This is a great central location if you’re wanting to be close to downtown but not fully in the area while also being able to access the sites of Eastern Portland.
The check in process was super easy, and I really appreciated that I was able to check in an hour earlier, since my friends wedding was at 4 PM and usual check-in is at three.
I really appreciated Johns timeliness and communication. It’s a great place for one person or a couple. I also was very glad that there was an AC unit for this place, especially given the heat wave while I was there. The window shades are also really nice and help block out the morning sunlight.
There is a large TV with various apps that you can use, and they also offer access to their YouTube live account, so you won’t miss any of your life TV shows or sports games.
When I checked in there were several fruit flies and a couple larger ones. It’s a little difficult to have those taken care of before a guest arrives, but there weren’t any paper towels or napkins to use to be able to squash them. The pillows for the bed were too soft for my liking, where there was no real structure once you laid your head on it, it just squished to a few flattened layers, no real “poof”. However the bed was very soft and comfortable. There are many other features that make this a good place if you plan on doing any cooking or laundry.
The only real issue I had during my stay was the Internet. The Internet was down for majority of the time I was there. I had Internet access the first night when I checked in but the following morning until I checked out the Internet was down. John was very helpful in trying to contact the Internet servicer, however the Wi-Fi router was not acting appropriately and I could not utilize Wi-Fi. My phone had limited signal in that area, so it was a little bit of a hassle not having Wi-Fi access for most of my time.
Minus the Wi-Fi Internet issue, this place was great. I appreciated the general features, style, layout, and location of this Air bnb.
