My mom and I stayed in the Morel room of the 1234 House the weekend before Halloween, and it was absolutely perfect! The house is GORGEOUS (like, out of a cool indie magazine), and the art in every single room is stunning. I loved all of the individual touches (like the beautiful dining room table, with old radiators for legs! And the clawfoot tub in the upstairs bathroom! And the painted piano!). The Morel room has this perfect little sun room and porch that make every morning extra special. I made sure to sit out there every day, because the weather was wonderful during our visit. I was definitely worried about how my mom would react to her first Air BnB experience (she's not used to staying with strangers, and she's definitely not the most *hip* mom out there) but she absolutely loved that we were surrounded by other young people, and she couldn't stop raving about how special this home is. Evan is a thoughtful and generous host; he woke up before us every morning to make coffee, and sat with us in the kitchen to ask about our plans while in Portland. He even went so far as to gift me and my mother a CD of music he made a few years ago. SE Portland is lucky to have Evan and the incredible community that he's creating through this house. The vibe of the house is fun and communal, everything is neat and clean, and staying here--amidst all this art and creativity--inspired me revamp my own home so that it reflects the things I love. Thank you, Evan! I hope to stay at 1234 again!
