Alan was incredibly kind, welcoming and helpful during our very brief stay in Portland. He was able to give plenty of suggestions for us as we had never been to Portland before and he was super knowledgeable of breweries, restaurants and other hangout spots around town. The room is secluded onto its own floor of the house so it almost feels like your own separate hotel room and it has a separate bathroom so you never have to worry about disturbing anyone if you come in late. I would definitely recommend Alan's place to stay if you're going to be in Portland.
