My stay at Lori's place couldn't possible have been any better. Lori was very accommodating with my last-minute request for booking, she was very flexible about my arrival & departure times - and Lori herself is very nice and pleasant to be around. She is an excellent host that has all the bases covered, and she allows for you to decide how much privacy vs. interaction that you want. Her kitty is very sweet & friendly too.

Lori's house is really neat. Not just as in neat & clean (which it is) but also neat because it's a 116 year old house with a lot of history & character. Her house is nicely decorated; it's very warm & inviting. The bedroom is spacious with plenty of room for your suitcases, a closet to hang your clothes, a desk to work from, and a very comfortable firm queen size bed. Lori allows full access to the rest of the house, including cooking light meals in the kitchen. She even had space cleared out specifically to allow me to put things in the refrigerator.

The neighborhood is very quiet - the street has practically no traffic at all, and there is plenty of parking available at all times. She has an excellent strong WiFi signal throughout the house, and overall it is a very comfortable place to stay. If you're looking to stay in the St. John's area of Portland, I'd definitely recommend Lori's place to fellow travelers!
