I spent a week at Jenni's place, going up and down the hill to the nearby convention centre. She made my life a lot easier when she offered access to Portland's bike rental scheme. This is a sign of how thoughtful she is - nothing I asked about directions, local customs or using appliances was a problem. And she was happy to make some time to chat more widely. With New Seasons Market within 5 mins walk one direction, and the cafes on Mississippi Street 5 mins the other, it's a convenient local for both self catering and dining out. I'd happily stay with Jenni again.
