This is my FOURTH time staying with Kate and, to my surprise, it just gets better and better. Kate is an expert host - she knows how to curate the Airbnb experience so it feels like a home away from home, whether it's thoughtful touches like stocking the room with local travel and hiking guides, ensuring the bathroom has a variety of toiletries you may have forgotten, or responding quickly to emails and messages. She is also gives such a warm welcome which always starts at trip to Portland off right!
