We personally appreciates the house rules to take off your shoes before entering the living quarters. There is cable TV although I wish I could have logged into my Netflix or Amazon Prime for additional viewing options. The neighborhood itself was unimpressive but that is on par for many of the neighborhoods we visited. The amenities are fine and David even provided us a bottle of wine. Our original sleeping pillows were super flat but David promptly brought additional ones when we stepped out. It’s mostly a residential area with ample parking on the street. We had a car so it served our needs to explore Portland because most of the cool neighborhoods pretty close.
