This was my first time to Portland and I was grateful to be in a safe, quiet neighborhood. Kim and Carl's place is adorable, immaculate and well appointed. They very generously included a gift card to a wonderful coffee shop just two blocks away and because their place is located in a residential area, they even offered a free LIFT ride which was a pleasant surprise. They were great hosts and the upstairs location of their unit made it bright and cozy. I'd recommend them highly.
