Amy is a great host and I enthusiastically recommend working with her. She is pleasant, proactive, thorough and prompt in communication. I do not, however recommend this particular airbnb venue, the Multnomah Village Modern Retreat. It's in a great location in a beautiful yard and there were many nice features, including a great shower, full kitchen, comfy bed and many thoughtful amenities. However there were some annoying features which, for us, counterbalanced the good. Amy acts as host for venues owned by others and the owner of this venue is behind in maintenance, supposedly because there isn't time to fix things between guests!?! Only 2 of the 4 window shades closed completely , one only halfway, it looks onto the driveway between 2 garage / workshops where the owner as well as guests park. A guest should be able to expect window coverings to cover the windows, especially in a ground floor venue. I just taped up some opaque plastic I had with me. There are 2 closets with drawers but the drawers are full of linens and towels with no room for guest clothes. Since we were there 2 weeks, I moved some sheets into another drawer so I had room for my clothes. My husband kept his in his suitcase and used the luggage rack. In the other closet, with spare towels in the drawers, the drawers were all collapsed onto each other and couldn't be opened and shut. Tricky to get out fresh towels! A piece of art in the bedroom had been framed and hung upside down, a small thing but annoying to a visual person. Another small thing: the tv remote had been replaced so the instructions are no longer 100% accurate. We figured out the streaming fine but were unable to access the cable. Not a big deal, but I enjoy watching local news and programming when I travel. A few things that could be improved: The door window doesn't have any cover and it would be nice to have one just for the sake of ground floor privacy. There are 6 bright ceiling lights in the living room and 1 small desk lamp. The ceiling lights are way too bright for tv, but too dark off. It would be great if they were on a dimmer or if there was another lamp one could read in the evening by or have on for low-light tv watching. (We borrowed one from my daughter.) Again, the issues with the venue are absolutely not issues with Amy. She is a stellar host and I would definitely book with her again.
