We had an amazing 6 night stay at Joy's airbnb in Portland! The room (and house) was clean and comfortable. Joy, her husband Dallas and even her children made us feel so welcome the entire time while still respecting our privacy. They were able to help us with itinerary suggestions and we were able to see great neighborhoods we probably would have otherwise skipped over.
They location is fantastic as well. The only day we rented a car was to go out to the OR coast, the rest of the week we were able to walk everywhere we wanted to around downtown Portland and surrounding neighborhoods. Public transportation getting around is super easy and convenient from their home as well (.25 miles to the bus stop or just a few blocked further to the trolley line). Even the steps to and from weren't a big deal and it made us feel less guilty about enjoying all the great food, beer & wine while we were out during the day.
It was really nice to have such a great space to come "home" to after being out and around during the day. Whether it was an earlier night and we enjoyed a glass of wine on the deck over looking the beautiful city skyline or coming in a little later exhausted from seeing so much and just showering (private bathroom) and going right to sleep in the super comfy king bed; it was a great experience Joy, her family and her home provided for us. I would recommend this location to anyone looking to see Portland like a local and feel at home the whole time.
