Carol's place is fantastic! It's tucked nicely in NE district of Portland which is nicely accessible to downtown and other parts of the city. It's also got a number of restaurants a few blocks away.
Her place is fantastic and great for a group. We loved the living space for us to hang out, read, chat or play games.
Carol, herself, is a very admirable host with a wonderful story. She's very hospitable, caring and nice. She has a wealth of knowledge of the areas and tips in Portland - be sure to chat with her!
