My husband and I had a nice 2 night stay in the suite in Ali & David's home. The house is in a great quiet and friendly neighborhood which was near the bus line. David was there to greet us on our arrival which was very welcoming. He gave us great recommendations for area restaurants. We really enjoyed Old Salt Marketplace for dinner!! He also wrote out the directions for taking the bus which was very helpful. The suite was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The bedroom was well equipped with fans and a tower AC. We also enjoyed meeting Ali and talking "libraries and books"! David contacted me after we had left, to tell me I had left an item behind. He nicely made arrangements for us to retrieve the item on our return to the city.
We would highly recommend staying in Ali & David's suite if you want to stay in the NE neighborhood of Portland!
