Jeff's place is spacious, comfortable, beautifully decorated, fully functional, and truly was a pleasure to stay.
Communication: Jeff was quick to respond and address any questions we have from the moment we booked till we checked out. he was friendly and helpful. we did not have too much direct interaction once we checked in, but the room came equipped with organized binder (!) with important information regarding the space, feedback/reviews from previous guests, and neighborhood recommendation. we were left with very little uncertainty and felt comfortable asking him any questions we had.
Location: the house is located in the NE part of Portland so it is advisable to have a car if you wish to travel to various parts of town. However, there was hardly any traffic and parking was easy (compared to LA...) during our stay. we also appreciated the fact that the house is located in a quiet, safe, and family friendly residential neighborhood that really gave us a sense of security and local flavors. they do have two dogs on the premise, but they are friendly and only bark a few times when you go in and out of the house. we slept soundly every night!
Space: while the space is in the basement, it did not feel claustrophobic or secluded. there are windows in the bedroom, the kitchen has plenty amenities to accommodate longer stay, and the bathroom is spacious. the space is kept extremely clean with tasteful decoration. the weekend we visited was unceremoniously hot but the AC kept us cool and comfortable all day. The bed was VERY comfortable. closet space was plenty. they also have a record player that kept us entertained all weekend. who doesn't love the 80s?
Our overall experience was just lovely! it is a great place for couple, friends, and dog-owners to stay. We would love to come back here again in the near future!
