Donald's place was indeed bright and cozy, although I'm sad to have missed seeing chickens out of the window, which would have been a true Portland experience :) Very comfortable space, nicely decorated, perfect location. Great communication, clear check in/out directions, thoughtful touches such as the stationary bike, coffee, bottles of water, books, toiletries, white noise machine. I'm a dog lover so occasionally hearing the hosts' dogs upstairs made me smile.
